Happily had an email a couple of hours ago and pulled the trigger // still available

Hurry up, @AlienKing @Dan

Got it! Thanks
Although i wanted the 1/4 slip i'll have to settle for this. 1/4 slip will be more expensive in the secondary market for sure.

Absolutely love this release! The steelbook is fantastic with its delicate embossing and the beautiful copper effect on the drawings. What even more exciting is the booklet. It features 41 poster artworks on high quality paper. Even though I do like the slip as it is, I can't help but wonder what would have been possible if CJ Entertainment/Plain Archive had used one of these posters, because they're amazing.

You can look forward to receive your respective copies @jailbird_joey @AlienKing

Hurry up, @AlienKing @Dan

@Real Steel thanks for the tag! Like @AlienKing i decided to went ahead and order the full slip version even though I am really after the 1/4 edition .

Is it just me or Paypal conversion rate suck balls? When you do a regular search in Google, 1 CAD = 0.76 USD, but in paypal it's only 0.73..

Yes, PayPal's conversion rate is always worse.

Welcome and glad you got it.

PayPal is an absolute ripoff. If you have a debit or credit card, link it to PayPal and pay in USD using your card in future. Then withdraw from PayPal in CAD and use the funds to pay your card account. The card exchange rate is more reasonable.

Great pics!

I bought type B also for the art book but had not opened it as I was afraid to be disappointed. But now that I saw your pics, I will be going ahead to enjoy it.

 

[misformatt]

Missed it again.

Steelbook looks great. Will have to track one down eventually.

I received my Slip A set yesterday and I'm absolutely enthralled with the whole package.
I kinda wish I had grabbed a Slip B as well since that Artbook looks absolutely gorgeous but I'm certainly happy with what I have!
Knowing some folk missed out, I'll count my good fortune as a win.

ridiculously nice edition



new SCF2 fits like a glove btw

 

[Real Steel]

Love the art book (though wish the pages could be spread out flat). It's like having 41 cover artworks. The first pages already contain my favourite:

 

[virkia]

Looks perfect . . . except for the Korean title on the front which almost looks like it's been added later superimposed as it is on the elegant artwork.

 

[SteelCollz]

Looks perfect . . . especially because of the Korean title on the front

Corrected that for you.

 

[virkia]

Corrected that for you.

Personally not a fan of bilingual titles . . . but . . .

I've never really been aware of the entire limited-edition film market and always stuck to regular BRs, but once I saw this edition I knew I had to get it.
I'm really happy with the slip A edition. Although, I would've loved to get the artbook as well.
Getting my hands on it definitely scratched some sort of collector's itch and now I find myself checking out these forums every day for the next release I want to have.
Hopefully this will be the start of a nice collection! I already have my eye on Plain Archive's Paterson release, which I hope to get next.
