The disc will be the same as the new US Special Edition

Here's something that's made me very happy. From the PR company -

Hi Matt,



I hope you are well, please find attached the press release for Pain & Gain. I am pleased to confirm that the UK release will feature the same extras as the US special edition release.



Kind Regards



Kerry


Latest update from Zavvi
Still waiting on finalised artwork.

The finishes are overall matte varnish, except for a spot UV gloss on Mark and Dwayne on the front cover.

There’s a pantone red on their names on the front cover, and emboss on the title treatment.

Confirmed as 1000 units only and from the traffic and questions we are getting, think this will only last a couple of days at the most before selling out.

I wasn't sure when i ordered this one ( because of 24 £, bit pricey) but after i read this thread im sure now ive got a grail !!! Hehehe:hilarious::hilarious::champ::ass:

Lol. If Pain & Gain Zavvi becomes a grail, I will completely lose my faith in this hobby.

The tumultuous thread here is so bizarre. How about Pacific Rim JP? Talk about a release that deserves some panic.

You could say the same about German 'Room 1408' or 'Der Nebel' 1st print. Hardly Oscar winning material but the money those two titles commanded over the years was mental!!

Both had much better artwork. And in the case of 1408, unique casework that actually made it a significant release. But yes, I understand your point and agree with you :).
 
I have a big announcement for HDN members. Zavvi has heard the number of upset collectors here.

1) a number of "bulk orders" will be cancelled
2) we will announce on this thread when the listing goes live again.

Now go ahead and spread the word. Tell all your friends that missed out.

And finally...

Lets keep it positive folks. ;)

Thanks
 
Thanks apsmith, thats great, just wondering though, when you say you will announce on tgis thread, do you mean in advance or just when it goes live again?

Anyway, thanks for the news :thumbs:
 
Great news for those that missed out, but I'm wondering how Zavvi will know which bulk orders to cancel. Anything above 5 ?

There may be some orders from members on here who legitimately ordered more for other members.

Pretty sure this will be universal, so anyone that ordered for a group buy here might want to think of alternate plans.

Just another thought - what constitutes as a bulk order - Is this going to be a limit of 1 per person ?

Just to point out I've only ordered 1, so I'm just curious, not panicing :D

More like we held some back to create a panic and it will go live again soon ;)
 
Cannot believe I missed this! I've already asked in the Ninja thread, so I'm hoping some kind Ninja has a spare

Up to Zavvi.

My own view, anything above 5.

No idea on limit one, but I think it would be prudent to do in the short term.
