Not a bad slip. But I think the TW slip probably won this round.

 

[Ush]

I like the Korean slip better :O. I can't wait to get mine!!

 

[VRob98]

That's a bit of a let down. The Taiwan version beats it by a mile - much classier!

 

[chanfm]

It is hard to beat the TW slip this time, Rob. TW did a really good job. It is time for Hilal to say - I knew it! LOL!

 

[AlexG]

I'm sure it would look better in person but overall it's not that great. They need to hire some new designers cause the slips just ain't happening as of late.

It's true. These plain black slips (Taken 2 was the same) are what I'd expect of a UK release. In fact the UK Skyfall slip is better!

I know that Korean slips have often tended towards being plain when compared to Taiwanese versions - and Skyfall is far from the worst they've done - but it's still disappointing to see something so bland when they can come up with a Snow White and the Huntsman or Alien Anthology.

I just hope they raise the bar again with Life of Pi and the Hobbit.

04.03.2013 is the judgement day, wait for it

I think mine has shipped.. I've got an email but it doesn't actually say?

Also.. My online banking states that JSDVD took the cash.. Are Kimchi owned by JSDVD??

 

[VRob98]

Yeah, mine has shipped from KimchiDVD, got the trk number showing in account details.

Too bad, I would have tried to cancel it otherwise. Very disappointed with this one. But then that's always the risk with Korean pre-orders.

Hoping now that Japan comes through with something special.

I'm kinda digging this one. Need to see both this and the Taiwan edition in person to really figure it out though.

It simply can't get any classier than the Taiwan slip for 007, the coolest one out of the bunch and even before JP's one is out (the French one is even better than this, I'm just saying ), I am getting this & JP ones but I knew right from day 1 it will be damn hard to beat that beauty slip TW spoiled us with

I knew it hehe I told ya so didn't I!!

 

[jitstark]

I gotta say I actually like the slip. Sure Taiwan is classier and wins overall but I like the gold '007' on the black. This will look much better when it's in hand.

 

[lgans316]

Slip looks terrible.

 

[cityguyste]

For once I won't be disappointed missing out on a Korean slip. TW the one to get

 

[earthscope]

I like the slip but have to agree that they need to get some new designers for their slips. TW defiantly wins but it will be nice to see them next to each other. Have to wait and see what JP gives us now!!

At least I will have the Trinity of the 007's when JP comes out.

I just hope that this is not the start of a trend from Korea with Life of Pi & The Hobbit coming out. If they have the same style of slip, then the already sold out The Hobbit 3D that has had all the hype will be a big let down and will not be so valuable as has been predicted.

MR DJ Play that WAV File on your Traktor S4 mate you were right!!

+1 I like this slip and its a nice to contrast with the TW Steel - Bring on the JP edition...

I love the slip but i think Korea will never do better slips than Taiwan...

Except the slips on Ted and Bourne Legacy but this battle was an easy win for Korea!
