Got my 1click today. Looks great, decided to open it to bask in the glory that is Nova slips and I found this:

Yep that's air bubbles under the top layer of the lenti.
I've contacted the GB host to see what they can do.

You're not serious are you?

As others said, it looks like two layers of plastic packing are still there...the overall wrap and thr additional protection for the lenti

Have you opened it yet?

I'll check when I get a chance but never had a lenti with a protective film still on it before.

Dunno if he's one of those picky collectors like myself but non-Nova orders won't have the holofoil Nova sticker on the back, will they?

I received my FSA order from pung and it has no silver Nova sticker on the back but the numbering sticker is there. Nothing too major but it may be a thing to some. I noticed a lot of his used items say in the description no exclusive release sticker from whatever the edition is Nova, weet, plain archive, kimchi but this particular release is new and it didn't have that statement in the description. Oh well.

Got my GB order from the other site yesterday. I know many don’t like the O-Rings but much prefer these then to any other type of slip.

All nova and weet orders do, as do some kimchi. It's evidently a korean thing. JW4 definitely does.

I've not had them on all (over 100 lentis easy) but enough for it to feel normal.
Think it depends on the retailer but I don't keep track.
If you were planning on opening any copy for the disc, best to open the lenti and be safe, but it's very likely just plastic wrapping or an extra film over the lenti.
I'd be surprised for a bodge up that bad to slip through if its not

I don't mind o-ring slips but MUCH prefer full lenti slips since they were started maybe 8ish years back.

But this release HAD to be o-ring, to match the prior
Lovely pics! Can't wait to see all mine next to each other

I've been collecting movies for a good decade or so and this is my first one click box ever and my first purchase via hidef ninja Group Buy. I've never seen a package this meticulously protected! I'd like to thank @Aniv For helping me out, arrived from South Korea to Croatia pretty quickly! Definitely not my last one click box after this experience. Let me just heal my wallet a bit.

Did NovaMedia stop using those foam cases for shipping?
That much bubble wrap is OK too, but those were better, I think.
Or am I confusing them with MantaLab and others...

I have bubble wrap to wrap the world I swear.

NovaMedia is yet to use the foam block cases afaik. They seem to always have an unlimited supply of bubble wrap lol, which as you say is fine too, but I think had the choice the foam cartons are ideal and overall better protection. Not just OC either, even my latest Manta purchases of 1 or 2 single editions have used them now.

mine left korea 2 days ago and not arrived yet in UK haha

 

[tha_lunatic]

i got my copies few days ago, thx @Aniv

 

[hatredhorror]

me too.. thanks @Aniv

really liking the one-click box, lenti + steel.. the two full slips could be better however..

 

[yeslek]

mine left korea 2 days ago and not arrived yet in UK haha

Mine tracked as leaving 22/09 but nothing on tracking since. Assume it will update on delivery

it should br tracked by RM once it enters the UK normally

 

[yeslek]

Not always. Depending on type of tracking used here, RM can track each point through the system or track when leaving and received only (the latter being cheaper from experience...then there are special delivery tracking options...).
I've had steelbooks from GB's in both, but usually the latter.
If its not updated / delivered come say day 14 from shipped, then maybe worry(again, talking from personal experience here...most GB's land 7-14 days for me in UK from US/HK/Korea/CZ etc )

Thank you @Aniv . We are very happy with these.

I noticed there are two versions one of the booklet. One that comes with the 1/4 slip and the lenti, which is smaller to fit within the steelbook. Another, which is larger, and thus fits separately within the full slips. Contents, both text and pictures, seem to be exactly the same though.

Exactly like it has been the case for every Nova release so far.
