LOL @C.C. 95 That's so painfully accurate. The "financial planning" would just be a direct debit for new steelbooks. And a reminder that I have negative dollars due to all the steelbooks I buy. :p

So...anyone getting the "all three" option for this release? ;)

what is funny is that people were complaining about the walkman design and it became the most selling steelbook for MArvel, I think it is a GREAT concept. So what if it is not exactly like in the movie, it does capture very well the spirit of the movie. And how many steel we can truly say does capture the spirit of a movie with a simple steel ? I think even all the complaining boosted the sales lol it got people interested and after that people were throwing themselves left and right trying to pick up many different versions...

and you are absolutely right, if it were reversed and Blufans would have done the Walkman design as a WEA, people would have been jumping for Joy for the Blufans Walkman(and I am talking same exact design).

I mean I am sorry but Taiwan for me is the creme de la creme for the slip to go with the nice WWA steel, it's just so well though of, great great 1/4 slip, amazing i'd even go that far !
I actually went Taiwan on pre-order for that one because of your rants about the Taiwanese 1/4ths, @Actarus!
:LOL: (Seems like a long time agoooo!!) we need a ripple effect emoticon for remembering the past!!:hilarious:

you're a wise man :thumbs: ...that slip is to die for and goes sooooo well with the steel....Taiwan has the magic touch to take a WWA and making a slip that will make it worth getting... one of my favorite Taiwan release of last year along CA2, those 2 steels are just little gems...
 
Because it was the WWA steel, and despite some not liking it, some/many like me loved it. This one that you seem to not like was the highest/fastest selling steelbook for Marvel.

Further more, if all steels were alike, there would not be room for WEA artwork as Blufans is doing with this one...

so if it would have been this one Art from the start, it would not have been Blufans

i think the universal appeal and broader availability of gotg made it the best selling
dont get me wrong i like the tape deck and although it does make sense and is in the spirit of the movie it seems a bit vague and underwhelming
what would be interesting is if these two designs were simultaneously released
i can tell you i definitely prefer this design
 
In case you missed @Wreck earlier poster, everyone on the GB before we closed them have their quantities confirmed :D

There may be the chance of getting more copies but this is not guaranteed and we will update you guys as and when we get the info :)

@cooey don't you think be worth putting that info for those that havent seen it in the op under the groupbuy links then some people may come back nearer that date as a thought.

basil :thumbs:
