I'm not liking the intensely light/bright spines on the lenti and full slip A (it's especially ugly on the latter). But I love everything about full slip B, and that lenti front cover is going to look amazing if it's up to Nova's usual lenti standards. Plus, the lenti spine magnets for the steelbooks were a great idea (even though I don't care for their design).
LOL :LOL: "Intensely light/bright spines" - "especially ugly".... C'mon man, really?! :wacky: It's a frickin' lightsaber for crying out loud :hilarious: It's going to look "bright" :p Would you rather a plain black spine with text and that's it? :bag::confused:

IMO, Nova have done a sterling job and credit where it's due and that jazz.... It's still only a mock-up we've witnessed ;) Wait until we've see in-hand pics and then decide if you like it or not would be my humble advice :D:thumbs:

I'm aware it's a lightsaber, thank you very much. Did I say I would prefer a dim lightsaber on the spine? I would MUCH prefer that it was a black spine with the title on it. Then it wouldn't stick out like a sore thumb on my shelf.

You did read the parts where I complimented the various editions, right? No reason to mock me because I don't like the spine, my opinion's at least as valid as yours.
 
Awesome overall package absolutely....but they left an opening. They forgot to take advantage of Rey. She was after all the star of the movie. Some other retailer that takes advantage of her character will have the force with them and will go a few notches above this massive release by Novamedia.

Of course your opinion is valid but the critical part I highlighted seemed especially pernickety... That's what I found amusing :giggle: Sorry! :shy::angel: I did read the remainder of your post but it's with comments such as yours I sometimes feel folks like to criticise merely for the sake of it.... Maybe yours was constructive feedback ;)

But honestly, isn't it a good thing to stand out on your shelf opposed to blending in with the rest? I enjoy a bit of variety and colour when my steels are lined up.... :D

Sorry, I'm having a really bad day at work, so I'm kind of thin-skinned at the moment. I guess it does sound a little picky, but I definitely intended for the comment to be constructive. Regardless of my gripe, I'm overjoyed that I got in the GB for the one-click and I can't wait to get this :thumbs:.
 
I thought the print run would be:
600 full slip A + 400 full slip A from the one click and so on...
That would make it a print run of 3,2k.
Why are there 400 one clicks anyway?
Now there are only 200 FS A and B left to order.
I usually buy one-clicks to get a low number, 400/600 would be pretty disappointing.

We all have "those" days and it's perfectly understandable ;) Apologies if I came across condescending as that wasn't my intention either :angel: (Had a wingy 2 year old and nagging Mrs at the time of writing which probably didn't help matters :censored::hilarious: )

Just remember, it's all good in the HDN hood :cool::LOL::thumbs:

I just noticed that myself
Print Run can't be only 2,000 going by usual way one clicks work
One click is 400 that = 400 Full Slip A 400 Full Slip B + 400 Lenti = 1,200

Individual Editions on their own add up to 2,000
Full Slip A 600
Full Slip B 600
Lenti 800

2,000 added with 1,200 =3,200

Print run has to be 3,200 not 2,000

I have to admit I'm trying to resist the force, this is not the steelbook I was looking for, :LOL: that Lenti will be good knowing NM, not sure about the other versions. I have never seen a magnet used for the spine before, I guess that solves the no title on steelbook situation, :thumbs: no doubt it will be a right pain to get anything on the day, if I decide to go for it.

Can't say I'm in awe of any of the mock-ups, it even looks like BB-8 has gone rogue on the back of slip A. I'm hopeful they will be amazing in-hand though.

Full slip A 600 (of which 400 in 1-click)
Full slip B 600 (of which 400 in 1-click)
Lenticular 800 (of which 400 in 1-click)
Total run 2,000

So this just leaves 200, 200 & 400 individual copies left respectively.
Not a chance to get this. I got more of a chance of showing Rey the "Dark Side" than acquiring a copy of this.

They've posted a message on Facebook about print runs and changed it to 200 for the full slips and 400 for Lenticular and 1 click

Don't forget the copies already reserved for the GBs.
So it means maybe 100, 100 & 200 copies of each left on pre-order day, for local AND international customers.

Well done Novamedia! Why even bothering to sale this item in your shop at all?
 
NovaMedia Facebook updated
Novamedia have posted Sorry for all the confusion. Please check the revised quantity

Price & Print run (Total print run = 2K)
- Full slip A : 200 copies, numbered : $49.00
- Full slip B : 200 copies, numbered : $49.00
- Lenticular slip : 400 copies, numbered : $49.00
- One click package : 400 copies, $147.00 (As same numbered Full slip A + Full slip B + Lenticular slip)
- Order Limit : One Click X 1, Full Slip X 2, Lenticular X 2
- Order Gift : Pet Slip & Lenticular Magnet Spine Cover


Nova have lost the plot
Order Limit : One Click X 1, Full Slip X 2, Lenticular X 2

With the amount of stock already allocated to Group Buys that above total is lot less and you also have both local and international nova websites sharing that print run

Thousands of customers attempting to use their website on pre order day not a chance of the website coping

In my opinion the one click on this occasion should be done away with to cope with the demand this release will have or increase the print run to 4,000

Nova might have well not bothered having this on the nova website on 27th May as it will be near to impossible to place an order
