Way better than the U.K. slips that's for sure!!!

Hey Rob, did you like the slips? I'm disappointed

After the Alien Antho (also from Fox) they're pretty much what was I expecting mate. Not amazing no, but unless these titles come out in Korea or Taiwan these are probably the best slips they'll get.

not rly imho.. bad color choice

I don't like the way the U.K. slips are so huge with very little writing on them. I don't see the point. They cover up too much of the art for just putting a damn ratings logo on it.

Couldn't agree more!!! The color is wrong for this one.

Its amazing how such small things can make for such a awesome looking total package.

Looks cool.. I can't wait to see the print quality on these!

They should be the same as the Europe ones I would imagine.

 

[Chandler_90]

Normally the print seems like its of a much higher quality in Asia.. I will take your point tho as this may have been mass produced!

Looks alright but really nothing special, slipwise they are better than the UK ones but is it real worth it this time, hmm not really (not unless U really want these steelbooks), glad I skipped them altogether both the UK & JP ones. One day TW/KR will have Star Wars in steelbooks with some great looking slips until then I'm more than happy with my BD boxset

I'm waiting for individual releases still...
