Man, I am really interested on what Blufans will do with a Double Lenticular assuming Nova Media's images are ruled out (and one of those images being the actual Steelbook cover). I'm assuming all art is already approved and should be shown before the April 19th date.

Some ideas for the Lenticular(s):

1) Dancing baby groot on the back
2) Starlord with the ol' middle finger gag
3) Guardians on front / Villains on back

Also, cheers to everyone getting in on the Group Buys. Personally, I can only afford one and will wait for Artwork before joining.

it doesn't mean because they gave us the type of versions that we will see a mockup of each of them that shortly,
Blufans has not even established a price for purchase within China

And used Artworks are not ruled out, they still can use a Lenti that Nova did, perfect example they used ''Kimchi's Frozen exclusive Lenticular'' to use the same Lenti on Frozen Blufans Elsa Lenti (Elsa Version and Lenti Elsa on the Ultimate Edition)
 
For those of you with a lot of questions ...

I'm taking a list and then tallying up and passing forward to blufans here in next couple days ... should there be any problem they'll let me know. For now my list has no cap, but since its 1x copy limit of each edition that in itself is a cap. If at a later point I can offer ability for 2x etc. then the list will be informed.

There didn't need to be an initial alert warning of this group buy despite its popularity (which is my fav movie of 2014 and many of yours) ... simply because the limit of 1x imposed and that I plan to run the GB threads for a couple days then LOCK and report.... then reopen if need be. ... So yes hopefully no one is cut from list but that wasn't ever discussed. When a cap is needed like on the Captain America's they have told me up front ... Blufans has been very good about that. So if I had a cap to enforce I would have ... but I'd like to think the 1x limit is a cap in itself. *shrug*

Yes they go UK hub or myself as the GBs suggest. As far as USA I've never been hit by customs .... ever. I know that happens more often in the EU tho, but we've had great luck thus far. If there were customs then it could be split upon total amount of people.

I do this so that our Ninjas and audience can have a chance at these nice editions ... For those who have been in the previous Marvel BluFans GBs here they can attest to the level of customer service they've received.

Collect on my Ninjas!

I think group buys on the fly is necessary from time to time and rewards members who frequently visit the forum.I for one didn't find out until after I got home from work.So be it.You can't be the early bird all of the time.I will continue to support unannounced offerings on the forum.It's like a surprise party.One that you didn't expect but in the back of your mind,you kind of knew something was brewing...I think it was great.As far as limits,I know blufans would be more than happy to fill the 4000 units immediately if they could.The more the better.

I was just in the right place at exactly the right time. 10 minutes earlier or later and I would have missed out by several hours from the go live time.
 
I was fortunate to get in early and get a spot for one Ultimate Edition. This Ultimate edition is a must-have for me since GOTG was my favorite movie of the year. Very much looking forward to getting it in the near future. Congrats to everyone who got in on the GB and especially a big thank you to Wreck for hosting the GB. All your hard work is very much appreciated.
 
@SteveO My friend, you need to have 20 non-spammy posts to go to the group buy section to request an order.
Jump into the conversations on the site, and you will have enough in no time!;):D
People are friendly and will help you with any questions you may have!:thumbs:

Thanks again, Wreck. We appreciate it!

At this point in time everyone on my GB should be fine. I will be locking the thread this afternoon (1600 GMT) and the amounts will be submitted for approval. If we are allocated more, then the GB will be back open. However, as mentioned previously and by @Wreck anyone who has put their name down now should be fine to have secured their copies so please don't worry. If there are any problems etc, these will be addressed as and when is necessary.

All EU will come to me, I then repack and ship out to you. With Captain America there was no custom fees, so touch wood this will be the same again.
