Just received my fullslip A2 and I'm kinda disappointed to be honest. The colors are muted/a bit too dark than what the BS shows.
The texture/finish is the same with their CA Winter Soldier, which is sadly prone to micro scratches

The magnetic spine lenti is too thick compared to Nova's. And Nova's appeared to have much sharper image than Kimchi's

Judging from Wreck's video and this A2 I have in hand, the best version is the lenti imo. I just hope Blufans double lenti will be as good or even better

 

[lgans316]

Still after the Lenticular. Anyone not likkng it please feel free to PM me.

I don't need the Steelbook and the spine magnet. Slip + Goodies alone would suffice.

Sad to hear. Those micro scratches are really annoying. I also had this on all Winter Soldier Fullslips.

Finally a glimpse of the A1 Slip. Looks amazing

Same here, the back of my Winter Soldier lenti had it the worst I just compared them with Nova's Avengers and Civil War slips which have the same finish and the scratches are almost unnoticeable on most Nova's, but they're pretty bad on most of my Kimchi's

I have no interest in this movie (one of Marvel's weakest IMO), but this has to be a big contender for edition(s) of the year... they all look amazing!

I too think it is one of the weaker films in the MCU. I thought it was ok but more of an excuse to showcase special effects, I enjoyed it overall though.
For me I am a completionist when it comes to the MCU purely as they all link together and ultimately will all feature together soon and therefore will own at least one copy of every film (although I have several due to the artwork lol).
I have stopped collecting other films and my main focus now is on obtaining the MCU movies through premium releases. I still have a few gaps in my collection such as the Blufans Civil War Iron Man lenti and the Nova Civil War lenti for example but I will get there I hope.
Dr Strange release do look amazing though, yes. Absolutely stunning.

Yeah, the effects were amazing... story-wise I didn't think it was anything too special though. I've only seen it the once anyway, so will give it a second chance at some point and hopefully enjoy it more!

So do you only go as far as one premium edition for each movie, or do you buy them all (Kimchi, Nova, BluFans etc.)? I started collecting all the WWA ones a while back, but I've grown bored of the MCU now, so don't really bother anymore.

 

[DJHilalo]

Glad I opted for what I think is the best of the bunch, Type A Full Slip... holofoil goes well with the artwork and it's the only one that is unique and different to Blufans slips which I've one-clicked

Hope it shows up soon though

I started with Play editions... then moved onto Zavvi... then discovered the Asian releases that completely caught my eye. I collect as many editions of the MCU as I can afford at the time. The majority are Nova and Blufans, a couple of Kimchi editions and the rest Play and Zavvi. I collected the first wave of Zavvi's and then again the second wave with the lenti magnets. There are probably collectors here that have every edition going, I have a lot but I as I say I have a few gaps to fill yet. The recent Age of Ultron release from Nova I skipped on because Ialready have the previous ones... but I will likely want them eventually lol.

It's one of those decisions where I have completely stopped collecting other movies (every retailer) and saved money there in favour of only the MCU and DCEU. The latter not being as strict on. If I can get at least one decent release of the DCEU films then I will be happy, but for me it's Marvel that is the big one. I'm not even fussed about X-Men really or the older Spidey films etc. It's purely the MCU itself that I absolutely enjoy. Throw Deadpool into that too lol.

What are you up to in your MCU collection?

Got my Lenti yesterday thanks to the awesome @cooey The Lenticular is amazing and the colours really shine through once the shrink wrap is removed A very clear, crisp and deep lenti from Kimchi. Very well done The circular window on the back has very subtle holofoiling, as well as being spot glossed and slightly raised/embossed. The same treatment goes for Doctor Strange himself (bar the holofoil). Background is matte. The magnetic spine is Kimchi's first and I think they'll improve on them (hopefully) as this one is too thick and quite blurry to look at. The ones offered from NM are much better, IMO. All in all, very pleased and I can't wait for Blufans to have a direct comparison with the Lenti's Kimchi Vs Blufans Lenti showdown

(Forgive any bad lighting, was a dull day when I took these)

Awesome PET @Flloydo

That sounds expensive lol. Seriously though, it's cool to find a franchise or "series" of steels you like to collect... I'm the same with Mondo X, and have also been considering collecting all of Manta's DC releases (I'm currently only missing Suicide Squad, mainly because I wasn't a big fan of the film).

Play is where my Marvel collection started too... man, I really do miss those days. I own steels for all of the MCU movies (I think), but the majority of them are the boring WWA releases... in fact, the only premium edition I have is BluFan's GOTG. Pretty sure I also have Zavvi's lenticular Ant-Man steelbook, since the WWA steel was awful IMO.

Okay, so I decided to just get off my arse and go take a photo (apologies for the quality -- the lighting is crap here at the moment) of my pathetic Marvel collection for you...

Haha was wondering who'd be the first to comment on the fact they're in the wrong order... if I were a betting man, I'd be rich for guessing it'd be you!

My entire collection is a mess right now though... they were in order once upon a time, but lately I've pretty much just been sticking them in anywhere as I've shuffled stuff around a lot. I suppose I can at least sort the Marvel ones out in a sec though, just for you.

lol first thing I noticed too

I like that you have them in order of the bundles of films, sequels together etc

Mine are in order of film but your way looks cool

(Deadpool Inbetween strange and guardians freaks me out a little too lol)
