I’m taking a stab here and think by ‘side dishes’ he means extras. Possibly.

Inserts I mean like character cards or poster cards

[Flloydo]

I believe those are 11 character cards that are printed on both sides.

Correct

Sorry to sound like a broken record on this, but I still don’t appreciate the sentiment of the ‘look at me! I’ve secured my copy, I’m so happy, this is working out even better for me now!’ type messages is all. Not a fan of people gloating in general.

Here’s hoping everyone gets a hold of the copy they want.

You've made your point very clear on more than one occasion and you don't need to repeat yourself, as you say, like a broken record at each time someone posts something you don't like. Now the beauty shots have been revealed there's going to be a lot of people saying how happy they are etc etc.....I would politely ask that you refrain from posting how hard done by you feel you are and try to post positively in the thread going forward. Not everyone wishes to see the negativity.

Noted. Although on the flipside, not everyone wishes to see people gloating.

Anyhoo, I’ll keep it quiet now.

To keep on topic....Any idea when we can expect a date for the group buy?

All people are doing are feeling happy with the decision made that was offered to them out of the three options available.
You're taking it personally and there's nothing wrong with people posting messages at how happy they are from seeing the beauty shots, it's only the same as you continuing to post messages about unhappy you are about it all. Nobody is saying "haha Andy didn't get one and I did".
I honestly think you need to relax and stop worrying and if you're that passionate about all of this then you'll be passionate enough to be first in line on the dot when the group buy goes live. I think the odds of somebody like yourself missing out are slim.

As far as the reveal goes, I think the set looks stunning and I'm very happy with the box having the 'A' logo on it. That sort of wraps everything up nicely. I've said it before but those boxes that hold the slips are sexy! They are just quality.
As for the slips themselves, I like them all but the tiniest gripe I have is the two slips with the bright 'A logo' sort of looks a bit random when the third one doesn't have that similar art. They should do all (preferred) or nothing I feel, but I can live with that.

Nope, see my previous reply to you. That's the best update I have at the moment

Sorry to bash your post! (EDIT- that sounded far too double entrendre for this early in the day)

Speaking on the release- I’ll be happy with the double lenticular. Small gripe is there isn’t a Thanos and/or Thanos & Black Order shot- still a bit miffed that they haven’t kept the steelbook design to match the first two Aveneers films in that regard.

Irrespective, think we all know that these are going to look beautiful in hand- BluFans rarely disappoints.

The single front is great but the back not so much.

The gauntlet with a debossed finish would have been 1000x better imo

Personally, would of preferred Thanos on the back, to match the previous two designs with Loki and Ultron.

It’s not so much the image itself, just seems that the whole steelbook looks a bit too busy for its own good.

 

[BluSteel2012]

So the single lenticular is NOT transitional this time (like recent Blufans releases, Thor Ragnarok, Black Panther, Doc Strange...etc...)?

Or do we not know yet?

I guess that's correct, otherwise it would have been shown on beauty shot.

 

[BluSteel2012]

The full slip missed a trick by having the same artwork as the rear of the steelbook.

Personally I feel the steelbook should have had Thanos on the back. Then the full slip would have been the perfect 'Thanos' edition (especially as his pic is already on the spine of that one)

 

[Robsonmonkey]

Weird how the back art of the full slip and single lenti is just one of the 5 coloured infinity stone posters they did

Just don’t see why you’d use them when it only shows a few characters, that’s why the Double Lenti is for me.

 

[matthewtheunicorn]

I think my favourite lenticular artwork out of the three is the front of the single but 2 is better than 1

Yea this was the point I made too. It just seems a bit random to pick two of them as the back art, and even if all three had them the set is still missing the others due to only 3 slips.
The better options would be all or nothing (completely different art altogether), rather than picking just two and the third not having one.

 

[Dazzler17]

Really like the single lenti, but I think it’s would look better swapping the rear artwork with the full slip. Keep that purple consistent.

 

[Dhiraj1]

I am glad i got all copies but i am not bowled by everything, there is a distinct feeling of being samey all across. The one click looks great and so is the double lenti, but all the rest have samey artworks on the back sides.

The 22 images of characters are in the single lenti.

Your username is so similar to mine, people will start thinking I have two accounts (just putting it out there that i don't!)

I think they used the 3 main Avengers characters that have their own trilogies. Iron Man is on the back of the 1/4 slip.
Captain America is on the back of the Single Lenti and Thor is on the back of the Full Slip.

Makes sense to me.
