By the way not sure if it has been asked before.

How big are the packages? I mean what protector sleeve size do we need to protect them? SCF2? SCF4?

Thank you

 

[BookofSteel]

love that full slip
good job manta

[...] Manta Lab exclusive stickers on the protective sleeve instead of the shrink wrap;

that sucks big time!

 

[Maximus15]

that sucks big time!

I'm sure someone said the stickers are loose inside the shrink wrap??!?!? and they nearly chucked them away as they didn't notice.

I know, but it seems that few are on the protective bags

Initial verdict? I absolutely love it. They've done an amazing job for their first release.

The pros...Lenticulars are on par with NM. They haven't achieved the same depth as them but it is as CLEAR as day! I'm impressed. The embossing on the lenti and full slip is fantastic. Love the artworks they used. Also, it's good to see they've supplied a protective sleeve for each edition in case you decide to open them.
Now for the cons....too much holofoil on the full slip; loose lenticular ML cards; Manta Lab exclusive stickers on the protective sleeve instead of the shrink wrap;

Anyways, now I don't know which one to open...lenti or full slip?

@Ibfear Check spoiler for more pics.
I'll be opening and taking more pics later, but I'm pretty sure by then there will be loads of in-hand pics

That was @Noodles but there seems to be a sticker and a lenticular card, I didn't realise the lenticular card is a card and not a sticker. That's cool I think

Mine didn't arrive today so hopefully Monday or one day next week

Maybe @Noodles can clarify?

Yea mine just left Hong Kong today so hopefully next week

 

[tha_lunatic]

my 1 click is in Germany. without customs problems I should get it next week.

 

[paulboland]

manta is not new. they are basically novamedia based out of hong kong.

Manta Website is new it did not exist until just recently and Man of Steel is their first release
Most HDN members only found out about Manta through seeing it mentioned on HDN or Facebook

Lots of steelbook customers don't know Manta Website exist yet

Not every steelbook collector is a member of HDN or Facebook or other web forums

You be surprised how many steelbook collectors are not aware of this release or other retailers releases from abroad
I have introduced lot of new steelbook collectors in past year and some did not even know about Zavvi until I told them about the website

Apologies for the confusion... it was the small lenticular Manta card that was loose inside the box. The Manta sticker was stuck to the protective sleeve, as @snooloui already said.

My Full Slip arrived this morning and the sticker is indeed just stuck on the protective bag. Overall the 'package' is really nice, but just putting the shrink wrapped box with a loose J - Card in a plastic poly bag was the only let down. I am sure that this will irritate some of the more OCD collectors, I can just about live with it..

I never even realised they have put the sticker on the protective sleeve.
That's fine I'll just cut around it so its loose inside the steel. That's what I do anyway with all stickers that are stuck to shrinkwrap, I cut around them and for instance with nova and kimchi I place them inside the packet inside the Steelbook that houses art cards etc.
Or I'll keep it where it is because I usually take them out the protective sleeves to check them out properly when I fancy looking at them anyway

Just see that mine arrived in he uk yesterday

Does the Manta lenticular sticker remove easily from the protective sleeve and easily be re stuck

The manta lenti sticker isn't stuck to anything, it has its backing on it, so you can whatever you like with it

My one click arrived this morning, shipped on Tuesday. Very fast. Very pleased so far with the overall quality, though I've not opened any yet because I've not decided which one I'm keeping. I hate holofoil, so bored with it, but this fullslip doesn't look washed out and bad for it, as others have.

Only minor letdown is that the manta sticker on one of them has become dogeared because the bubblewrap caught it and bent it over. If it bothers me massively, I'll give manta a shout to see if they can put another in with my next order, of which there definitely will be.

What I want to know is the manta sticker that is on the protective sleeve easily removable and be able to re stick anywhere you choose
HDzeta stickers for example some of the recent releases are not easily removable and tear or crumble when you try to remove them

Gotcha. I've not tried to completely remove it, but I did peel it back more than it was already peeled and what I noticed was that it definitely felt like one you'd be able to easily peel off and reapply and that the part of the sticker that is dogeared was still sticky, so they feel good quality. Not quite foil sticker, but definitely not the paper rubbish some places use.

It's a sticker you can peel the back off of it.
