Already V12? And nice FAQ, just thought we should give credit where credit is due, you know to appreciate those who contribute.  wink.gif

EDIT: Strange, seems like nobody here interested in the Star Wars blu-ray.

Will wait for the review. Lucas claimed the original film is gone so they only have the 2k scan left ie theatrical versiion is no longer possible and 2ndly the resolution will max at blu ray.

And the DVD THX version is already pretty good. I refuse to get it if no theatrical version. Vote with my pocket mad.gif

Is this Region locked as well?

No need worried of Japan release as Japan is Region A, same as us.

As i said, Amazon or who ever can push off, there no need of explanation from you on the pricing..im not interested at all..all cut throat pricing.
I just wanted to share the cool looking stuff. But i definitely feel that RM200 above is not the price tag for it , unless its utterly limited stock.

Btw..I found it from eBay ; from a Top Rated Seller.

That's not Amazon pricing, that's the actual retail pricing of a Japanese BD, which range from 5k to more than 10k yen depending on what you are getting (this pricing is from the JP concert and anime I bought, not sure about movies pricing).

Amazon JP have the lowest pricing for BD that I have seen so I am really interested where you manage to find cheaper price, since I buy BD from Japan once in a while.

My friend bought this 6 BD set, the retail price is 52,500 yen, he got it from Amazon JP, iinm less than 40k yen. The quality of the packaging material is awesome.

Ya, a lot of KKK (in RM) in price of Japan BD, lucky I not fancy in Anime. I only love Studio Ghibli, each around RM 200+ that is already killing me softly!

Same here, I bought some of the BD from Studio Ghibli, but not anime boxset since they usually don't come with subtitle except for a few series. Good thing Studio Ghibli BD always have subtitles biggrin.gif The other JP BD I buy are concerts, usually cost RM300++ for the limited edition first press, but for a 2 BD 6 hours concerts its worth it for me

John update:

Today i just got a big box from AMZ US via I-PARCEL, actually this time it arrived 1 week earlier, i guess.

5 movi, 3 special collector gift set,

HELLBOY 2 paper box is so teruk can be thrown away, fortunately every thing is fine inside.

WANTED is in very good condition, i spend 1 or 2 minutes just to figure out how to take out the disc. luckily i haven't sold my standard copy, cause i prefer the standard keepcase for the disc.

I AM LEGEND is in a big landscape pack, very reasonable $, around RM70 only, with lots of supplimentary art card, book, etc. i also managed to sell my old standard legend to cover half of this gift set.

GOEMON slipcover kena bang & some damage at the corner, but still ok, i already ok to accept the minor or mid damage from AMZ.

too bad my wife took my camera to KL, so can't share pic with u guys.

Finished watching HK movi EXILED last night, this is the 1st time i sit through this movi, just love it, especially the 7.1 surround sound.
