Get all three as they are beautiful man :scat: (even better if you can get the remainder 2 white bg titles: Matrix & Blade Runner) ;)

Get the 5 whites. They look great together. ;):naughty:

5 is too rich for my blood and Matrix is a no no for me.

I was going to do 4 and Blade Runner was on my list but it was getting too expensive so I dropped down to 2. But now I am trying to comprimise and readd se7en and go for 3.

Thats why I am torn between getting 2 now and 2 later, or just going for 3 and being done with it. Blade runner is nice but overall doesn't do a whole lot for me. From the pictures the steelbook looks too washed out.

I don't need to catch them all. Just the nice ones :hilarious:
 
I'm sticking to my guns on this and going for just the batmans, gotta keep spending in perspective.

Maybe in a month or two if these are still available I'll break down and get se7en and Blade Runner. It seems these take a while to go oos because of the ordering limits.
 
THEY'RE HERE!

BTW I ordered all of them.

My orders are on my porch. I am heading home to receive them and unpack for re-shipping plus pictures.

EDIT: I can't get out of work completely today but most of my orders are here for those who I am helping out. Here is a teaser :)

Same here, on it's way. I skipped work and I'm just waiting for DHL. I ordered all but shawshank as I have the CA one and it seems like it's exactly the same. These will be my first jp steels :oohyeah:
 
Gave my visa to my mom and told her DHL will be coming today and you may have to pay a fee for the package

she just phoned me saying, the package arrived and no fee was required :D

I dunno if that's good, or if they will hit me later on

But for now, I can't wait to get home to my 5 SB's!!

Really hope they'll release The Last Samurai like Inception, Dark Knight, in a pure white, banners free steelbook, would be awesome
 
A follow up to my earlier post for a couple of observations:
- the "white" steelbooks are still the most popular in this wave;
- the quality of these JP steelbooks is still the best globally. I won't say how many were shipped to me (those in the picture below are only a small sample) but there is not a single steelbook with any kind of "defect" less one with a small tear in the shrink wrap. Consider this - I did not pick any one of them myself. So kudos to Amazon.JP! Well done!

Argghhhhhh, my Seven is damaged. Massive dent! The box looked like it had been hacked to pieces but the rest seem to have withstood the damage. How the hell do I get in touch with Amazon.co.jp about this.....I could cry!

Hi all,
Appreciate some help here. I received my steelbooks this morning but the box was very badly damaged and one of the steelbooks has a huge dent in the very front. I want to know how to get this sent back and a replacement sent over but I have no Japanese skills and the google translate is sending me round in circles.
Please help.
Cheers
Jon

Sorry to hear that man, got a small ding on my Gran Torino, emailed them for a replacement and a new one is shipped out today, excellent service, will just need to return damaged steelbook and if I get hit by customs upon receiving the replacement package I only need to send them a proof of payment and they will reimburse me :scat:

- Click here (English help page) and here (enquiry form in English - need to log in 1st), good luck ;)
 
Thanks mate. I feared the worst as the box was a mess when I picked it up. All DHL tape everywhere and had clearly been opened and bashed about. Gutted as I was so looking forward to these but glad the process is (fingers crossed) straight forward.

How did you manage to get all those??? EEK!

Thought it was single disc limit for each customer so presume you have a contact there.

Is the urge to throw them all on the bed and roll around among them quite strong??? I think it would be for me! :hilarious:
 
My 3 just arrived (Seven & Sherlock Holmes + Knight & Day (not a wave title)), no customs fees charged, just had to sign for them

No damage either thankfully

The answer to your question is put forth best by FanOfGaming in this post.
