Still not really conviced by the finish of this hardbox. :(
On this pic for example, we can see that the sheet with artwork is very thin and we can see all the details of the cardbox under it. The fullslips are made with very high quality so why not such a level for the hardbox? I really hope that the delay for Sicario's hardbox is to allow FA to find a solution in order to sell us a release with higher quality than for this one.

The Mockup we have seen indeed showed lots of quality issues, but This is FAC and their Quality Control is absolutely Fantastic !
I am sure they will improve from what we have seen as I cannot believe they would allow Poor Quality Finish like that.
They will receive a lot of negative feedbacks if not, they will get their act together no doubt.
I have Faith :thumbs:
 
I received my Love, Rosie (together with Last Stand :drool:) on Friday. Single Editions are great as always, but I have to say that I`m a little disappointed by the Hardbox. First, I love the John Wick Box, that was something really nice and a great collectible. Sadly producing them must have been really hard and expensive for Filmarena, which brings us to the new Hardbox Design. A box in which you can store both editions sure is nice, but I think the end product is not what you expect from Filmarena (especially after that insane awesome John Wick Box). I`m not sure what cardboard was used but it seems that it was wavy and had some blemishes (my front has some really ugly lump on the nose of Rosie). I think the workmanship is not 100% clean, I don`t like that they taped down the image in a way that the start seems to be on the spine side (see my picture 2, should be clear what I mean). None of my Anime DVD Boxsets have that problem. I`m also a little concerned about the fact that the Slips are so tight together. The Back of 1 Slip will press to the front of the other, since the Numbered cards are on the back they could leave some small denting to the front of the other Slip.

Anyway, what I really like about the Hardbox is the Stickers Filmarena made. You can see these in the post above mine. I like that they identify the box and especially the individual Editions.

Here are a few pictures

Damn, that dude in Love, Rosie looks like Hugh Grant's son!
...And I am still waiting patiently for the giant battle royale between Lilly Collin's eyebrows and Cara Delevingne's eyebrows. Foreheads of Fury!!!

Its what I was scared about for the hardbox, that both copies being so tight together that the numbering card of 1 would make an indentation on the other one.

:confused:
 
Damn !
I wanted these ones so badly that i would be very disappointed if full slip 1 is damaged because of an indentation ...
I hope this default is very minor on a few copies.
