Looks like individual slips for this one aren't getting jcards. Guess that's just a WB requirement, and Gaumont don't care.
 
FS arrived today.. its rather poor unfortunately with super weird cookiecutter bossing (you'll wonder whether its scratches or bossing) and no details on the black areas... leon and matilda look like cutouts that have been glued on the background :/ steelbook is alright, but a little washed out/pixelated

well manta was on a roll the last 5-6 releases, so it had to stop eventually

Well, you must have had a pretty good reason for picking the loser editon in the first place.....:whistle:
 
All I’ll say is I’m glad I’m keeping my zavvi order. Hopefully the single lenti turns out better than the DL and FS

That´s what happens when they rush out new release every month or faster, the quality goes down :/ ....quality of the back asteelbook artwork is laughable

And I was so upset I couldn't order directly...
Well, I got an SL from KOSM's store, and I think I picked the best version, as always.
Plus we got that EverythingBlu edition to look forward to!

tbh the quality of the full slip is as good as always, intricate embossing on the background, spotgloss, scratch-resistant coating, etc etc.. it just doesnt work altogether somehow

but maybe with more time, they wouldve redesigned the slip..

Link? I missed this one. Not sure how I missed this I haven’t missed one in a while except all the Matrix editions had no interest.
Although almost purchased the 1st one, the rest are trash, just my opinion which is clearly the minority.
