Question about the FS...

The "real googly eyes for decoration" is simply a bunch of googly eyes in the envelope right? not an amazing googly eye embossing?

Checking on this for you.  

Much appreciated. A fellow collector buddy of mine got his hands on his many months ago apparently.

I wouldn't be surprised if we have them buried in a mountain of LOTRs somewhere lol, nor would that not be a completely reasonable scenario given the site xD.

Any updates on this GB? I've confirmed sightings of this in Canada and hoping someone has positive news. 

Will the Canadians be recieving this from the US HUB again?

If what you were referring to is about the extra charge, then no there was no official announcement, nor is there a reason for one. It was explained very clearly on the invoice. 
 

 

I never asked for a reason for the charge. But since you bring it up in that manner, sure, an explanation isn't required.... but a respectful warning that something out of the norm would have been appreciated and is exactly what I was looking for. or is that just me? entered a GB willingly before BS's and payment is the norm.... BS came out.... i made payment when prompted... and therefore i thought that was it. funds aren't necessarily readily available to everyone that easily so when it comes to something unexpected like this in the future I would hope for a heads up. 

like i've stated countless amounts of times, being kept in the loop regarding the process of these expenditures is all i ask for. you can have whatever reason for whatever's going on, so as long as I know what's going to be required of me if it involves $$$.

I believe that sort of communication you are looking for is 7 posts above yours. 
 

all i see is a denial of a VET being made. forgive me, but i don't see communication regarding the extra charges. if you would be so kind as to quote it in a response to this that would help greatly.

as i expressed on another thread just recently. it's annoying that any important admin messages has no means of being highlighted amongst a all the comments. and following admins just leads to more unnecessary pings unless im interested in ALL the things they are as well.. 

i would HIGHLY suggest for each release thread to simply have a thread that is like the upcoming releases thread where it's closed to everyone and any important info be posted there. especially with membership renewals coming up.... im sure i dont have to remind anyone thats already a member how messy that thread was with a page being added every few minutes of people not knowing what's going on.

Hey Bud.  Yeah this one is a weird one because it was reopened and those of us that joined later were never invited to the club and given access to the payment link if I remember.  I reached out to @Masterblaster and he sent me a new invoice yesterday for the original amount and then I paid, and it was taken care of.  Hope that helps.  I do understand the frustration, it can be confusing.   The newer GB have all been much easier and flawless for me. 

I wish it did help. 

I got off the boat long ago. Checking my paypal account now, I paid for this in May 2022. And then apparently again for the upcharge just this past two weeks. 

We probably on the same boat in terms of not knowing what's going on lol. I assume there's others somewhere.

No I don't believe there was a VET for this GB, I also received an additional invoice, it said "Retailer raised the price due to higher production costs".

 

@Masterblaster may have some more info on this.

I just wish there was some sort of communication on this. It's already been a few days and nothing.

Was there a VET for this particular GB? And should this show up under my orders in the store? 

I'm finding it odd that i was invoiced extra charges and i dont see any word of it here. That's why I'm questioning a possible VET group that I have yet to be invited to.

I honestly don't care much for it anymore. Especially amongst the many other goodies a lot of us are probably waiting for.

LOTR has taken up 100% of my anxiety. This is a small portion of sprinkles upon the icing on a much bigger cake

Regarding 2001, it was posted in that club I&Q that direct shipments of single editions had gone out but HIB and OC had not yet.  
 

Regarding EOT, there have been numerous posts here about the delays with shipping this release and OC in particular.  

TY. All I care is a out being kept in the loop and not sit around twiddling my thumbs regardless of what the situation is.

The non OC slips in particular is what I was referring to (EoT) so ty for acknowledging that because the absence of it being mentioned is not the same as having no progress in terms of keeping us informed.

so...... just like what's happening with 2001 manta OCs.....

can i get an update on what i can expect moving forward? i dont believe i received tracking on either. much less a response or update on receiving a tracking..... on either.

Happy to announce that my edition arrived (Canada).

It's gorgeous!

Hope to post some pics this eve together with a couple of other new arrivals.

😍

mine came in this week as well. I wish I shared your positivity on it. 

I had an opinion immediately when picking up the parcel (weight) and that opinion got stronger and stronger as I dug more and more into it. but looking back at the beauty shots, it's exactly as shown. 

marketing be marketing and I'll hold this "luna" knowing I obtained it on my own.

So with LOTR out of the way i guess this thread's gonna liven up? lol

Can I get confirmation on whether I should be expecting this shipment directly? Sorry if this was addressed somewhere else already. 

I just realized that the tracking email shows shipment to hub while gb info shown direct only. 

TY in advance

@extantsrevengeAccording to their Instagram post:  Premium Box Limited Edition is 82,900 Won, Full Slip Limited Edition is 45,900 Won, Limited Edition Quarter Slip is 41,900 Won.  Other than the use of the English title on the steelbook's spine, everything else appears to be in Korean.  Based on this release including the Korean edition of the film and other Mamoru Hosoda releases by Plain Archive, the film will most likely not have English subtitles which is a shame if true.  The steelbook is gorgeously designed though and might be a good enough reason to pick up this release!

This is what I've gathered as well and was hoping someone could tell me otherwise. 

Someone plz tell me otherwise and show ur source!

all the tracking used to come thru @LeGonze but not sure he does it now, not sure who does now.

mine turned up yesterday but never received any tracking by pm for it, so god knows 

SHOULD I have received tracking though? ur response sounds like I should have but I won't make that assumption until it's said outright.

I need to this asap; mine might be lost in the system and I can't get any info given to me without the tracking info.

@ShadowWarrior should we have recieved tracking info for those of us who are receiving this direct?

Shipping invoice paid!

Where do i sign up for MP PRIME!?!?!?

@FrancLLL TY so much for the non LOTR post!

can i get clarification on which edition these are? showed up on the update post. looks like the first pic is something included in the second?

im currently signed up for edition c "ultimate collector's set" and hoping what i see below is what i have to look forward to. if im wrong plz correct me.

also...... is the ultimate edition costing more? forgive me if this has already been answered.
