- The steelbook illustration is by Krzysztof Domaradzki.
- The artwork for the slipbox was used previously for the Oldboy vinyl LP. It was co-ordinated by Nicolas Winding Refn, the director of Drive, and illustrated by Laurent Durieux. The director of Oldboy Park Chan-wook wanted one of our editions to feature this artwork so we reached out to Milan Records and illustrator Laurent Durieux. You'll be able to see more of the artwork since parts of the top and bottom were cropped out for the vinyl LP.

Collectors Box Set if they change their minds about international customers been allowed to order
This will only really benefit USA customers as they can import goods to lot higher value before tax payment is required

EU countries you would have parcel sent to customs pretty much guaranteed and be hit for Vat as the size and weight of the parcel be very hard to avoid it been sent to customs and price be questioned
It would be risky for them mark the value low on this as they would risk customs taking action against them

The only way to avoid that would be put the real value on the customs label and let customers pay the vat and handling charges with their postal service provider

It could end up a very expensive release after taxes are paid and If price is over €150 you would have customs duty as well to be paid

Good morning. Plain. We always work on Blu-Ray, and many show interest in mind. Thank you.

The Harvest Festival holidays due to pre-Singh Factory production line is compared to last year is much better, the period of production of the usual 4 times closer. We will be informed that the singh, existing from Taiwan to Japan to change urgently The Production, but progress, holiday logistics with the customs and a fresh singh factory due to the change of the intellectual property of the content in the process of income was asked to check the new copyright document verification process. to add a time.
The result of this disk settlement and rap ping alone and leave all the packaging is ready at the end of the current point today to pre-Singh disk to be passed by necessity, and the release date back a week.
Holiday After 19 ~ 20 disk in the entry will be made, and the other stars if no problem 26 days out and deliveries, and to be able to complete. Great holiday in holiday oil related with the company for the preview of the first check in, they stand lazily, due to release a performance about the sincere apology to you. Late, as long as a careful packaging and safely through the number of products to it I will do my best.
2. Steel Drum Limited Edition free order schedule

Established Holidays and kip case limited edition shipping jobs as a result of the delay the start of the harvest festival expected schedule for than immediately after the delay, and apologies to the district.

Ha,

Always have fun reading those translations lol

I'm all over the durieux slip box to match my vinyl.

Not really feeling the other two. Don't mind the purple

If that blurred image mid hammer scene was used that was posted on the last page or a few pages back then i would of gone for that. Love that art.

PURPLE PURPLE PURPLE!

Is the purple one the PET sleeve? Could it be?
Hope not, I'd be happy with a matte with gloss highlights for that. The left one could work well with a red PET over the artwork if the underside was full colour
If no live pics are posted by Plain before pre-order I could end up going for a one-click as I'm undecided!
 
on FB : PLAIN ARCHIVE's response about 1/4 Slip :

We're discussing internally whether or not we should continue releasing 1/4 Slip Editions.


If there's a substantial demand, we will definitely consider releasing 1/4 Slip for Oldboy Steelbook.

We'll let you know once we come to a conclusion.

Thank you.
 
With a print run this big I doubt anyone will have any issues ordering direct.
Even hours maybe even days after pre order date
 
I'm really hoping they release a 1/4 slip version. I have all the other 1/4 slip releases and would like to continue my collection. I do like the purple version the best!:)

I can't see this steelbook selling 6,000 copies. I can foresee this being available for months to come.

I'm now swaying to the purple but the finish on the vinyl slip could be very creative

Need to see actual pics before I decide which I assume will happen with PA
