As others have asked..
Any news on final artwork and more importantly region code?
Seems like Kimchi are trying to do a Blufans with delays and lack of info.

DISAGREED!!! Trippin!!!!!!!!

I ordered Type A, and Im hella excited to get it. I know there's Tons of releases that come out all the time, so Type A isn't in a lot of people's budget. BUT These arent cheap cookies we buy, this hobby cost lots of $.

However, I perfer quality over quantiy. I want a pimp-ass box set. Everyone always bitches about more extras, and finally Kimchi does a boxset and people are doing the cry baby thing. I bet if it was cheaper everyone would be preaching about how wonderful it is. Secondly, nice things cost $ and some people are willing to pay, like mua, and I hope KIMCHI does boxset for ALL OF THEIR RELEASES!!!!

If you don't like, you don't buy. Get it?

what ? quote:.. get it ? /// TSSSSSSSS

This boxset is available almost everywhere including the book with it as a non exclusive.
The only difference, kimchi is calling it an exclusive because of the number card and of the character cards included same ones as in Type B and Type C.

I have 2 set of character cards with my Type B and Type C.

But so many copies are out there exactly as Type A(without the character cards only difference). it has the book everything the same but no character cards ?!

So do as you wish, if you are excited that's fine, but Please do not judge others for your own collecting belief system. These discussion should be on a general basis discussion not almost feeling attacked because I made a comment on this. I will do as I please with my money and do the same with yours.

and with the quantity of steel I buy, especially with the numerous Frozen Kimchi I purchased, I should be the last to be telling that if the boxset would be cheaper I would not be bitching. so you know ?!

But you didn't say "I think it's excessive" you said " they should have dome only slip cover and lenticular" implying that its mere existence somehow affected you enough that other people shouldn't have it either

But you didn't say "I think it's excessive" you said " they should have dome only slip cover and lenticular" implying that its mere existence somehow affected you enough that other people shouldn't have it either

this is not what I mean, maybe I didn't write it correctly. I simply meant for me with Type A being exclusive and non exclusive(In so many store including Kimchi).

I guess I'd have to read again but it's a needless conversation which I don't want to continue.

Type A overkill = Typa A exclusive Kimchi + Same release as Type A (but without numbering card and Character cards) that we can find in so many shops. This is what I meant.

Reason why I wrote Type B and Type C might have been enough... But the funny part is that I bought the Type A EXCLUSIVE KIMCHI one anyways. Is it still overkill that extra one ? YES as it's everywhere... I should have written things in a different manner maybe but it was late after a very stressful day and I didn't reread myself.

In any case I hope I didn't write anything to lead to confusion. But the mention of the price plus the shipping comment I had read is non relevant, it's not that expensive.

So it's what I meant. if someone feels some frustration towards what I said now well go ahead I will not be visiting this thread again.

Kind Regards

PS: don't mean to disrespect anyone but some people on here they write like they are on a mighty horse and it's only their opinion that matters. I just went with the Facts.

 

[DodgyDave]

The biggest problem that "arsebook" ever caused was people doing their dirty washing online. It seems that people want to be personal all the time. Is there no private conversation anymore?
Anyway,
What happened to news on the artwork for the full slip and the region code. If this is region A locked then I reckon there'll be a job lot of cancelations.

 

[Sigill]

Can we keep it friendly please folks. Everyone has a right to their own opinion. If you don't agree with it then please just move on. Back and forth arguments go nowhere and just derail the thread. Thanks for your co-operation.

 

[Real Steel]

Type A is more a box set which is an extra option for those who like it but should not be in same 666 quantity as the lenticular which is much more popular. I feel that kimchi deliberately limit all three options to same 666 quantities to get completists to buy all 3 options, instead of allocating according to what the market needs. In this sense, type A is an overkill.

absolutely right!
Cant wait to hold my Lenticular & Fullslip in hands! I hope kimchi will do a great job on these!!

btw.
if someone wants to hate...go in the Thor TDW JP Thread and blame Amazon for their AWESOME Steelbook package fail

I definitely agree and furthermore, this Type a Boxset is Available in more quantities than 666 but as a non exclusive, all that is different is no numbering card and Character Card. But those are details. If it would be ONLY EXCLUSIVE KIMCHI at 666 I'd say ok that's a lot but that's how they did it. What I find Overkill is that Type A is available as a NON-Exclusive on so many website including Kimchi so it's 666 TYPE A Exclusive + All the other website that carry this Type A Non Exclusive... so they might be sold out of Type A exclusive 666 but available everywhere as a non exclusive same exact product(without number card and Character cards)...

By the way, this is the case for many Kimchi Exclusives, e.g. T2, Leon, etc. And don't forget the exclusive Kimchidvd sticker.

Best wishes,

y is shipping $40 to US?????????????????????????/ :O

 

[nkb32]

y is shipping $40 to US?????????????????????????/ :O

Express shipping overseas and the weight of the product = $$$$$$$$$$

 

[Real Steel]

Also, Kimchi's shipping charge is not just postage cost. There's a handling charge too built into each item's weight. The actual weight including the box is less. The handling charge is for the packing in bubble wrap and box. It's good packing but it doesn't come free.

I love kimchi exclusives because of: the Number card, art cards, and especially the exclusive sticker, among other things. Plus, a Boxset with a 666 "exclusive" copies. Even with all those other boxsets out there, they don't have anything on a kimchi. This is going to be THE MUST HAVE edition. Really looking for to watching this film. Its gunna be tough to decide which edition to open. A, B, or C? Decisions, decisions....

If i were you buddy, i would open A

 

[Actarus]

If i were you buddy, i would open A

Totally agree, A would be the one to open to keep the more in deman and most rare Type B and C

 

[RekLess]

Did we get a final confirmation on the full slip artwork?

 

[8bitheart]

I also wondered if we're any closer to getting confirmation of whether this is definitely region-free? I know we're expecting it to be, but the discs hadn't been authored so nothing was confirmed.... I just need to know whether I will have 1 copy to trade (maybe, if I decide to) or 2! haha

 

[DJHilalo]

Requested cancellation of my Type A preorder, don't want to get hit by customs after what happened to my Amelie Tripak exclusive, besides I'm not a huge fan of BIG boxsets... it did take me days/weeks contemplating whether to cancel or not.

What happened to your boxset? I also got the Amelie Tripak and mine went through customs perfectly fine. Now I have type A in pre-order
