I would grab this as well if there's any GB for it.

Maybe I'm not THAT ready as @milky is, , yet I would not mind a GB for this either, @apsmith21!

would also take 1 copy @apsmith21

For a GB like this one I'm not going to be able to do bulk returns. If something comes in with a slight amount of damage would that be ok?

Damages of the packaging... almost yes... damages of the SteelBook itself, certainly not (no offense).
Thanks for heads-up, Andy (@apsmith21)!

Did you happen to get many damages on such order from this supplier?
And what if from the bunch you order, just few are damaged, can't just those go back?
Or, maybe you can order smaller batches, and then you can return if those are not good[GREAT] when arrive?!?

Just saying, maybe there's a way...

I’ll order from Walmart

Never have problems with returns.

Smaller retailers don’t like big orders with returns

There should have been spot gloss on the fireflies and text, but still a nice steelbook.

Quite happy with that. Lovely spot glossing, but I also was hoping for it to be the fireflies. It surely would have been the obvious choice for it. But hey...

I don't think it's spot gloss, just metallic.

I think metallic is the right choice but imagine spot gloss would have improved it further.

Anyone know a foolproof way that we can get this across the pond without getting mashed into a million pieces?
Missed the group buy.

WowHd have it, they send stuff in weird heatsealed corrugated cardboard packaging. Only had one boo boo which was probably due to the postal strike at the time( stuff literally piled up).

I'm not confident in that packaging but I've noticed they've started sticking an extra sheet of cardboard inside and so far none of those have been damaged so maybe it's good enough.

The fireflies have metallic finish, but the 2 characters and grass have spot gloss.

Nice, I hadn't noticed. I'm looking forward to seeing it in hand with some decent lighting then.
