There are lots of problem in getting this work out, guys.
You guys should be appreciates if this ever gets release at all.

I do not mind to wait another few months to get this as this would be the last line that Blufans exclusive would be using steelbook.

It's almost impossible to get this release but the persistent work of Blufans mod get this done and finally gets the green light but this would be the last.

so steelbook is harder to release than metalbox or is the delay, because of the titel Rio?

You know the blufans mod have great pressure from scanavo for this release, having being able to print on small run and exclusive. Who else in this world have done that and how many of them gets this kind of treatment?
With a small print run and exclusive, many are looking at this and just imagine the china representative pressure from the rest of the world.

I just cannot stand with the GB we are having, we should have count ourself very lucky to be able to get this release. be more gentle on your comments.
Making it possible from a mission impossible is a tough work you know.

Well said Alex. And thank you for your hard work, both physically and diplomatically in helping our community with this hobby.

Forum members, please be reminded that our group buy hosts are securing these items at cost and often have to deal directly with the supplier/retailer who is already suspicious/weary of the large quantity ordered. Not only patience but gratitude must be extended here especially in situations where information is not and cannot be easily passed along. Thank you for your consideration and understanding in helping make our community here not only world class but also fun!

No problem ash, I'm just glad that blufans mod is very supportive of our orders as well.
Our orders at HDN definitely had make an impact on their released, many members there miss out the release but we are getting our copy secured.

Why are we being allowed to order multiples of these when their own members can't even secure a copy?!

That's a good question but were member actually allowed to reserve more than one copy?

If so then it is kind of odd because it could help a lot more members on this forum get a copy if it was limited to one copy per member

 

[bgmat58]

I am unsure of Real Steel but Rio and FMC originally were limited to one per member and it was changed to 3 per member. Feel bad for the blufans guys that weren't able to secure a copy. I believe everyone here who wanted one while the GB's were open was able to get a copy though.

Their members there also asked the same question, they even blame the mod for being bias which favors overseas order instead of local orders.

If I'm releasing the steelie, I would want to see them sells out as fast as possible. Isn't it ? Or you want to be selective on your sales ?

This release has been announce at their forums and is listed publicly on China most prominent online sales site, with this kind of information and you still miss them out, who to blame ?

There will be opportunist everywhere, if you have the extra dough, by all means take as many copy as you can. I do hope they sells out as fast as possible. :movie:

So, stay tune to HDN always. You would not know how much you have miss even if you are away for a week like me.

Why are we being allowed to order multiples of these when their own members can't even secure a copy?!

 

[BURRAGUM]

I may be wrong here..BUT..
There are 2 things thats grinding my gears here.
ONE...A lack of respect for the efforts put into LTBF...FMC...and now RIO.
Ive never tried to organise putting something like this together..But common sence statts there is going to be problems, whether it be a cover, release dates, or whatever.
What im trying to say Guys, is we should be really greatfull that blufans are putting these together for not only themselves but also us. These are exclusives with only very limited numbers, lets not criticize these efforts,but applaud them and encourrage more of them.
TWO...I don't know the blufans situation or membership..BUT if we don't get our criticism down to a minumum, they may turn around and say there members can have as many as they want of the 1000 and what ever is left over are the scrapes.And those that are complaining now about who gets what or how did this guy get more or whatever, will really have something to ***** about.
JUST BE GREATFULL FOR WHATS BEING OFFERED.
(sorry if this reply upsets anyone,but im really greatfull for these and all the efforts that go into getting them.)....

 

[Naughtius Maximus]

Watched the film the other day - superb colours in it! The steelbook will hopefully really stand out once I have it in hand

 

[bluraysteel]

Finally, there is a something to show us.

The final product will be ready in about a month.

 

[zesty]

Finally!!!!!!

Looks great berns should be very happy with 'his' design

 

[vonnie]

looks nice but the front and back don't really 'go' together.
maybe its just me.

anyhows bring it on!

im going to cherish every blufan release i have!

 

[Henke007]

Nice and colorfull, mixed bag with the back and front. But it is nice and it will prob grow on me. Bring it on

 

[RajLondon]

Looks really nice! Kevin can you confirm if the lettering is embossed?

 

[Shanester]

What about the inside?

 

[nekelstal]

Awesome!!!
Title Looks embossed to me

 

[Malky78]

Yay

I agree on the front / back don't gell 100%, but it's still a very good looking steel. Embossing would be the icing on the cake.

 

[Torrance]

It will be only limited or numbered ?

 

[nkaoru]

how can we buy it?
