May I ask you a question? What do you think about the price?

I don't usually buy this editions but I know some people that are used to (matalabs) and they always get one or two steelbooks for the same price. 

 

Don't you think maybe there is something missing on it?

This is a very different kind of edition (acrylic case, 3 sided lenti, digipak, loads of goodies, etc.) and I don't think you can compare it to Manta Lab's BR (which also has a much higher print run). As for price, each member can make their own judgement. I joined the GB because I think this will be a beautiful release and I want it in my collection. - Ken

Any chance this GB reopens to fill the spots of those who have been banned from MP? I see several X’s on the list and I’d love to join for a lenticular slip only if there will be opportunity to do so. Thanks staff as always!

Same question as you, except I'm looking to join for the box + lenticular slip since I own the other Its

Just because you see an X doesn't necessarily mean there's a slot to fill. It's too early to say whether or not this can be re-opened but if it's possible we certainly will. - Ken

I'm assuming there will be a GB here as well?

Of course there will!

question for a friend has anyone got a pic of the other 2 boxes in hand they care to share??????

 

cough cough @Masterblaster @extantsrevenge @blu.steel33 @sobmaster anyone 

 

be nice to see before they turned up 

 

basil 👍

I only just got my Atlantean box. Bigger than I expected and feels as heavy as a bowling ball! 😂

Transit seems to be very slow on these, no doubt due to the size and weight. - Ken

Thanks!

Also, I assume that helping the community can be something like trying to get items in shops and forwarding them to collectors? Or is there a page listing what a member can do to help the community?

@marvel-companion Members are encouraged to share their thoughts in our various discussion threads by posting messages and photos. Participating is games and contests held on MP, submitting photos for awards, sharing news, posting release threads, and promoting MP on social media are all good. There are many other ways as well, but it all comes down to being active and contributing. Buying, selling, and trading between members on MP is strictly prohibited, but if you find something nice there are threads to show off pictures. - Ken

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to read through the rules and there is one thing I haven't found yet.
I saw Premium Memberships in the Group Buy rules. When I clicked on the link, the page was empty.

Is Premium Membership something that you pay or something that you earn (using the website or something).

Please help 🙂

I'm happy to participate in the site's economy and make sure to abide by the rules and get more chances to receive the items I'd like to buy.

Hi @marvel-companion there are only a limited number of premium memberships, so they are offered to members by the staff based on their participation and support of the community. The next membership period opens in January. Yes there is a fee. - Ken

Can it be assumed that this will not have a slip cover since it isn’t pictured?

 

It has been a while since I’ve gone after an amaray

Usually holiday releases like this always have an o-ring slip. It will be kind of surprising if these don't.

I can see that the listed price is 1329 CNY, but those that include everything in the picture?

Yes, it includes everything shown in the beauty shots. That is the retail price not including shipping & GB fees.

Hello all. thanks for the welcome. I joined to get in on the Blade Runner 2049 GB. I know there is a deposit I have to make before I can do that, so if anyone knows how I could get that done with, please let me know

Hi @The-Mad-God our rules have changed. We no longer collect deposits from new members, however certain GBs will have a payment called a VET (Virtual Entrance Ticket). If this applies to any GBs you join, then you will be contacted with further instructions. - Ken

I forgot the old way of doing things lol. It takes a few days to confirm I'd imagine?

This is being done "the old way". It will be transferred to the club after we close

Just watched an unboxing.  Curious if it's nice in hand for those who have it.  Not sure it's for me, this packaging.

I have this one and Wanted too. They are both great in hand (IMHO). Wanted has the imbedded bullet and Dune is sleek and classy!

Of course others may have different opinions

Are there any other examples of large acrylic cases that have already been released?  I'd like to find an unboxing of a similar type of release and see it live, before I join the GB.

Koch (Plaion) did one for Dune and I think it's awesome! 😍

I'm gonna sleep on it, but after a long and hard look at the BS I have a couple minor issues with it:
 

- Acrylic cases are by and large massive (thick, not the good kind), perfectly fine for some things, but a custom OC protector would be better no? Not a fan to be honest.
- The MOC Spinner set.... it's the same with the puzzle set from Terminator and Mantas newfound obsession with resin models - separate it out or drop entirely. Sorry, but it's junk that belongs with mass produced collectors editions, not premiums 🙃

Anyway, I'm leaning towards yes, but a definite no on a Blade Runner edition feels wrong  

Don't you dare! I need that spinner 😁

Is that The Art and Soul of BR2049 book? Or another one?

Can't be. The one in the beauty shot is 56 pages and smaller format. Probably an excerpt. I have the art & soul book and it's massive and much larger.

Some pictures of the test print!

 

Remember how the premium editions of the 5th generations releases were sold out and hard to find? 

Don't miss out on this release!!!

Those live shots are amazing. Love the texture on the box and slips! Count me in 😍

Maybe. I've ordered the HMV Exclusive with this art.

I think I will get this one from fnac, the alternative artwork looks slightly better!

Does it? Please share. All I see is placeholder art at FNAC.
