Spoiler

- The steelbook illustration is by Krzysztof Domaradzki.
- The artwork for the slipbox was used previously for the Oldboy vinyl LP. It was co-ordinated by Nicolas Winding Refn, the director of Drive, and illustrated by Laurent Durieux. The director of Oldboy Park Chan-wook wanted one of our editions to feature this artwork so we reached out to Milan Records and illustrator Laurent Durieux. You'll be able to see more of the artwork since parts of the top and bottom were cropped out for the vinyl LP.

So........PLAIN's most popular and most anticipated title yet.....

ZDT had print print run of 5K combined.

PA will up the Oldboy print run for sure, any speculations on what it will be?

I'm guessing 6 or 7K?

ZDT had 5k 'steelbooks'. I'm guessing Old boy will also have 5k. If they feel a bit daring, they'll up it to 6k

 

[watkinson]

Actually, ZDT had 5.7K including Keepcase edition. They're almost sold out. I think Oldboy is much more bigger release than ZDT in Korea. Many Korean BD fans are requesting the largest print-run for Oldboy in Korean Blu-ray history.

 

[sminister]

And also remember what they said regarding their new plan about upping the print run for all future titles. Print run will be big I think.

im guessing they will up the print run a bit. They are investing a lot in this release

 

[AnubisNefer]

7k

Everyone is gonna want this, and if there are some leftovers... They will have a backcatalog to build.

Since this is a triple a Korean title, my guess.

7k

announced almost a year ago. we have travelled almost 584 million miles around the sun in that time.

what exactly are they doing?

my guess is this release is in development hell

 

[djjez83]

i reckon 7k. 5k is not enough for a film with this popuarity.

plus they are going to increase the price as well so expect each version to be around $40 minimum.

Maybe a bit, but not that much cause they wouldn't want to have more left over as stock.

And they definitely don't want to piss their customers off. ;-)

But if it was me, I'd even lay down 50 dollars per version.

It's an iconic movie for me and I love every minute of it.

Dare I say 10k print run? Not just for steelbook of course but any other version they come up with, including amarays.
And if 10k, you can expect quintuple this time instead of quadruple.
