Also, @bossjon, was there a MP protector offered for purchase to fit this odd-shaped one-click?

 

 

 

I am not sure.  I checked out my original GB request and pulled the invoice from Paypal.  Neither states a protector.  But i did receive it with one.

I definitely didn’t get a protector… darnit.

What’s this sticker that’s missing? I opened mine and didn’t see any sticker on the shrink wrap or inside the box???

If your box is minus the red velvety  sticker , it’s because its a replacement, some boxes .. mine inc… were replaced due to a fault and the sticker was un retrievable, however those affected boxes hopefully will have a replacement sticker sent .. but be patient…

Considering myself lucky to get an early copy, but unlucky to get a messed up DL. BN still my favorite premium retailer even if there’re some QC issues. Beautiful set all around!

Today I found the email address of the director of Plaion and I wrote a passionate plea to ship to the USA.  He said no

This is not a media book, but a box, looks like an OC

Thanks—nonetheless, there are many more nice mediabook releases in Germany than we ever seem to get in the USA….

Thanks @Catgirl!  

 

Echoing what @Manticore4 noted: It's really the smaller, less expensive, but really cool mediabooks that are harder to come by here than the larger collector's boxes like Le Pacte, which seem to eventually show up on Amazon US or other places at reasonable prices.  

 

MP has been helpful with a GB for some of the larger Plaion exclusive titles.  But the media books don't seem to make it out of Deutschland.   Although I've heard rumors that @hal56 gets some delivered across the border by drone from his mates in der Deutscher Zimmer.

 

 

-- Here's the response I got back from Plaion today . . .

 

Hello Mark,

 

Thank you for your patience!

We checked the possibilities to deliver to your requested country. At the moment the logistical costs and customs are very expensive. Therefore we cannot arrange any economical shipments to your country.

Thank you for your understanding!

 

Best regards

Andrea

I've received most of my German 4k Media Books, and a fair amount of 4K's, through Amazon Germany.

This week's pickups. Went a little crazy at Diabolik DVD. This puts me at 1034 4K's.

@BreakBeatDJ Diabolik DVD is another good place for German releases, and all foreign releases for that matter. The Sadness is a German release.

Thanks @ncraft  Yes, Jesse has sent me many things.  I just got the Second Sight Picnic at Hanging Rock box set and a couple other things last week, really beautiful stuff.   

 

I haven't been posting my receptions as much as I used to.  I will start up again soon.

I don't use the word "grail" lightly; I hear that word thrown around quite a bit in the steel community. But I picked up two sets I would truly call grails yesterday! They were costly, but they were sealed, and I've been looking for them since shortly after I started collecting. So without further ado, I give you the Blufans Mummy trilogy Book of the Living and Book of the Dead trilogy sets, with a Blade Zavvi thrown in!

Thanks for looking!

[Paul Armond]

I have the book of the living but I would love a book of the dead. Where did you get the protectors if you don't mind me asking.

[Chief_lookout]

@Paul Armond They came with protectors on.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't those sets from Everything Blu, not Blufans? I remember when Everything Blu started selling those sets because it was right after I bought Shaun of the Dead from them. Great sets nonetheless!

There are three sets “on the ‘bay” from EverythingBlu…
