love heavy steelbooks, can't wait to hold this !!! Not a fan of light steelbooks, hate when I feel by just opening the steel I might dent it ie:entertainment STore exclusive of Star Trek into darkness man that steel is so light...

These are heavy because of the extras, slipcover and other bits. The Steelbook itself will be manufactured like all the others.

I still do not believe that all lenticulars sold out legitimately. I wouldn't be surprised one bit if at least 50-100 came back for sale after Tony goes through the orders and clears out duplicates or multiples on the same order.

Choi... any news from Tony on this?

Yes I agree of that but still they do it, it's part of the package (mostly Deltamac) ! At the exception of Waylen which are similar to a Korean version as they only do a simple J-card no extra to my recollection. But still love better the Taiwanese version with the only Proper Traditional Chinese on the slip covers or j-Card

However Kimchi have solid steelbooks usually and yes all the extras and the cover Art make it heavier I agree it's what I love about Korean version is a Kimchi release... but I still love Korean Steelbooks. Can't wait to receive this gem of steelbooks, but at the end of the day regular releases most of the time it depends how much we love the movie which will dictate if we buy our copy from our personal favourite country... but once thing though taiiwan Steelbook by Deltamac have better shrink Wrap than Korean Releases.

WOW this release seems Amazing can't wait !!!

I believe it's been ages since I knew someone who admitted to regular fawning.

I had to look that word up

Oh man, you guys are so missing out. Back in the old days of steelbook collecting we all used to have regular fawn-in sessions with our steelbooks. We only had audio back then and no video, but you could hear some of the other collectors really fawning hard ......

Man those were the days .... and why do you think we all used to keep them sealed .......

Cheers

Couldn't be bothered with the nightmare-ish experience during the first few minutes of order being opened so I thought I'll wait until a few hours later since I already own 2 of the French Steelbook and the Italian one is on order as well. Came in to check 6 hours later and found out that option A is still available so I bought that one.

 

[nekromantik]

This will be my second Kimichi steelbook.
First was T2 but I got that from a member on here

 

[lgans316]

I skipped this as I realised the movie has almost zero replay value. Will only buy the popular titles.

Happy with my full slip version for keeps, that'll do me! I got the lenti too, but I'm not that fussed by it so will trade it for something I really want that I missed previously - when another collector got there first and bought as many copies as possible! Viscious circle, but if you can't beat them, join them!

 

[yeslek]

Bit late but I got my copy of each lenti&full slip versions

It took me ten solid minutes to get from basket to checkout. I was soooo f'in tense because I stayed up until 6am to get this bloody thing. Had I not manged to place an order I would have lost my **** completely.

I'm not sure which sadomasochists actually ENJOY these kimchi pre-orders but seriously...you need to get ya heads checked. I'm not sure I can take another one of these my nerves are that shredded.

For the record I got 1 copy of the lenticular but seriously that was not an enjoyable experience in the slightest.

I found it a lot less painful than with Frozen
Bit of a bugger getting the items in the cart, but easy sailing from cart to final checkout
Must have had it all said and done in about 5mins at most

They did not finish the authoring the blu-ray master, so kimchidvd does not know if it's region fee or region A locked.

Most of previous release from CJ entertainment is region fee

I hope snowpiercer is also region free.

Cheers Choi
Hoping for region free also.

Yeah, I chose 'Merchandise' - $19.99 on packing and original invoice. At least I did with the Full slip. I forgot when I was trying to order the Lenti and marked it as a gift using the default value. In my defence, I had not long woken up and I was still half asleep!

K-Packet, Merchandise and value under $20 always works for me

Ron

Same as me £20 value and kpacket has yet to fail me.

I'm the opposite as I can see me keep both or just the lenti.

 

[lolwut]

Full slip artwork will be approved, just takes time to get approval from director,

As you can see, it's matte not glossy.

I do not know how it works, but sooner or later publisher announce detail disc specification.

like previous all CJ entertainment title, they always carry English title on their exclusive digipak serires,

Matte finish???

 

[kron]

Is it going to be embossed or debossed? (or both)

 

[8bitheart]

Matte finish???

I think considering the dark, gritty nature of the movie, a matte finish seems almost obvious!

 

[Escuby Du]

But, if you wake up someday and look around and think... "what the hell was I thinking," then you might have a problem and a pile of crap.

Dude. WTF? How did you get snapshots of all my steelbooks?

 

[ash333]

Heads-up folks - a bunch of posts were moved to the Kimchidvd retailer thread here.

Hopefully a really nice matte finish like T2 had and also emboss/deboss the hell out of it

 

[frankfish44]

My singular Lenticular version has been confirmed with amendment of payment status to payment completed

 

[earthscope]

Exactly! If it has the same quality finish as T2 (which knowing kimchi) I'm sure it will. I'll be very happy......

I don't think there's any need to worry with this release. Can't wait to get this and take some sexy pics......

Feels like Christmas with Rush Full Slip coming end of June, and Snowpiercer Full Slip end of July....

Just a question because someone said something that stuck in my head, that it is not the type of movie you rewatch over and over and made me think about my order.

Whith Kimchi, once order is place and you have more than 1 item ordered, can you cancel 1 item of your order or it's set in stone ?

You can cancel part of your order, just contact them and ask to cancel.
