I think the rarest Steelbook Slipcover is the Terminator V2.0

I think the rarest Steelbook Slipcover is the Terminator V2.0

That could be true, depending on how many they printed in that go-round.

Thing is, places like Taiwan are able to split orders with Thailand hence the same steelbook... so they could have ordered 2k each to hit 4k min. So then that is only 2k slips of Gladiator ... if even that ... So it would be interesting to see which one had less.

 

[Renius]

T2 only had 2000pcs as I remember, but well it could also that TH got 3000pcs and TW only 1000 pcs of Gladiator. So better lets say, the most expensive will be T2. v2

 

[Wreck]

Yeah definitely, has a lot of hype behind it.

Spoiler

Which country is that release from?? That looks really nice.

 

[Wreck]

Germany, http://www.amazon.de/dp/B0042RUQQK/?tag=hidefnin0d-21 its extremely expensive right now ... its been A LOT cheaper before. Though Apsmith may still have some from a leftover group buy at a much more reasonable rate especially for "in the USA"

 

[hidef al]

I have the FYE exclusive SteelBook for Inception. I really like how the German version has a different cover art. I'll pm Apsmith and hopefully he has an extra copy that I can buy.

Thanks Wreck
