Do we know yet when Karel is planning to pick these up?

He does pick-ups over the weekends, but hasn't confirmed when he will be picking these up as of yet to the best of my knowledge.

Looking at relise dates 3 out in a 2 week time fraim . All I know is they will arrive when they arrive safe sound and Bomb proof .

Think an 18 wheel HGV might do the job or an Australian one where the traylers are as long as the roads to fit everything in .

I was critical of the slip design when it was first revealed but I must admit this has turned out really nicely. I don't want to sound like a broken record but it would have been better with a title on the front. If I didn't already have the Zavvi edition, I would have definitely gone for this.

It would have been nicer with the blue tint that it has in the mockup... But it still looks beautiful

 

[Ultron96]

Embossing on the ear looks kind of weird close up... Or is it just me?

Beehive effect @earthscope

 

[lolwut]

As expected it looks even nicer than the mockup pic!

 

[hansgruber]

Can't wait till my copy arrives. The GB was closed by the time I joined but I was able to find a fellow member who is helping me secure a copy.

Most weren’t so lucky. I have seen many people looking seriously depressed for missing out and I feel sorry for the ones that will have to resort to eBay for this. The scalper prices for Filmarena releases have really gotten out of hand of late. The same few resellers are now just competing with each other on how ridiculously high they can get desperate collectors to pay for each release and this one will be no different. Its good to see Filmarena doing higher print runs on future releases because the only ones that profit off these small print runs are the scalpers.

Anyone had their shipped ?

Anyone had their shipped ?

People that ordered from FA directly? I'd imagine so.

Carllenc is picking up the GB copies this Saturday.

Why not email them and ask what's happening then? info [at] filmarena.cz
They reply quickly to emails in my experience.

I'm trying my hardest not to double dip on titles as much anymore. I have the German edition, but had to get this! Steelbook of the year! Hands down! And this edition just takes it to a whole other level.

This is my favourite FA steelbook from their collection from the lot a real beauty the slip cover is just simply beautiful.
