I think BF is better.
Kimchi strong point is lenticular effect that in my opinion looks beter.
But BF have better steel arts, full slip (that i am a fan of) and aditional goodies.

Main judgement will be in hand.

I think we will need to see both lenticulars in hand. I think the Blu-fans one may be better than the kimchi but hard to tell yet.

I'll be glad to have the extra Steelbook (V1/V2) when they start re-releasing Ironman in 4K. I can buy the inevitable 4K Amaray and put the discs in the empty steelbook.

The kimchi lenti wins by miles for me but as for the steel it's clearly blufans!

I bet that it's impossible to bit

I was disappointed by Kimchi's lenti effect, so I'm hoping BF is better/not as blurry.

How you can judge lenti effect if you don't have this in hand ? Will see when they come . Atm I'm happy KimchiDvD and Blufans Take different directions for steelbook artwork , shame they use similar art for slip .

are there any pics yet of the 1/4 slip version?

 

[Sigill]

I think the Blu-fans one works from right to left rather than up and down looking at the pics. I must admit I wasn't blown away by the Kimchi one, I'm hoping this one is better.

Not that have been shared yet

I really like this. I am a new collector, am I over paying at £60

That depends where you are getting it from. There was a GB on the forum where you could have got it for cheaper than that but I think all the spots are taken now. I'm pretty sure when they first hit ebay the prices are going to be high so that may not turn out to be too bad a price.

I paid £46 for both V1 and V2 over on the other forum's GB. I don't think £60 for what I assume is an eBay purchase is that bad at all.

Best looking Iron Man steelbook I've seen to date!

 

[razr24788]

V1 case rocks love it slightly more than v2 for the smoothness without the embossing and border much cleaner look, if this is considered error design more please blufans and at $10 bargain of the century for as steelbooks is concerned. It sucks though having the same lenticular as kimchi's I will have the play version on display with this and kimchi which is just too similar overkill with the same artwork I would lose it though if their 1/4 slip is the same as kimchi as well and why they taking so long to show pictures of it.

 

[chris lawson]

yes this is an ebay purchase. Thanks for the advice

Looks like invoices will be sent out this weekend for the HDN GB.
