Oh yes of course we are lucky with that, it was more the bargain price the set came to when you consider how much stuff was in it! Not sure how it could be done so cheaply.

As an American importer, I'm VERY glad I pre-ordered the LE right now.

Very nice art for the regular edition... but am I crazy, or does it say "A film by KJ"? Wouldn't that be "KF" - Kinji Fukusaku?

I'm happy to have ordered the LE and I'm sure I'll be thrilled, but a little something in me feels cheated for not having the option of the 4 panel artwork feature.

yeah but it's only paper. +the images will be online to look at. the box set is a definite fair trade in my opinion.

I bet those in region A land who managed to get a copy of the Limited Edition must be over the moon now if they had thought about waiting for the Special Edition.
