A french member on a french forum told us he saw the ad for the Steelbook. This is an Auchan(Walmart like) exclusive.

how can this be more limited its the same steel between 3 countrys as far as i know there will be loads of these?

at least 10,000copies between them. forget this being limited.

It's a store exclusive

well yeah but it doesent make the steel rare or limited im afraid. i would agree if it was a store exclusive and it was only released in france then it would be limited as it stands its just fantasy that its limited fella.

makes sense to go for the dutch version which is cheaper.

Ok, fella

*store exclusive
*not sold online

geez its really tough to see why this will be limited because the dutch have so many of them.

Yeah, if the slip is any different than the rest of the releases, I would consider this rare if it indeed is limited in number.

This is more limited

Doesn't matter - it's like buying any of the Sony releases. Like Salt, Resident Evil: Afterlife, etc.

The steelbook is the same, all that is different is the paper backing. Hardcore collectors will care, if they are seeking the different editions.

My suggestion to ANY member that missed out on the French release - look at any of the other ones that are currently available to be ordered and save yourself some trouble.

EDIT - also, let's keep this discussion civil please. mod / staff members would rather not go back and delete posts. thanks.

[DK06CTR]

Yeah you're right but there are people (like me ) that keep the steelbooks sealed and just hate Kuifje/Tim und Strumpi as a title .
Also I'm going to buy an amaray of this for watching .

 

[Henke007]

I wan't a sealed with "Tintin secret of the unicorn" and all english. Hopefully Scandinavia comes through.

I might buy the Dutch one just to open and throw away the slip. Also have a set on order at az.de with the statue , unsure about that though.

 

[apsmith21]

I've deleted a couple of posts from members that are requesting this release.

Please use the trading forum for these requests.

There is a "searching for x steelbook thread" and you can optionally also create your own trading thread in that forum.

Thanks everyone.

bro you seem a little mad that you didn't get the french one and that people want it.

nah mate i could have gone on the GB for this but didnt bother, dutch version is cheaper and the same steel so ordered that. once you open and take sleeve off its the same as this version each to there own though, just doesent make sense to me why people are going on bout this version.

The reason I didn't want to launch a GB :

...and the picture looks a lot like this thread.

because it says Tin Tin on the CardBoard

you know that probably 80% of steelBook buyers dont open the steels up ??

I mean lets be fair , This aint gonna be an IM ot JR , so wats the point in being silly paying $80 , when it will be $25 in less than a month after release ??

Just like DRIVE (HMV) , every one went crackers playing it up , you can get them 10 a penny on Evil Bay now for under 20 Quid

my 10 cents worth
