The booklet is inside the case. No way of knowing if it has one inside but its heavier than a normal steelbook. I'm assuming all the HK versions have the booklet but don't quote me on that.

I think its only the Korean versions that have some which don't have the booklet. I have one with and without but this is clearly visible as the booklet is wedged in between the slip.

Can anyone confirm that the booklet on this one is INSIDE the case rather than shrinkwrapped underneath the paper backing, as with the Korean and Taiwan editions?

And if so, is there any way to tell whether it's one of those editions that came with the booklet or without one? Do we know if they even started shipping any copies without the booklet?

Great, thanks for the answer!

Th edition still available mate?

I would also like to know this.

I searched for the thread as it's the only one missing from my Prometheus collection, but couldn't find it.

I think it was sold out during pre-order.

This is back in stock at Yesasia

Why do you think this is back in stock? Does anyone know how many copies were in thisrun?

 

[domalorite]

This is pretty much OOS now. There might be one or two shops that have a copy left but you'll have to go looking.

If its really back in stock at YA they probably found some in the back of a lorry, or most likely they're just reselling returns.

lorry? Is that a truck? Little late for returns dont ya think?

 

[VRob98]

It won't let you order it anyway. When you get to checkout it just removes it from your cart, so I think this is probably just a mistake and they have no stock.

Lorry=truck. Terminology might not be the same for different parts of the world.

From wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truck

A truck (North American and Australian English) or lorry (British and Commonwealth English) is a motor vehicle designed to transport cargo.

Quite an interesting article actually...

How rare is this steelbook?

 

[VRob98]

Wow, so they did have a few copies. It really must have been a few only because I was all over it as soon as I saw the post and it just emptied my cart every time I tried to check out with it. You did well to get one, congrats

How rare is this steelbook?

It's pretty rare (try finding one on ebay ) Easily the rarest of the big 3 Asian releases that came with a photo booklet. Though many find the Taiwan and Korean editions more desirable due to the 1/4 slip covers, even though they're much easier to find. This one is fairly plain, with just a couple of stickers.

The JBHiFi edition will probably gain in value too, as it was the only VMB version released and sold out fairly quickly.

Strangely this is available to order again on HMV's site. Guess they must have found some stock from somewhere.

 

[VRob98]

Very surprising.

Could these be part of a second batch, without the booklets?. If they're part of the first batch then they're quite a find.

 

[SteelbookedUp]

It says Usually dispatched within 10 Days when you try to order it, so if it's anything like HMV virtuallly no chance of getting one.

Probably a few came back into stock but were snapped up straight away.

 

[VRob98]

They're still taking orders though...
