If that's going to be the lenti, then colour me unimpressed. I know it's only a basic computer rendering but I don't want a static pose of Deadpool looking like an action figure as a lenti
Don't quote me on this... but I think they render them like that to begin with just to get all the details in etc. and then pose them after.

Have we an example of a previous lenti that's been created this way or is this a first?

I expect all this will bump up the price a fair bit.
 
Depth Lenti will add 200 CZK to a FAC price, Filmarena previously stated.
Tried it with revenant but was not ready if i remember right.An if that is the case a depth lenti is not worth extra 200 czk.Hope FAC dont start bumping price for that.I think a few people will not be happy with that move

I am very happy with the transitional Flip/Flop effect Lentis, they are more fun :woot::rofl::wacky:

Not to my knowledge... it honestly never even crossed my mind that anyone would bother to make them that way. We don't know for sure that it is for the lenticular yet though... but if it is, then the lenti effect should be one of the best out there, since they're creating an actual 3D render of Deadpool, rather than using a flat image of him that's then cut up into sections (how I imagine they usually make them).

And me if it means 200 czk less:wow:

Yes which is about 8 US dollars more than the others. Depending on the actual pose of him I might like it but I also just fine with the flip flop lentis as well. I actually love the magnet lentis more than the lenti slip boxes.

Already the price is very high and now they say it will cost 200 CZK for a depth Lenticular. Very nice of them.

These cost more to make than the flip flop images. This is something new they are trying which is fine and people have asked for and complained that they don't do 3D depth lentis. So now when they do people complain about it costing more without taking a look at that it costs more to make. I bet this will still be cheaper than blufans releases but yet no one rarely complains about their pricing. And we won't know the price of the editions as of right now anyway. looking at past Gbs prices range from 912czk to1012czk and I think that's because of a 3D disc or something like that so with this we might have a price of 1300czk. If that's to much then don't buy it but I think for what they are doing price they pay for everything and the time it takes to put these together and pay their employees it's a reasonable cost

You have some fair points but look at the UK threads and see how price sensitive people are.

Film Arena started off well with their pricing. I am not sure what happened but gradually they increased the price and now it is costing at least £10 more than it used to even for a single disc title. Also the weak £ is not helping us collectors in the UK which is forcing some of us to try our luck elsewhere which is actually working pretty good for those with loads of patience and perseverance.

What we want is those quality £10.99 Play.com and £25 FAC Steels in this over saturated market.

We don't want this don't buy it advice. Retailers are of course a business to make money but they have to be mindful about their customer base and themselves as it will affedt both sides in.the long term.

Well unfortunately the weak £ has nothing to due with film arena. And you guys complain but is Americans who buy steels from the uk are happy as t costs us less to buy them now so the difference in currency isn't a very valid point. I do feel for you guys haveing to spend more but for me it's a blessing as now when someone. Sells a release for 50£ it dosnt cost me 80 anymore. Most film arenas I've paid for have cost me between 35-44 dollars paying through group buys which has fees in it. And since we arnt sure how the lenti will be on a full slip or be a magnet lenti like normal. Isn't the kimchi kinda like a up and down slide.what else does it come with? And you said its 35 ok so a couple dollars more for novas wouldn't be a huge difference now would it. And differnt counties have differnt taxes and such thy have to pay as well as labor prices. So you can't really compair kimchis price to fas price like that to much more involved in it. Kinda like blufans avengers mondo everyone pissed at the price but don't take into consideration all the cost to actually release it by blufans. Until there is more information about it we can't really say it's gonna be a lot more than without it and 200czk isn't much more for a 3D lenti.
 
Depth Lenti will add 200 CZK to a FAC price, Filmarena previously stated.

Damn forgot about that :(

Sounds like a ridicolus cost bump if you ask me

I've said it many times but some amaray lenti slips have amazing depth and they are not priced differently to the majority of other blu Rays (unless it's a Marvel film etc).

Well I know there is someone who sells lentis on eBay there like 15 bucks a peice. So they are adding 8 bucks to the price Not a big upgrade. Yes you can get smart with lenti slips some better than others and they are not much more expensive normally 3 bucks but you also have to look at the fact of how many are purchased for those edtions compaired to purchaseing say only 500-1000. The more you buy the cheaper they get its called bulk buying. say I sale x product for 10 dollars. Profit is say 4 dollars. You come in and ask for 100 no problem but someone comes in and asks for 100000 and wants to get the best deal possible if be more willing to sell for a cheaper price prob 8 bucks because selling them individually would take a lot longer. I mean do you think the 3D rendering they are doing if free as well?
