Not sure if I'm missing something here, is there any reason you are in on the other GB and not the one on HDN?
Reason is simple
I will get delivery lot sooner
I already got delivery of Blufans Iron Man on 9th of Feb
Majority of the allocated stock is with BD Forum GB
It used to be that the main GB was on HDN with the same person but that changed last year for reasons already explained by HDN staff

You will see the majority of steelbook collectors pick the BD Forum GB for Blufans releases for now
That of course may change over time if HDN Group Buys get allocated more Blufans stock and shipping is quicker
Also we are waiting for Blufans setup their delayed international on-line shop we are still waiting to happen and would mean collectors could purchase direct with Blufans

It all down to supply and demand and delivery
Most Collectors will purchase a release from a supplier that gives them the best chance to secure a release and get delivery as soon as possible

Cheers Paul, does that mean even though I'm on the list for copies through this site, there is a chance I won't get them?
 
Why can't they be on the "other GB" when HDN didn't have it until later?

Why miss out on an opportunity?

yeah i made the list on other site was worried for a bit just cant wait to get these.

now only have to worry if i made the list for thor 1 & 2 and hope i make it on time for GotG GB!



why does it matter which GB we are on as long has we are on one that's what matters
If you read my question correctly you would of noticed I didn't say they shouldn't be ordering from elsewhere, I only know of this site so I was asking what the difference was
 
Hey guys, please feel free to direct your HDN GB related questions to @Wreck as he's the one who's taking care of this and not to other members who may give you unintentionally false information. Thanks.
 
to my knowledge ill b doing a gb on all marvel offerings ... its just been one hectic ride as instead of kowing what all was going to be available from the beginning stuff keeps getting added on (editions) which when conducting a group buy makes for a hectic ride. The list you thought you were maintaining keeps changing.

if something changes ill post about it in that gb thread.
 
Finishing plays a big part. In that sense the WWA wins. Oh, forgot to add the Nova release > BF at the moment. No show of the title is still disappointing but it is compensated by a quality finish. However I am sure BF can be custom glossed to match the WWA.
 
CA2 WWA with Gloss Finish > CA2 BF

Agreed :thumbs:

I disagree, I greatly prefer the title on the spine and I believe the BF release will have WEA on the inside. Not to mention we might get a sweep full slip.

The WWA steel is FAR superior in terms of Quality, Insane Gloss Finish, Embossed and Debossed treatment superbly done (BF will not have such, will be different as it was stated earlier) and if we go into a specific release, the Taiwan edition had an exquisite 1/4 Slip that matched the steel perfectly with Traditional Chinese Characters...Not to mention the other countries(like Nova with Their Slip)etc...

The Blufans Steel CA2 itself if kinda ''blah'', I think ''Captain America'' Blufans looks nice ! but CA2 it doesn't pass with me poorly done - I find it looks too similar to what was already out there, there is no WOW factor...and can we call this a Wea ? o_O
I don't think a title on the Front and spine(FS/BB have already done that) and a ''Blufans Slip'' can make up for an average Steel(SlipCover will be very similar to pictures we have already seen as they have to chose from a catalog of already approved pictures and can make only minor adjustments). So it's not that much a Wea Release.

For me, I prefer Blufans CA to the WWA... better inside photo, a fantastic sticker, nice embossing, and nicely designed discs complimented with an awesome lenti. Very nicely done. I wonder why this awesomeness wasn't put to the Blufans IM lenti.

BLUFANS all the way.
