Infernal Affairs Trilogy Steelbook (KimchiDVD Exclusive #5) (Korea) - Blu-ray Forum

redphoenix · 04-28-2015, 12:19 AM

So, I was surprised to see there wasn't a thread started already for this release. I ordered the lenti last week and my copy is supposed to get here tomorrow (hopefully). I'm really excited to see it in person.

I'm posting the purchase links too, but it seems it has sold out since the Raid preorder last week?

Is the full slip embossed? I don't think I've seen pictures of it besides the Kimchi promo ones. I would have preferred both but could only afford one at the moment.

DJJez · 04-28-2015, 12:31 AM

funny how its a kimchi exclusive but says at the top: publisher: novamedia

From the looks of some in-hand pics posted around, it does look like the skyline is embossed on the full slip, possibly the title as well but couldn't be sure.

You could still post pics.

We could use someone "uncouth" like me who opens their steelbooks, but who can actually take decent photos. My pictures always look terrible, it's hardly worth me bothering with my crappy camera.

Nova produced numerous kimchi steels long before they opened their own webstore. Probably should just keep doing that instead of trying to offer directly and failing so hard.

I actually have them stored right now. I was running out of space and just packed them away. This was before Zavvi unloaded with their torrent of steels. When I have some free time, I'm going to pull out my Asian steels and replace the Zavvi ones with them now that they take precedence

wjasoncul · 04-28-2015, 12:55 AM

It was very nice to my recollection and the full slip is very detailed like Shadow said.

I think Nova did Perfume too, that's another one I'd like to pick up someday if I can. Sold out, but both slips look really nice.

Both the full slip and lenti versions are available at Yesasia and have been for quite awhile. They are the so-called exclusive Kimchi editions complete with everything including the number.

These are two of the most gorgeous steels in my collection.

FINALLY! A thread for this gem!!
I preordered the Lenti when it was initially released and love it! Have often thought of getting the Full Slip too. Honestly they are both so nice looking.
I've mentioned before, why this release was so overlooked, on this site.

Good job Red!!

Thanks! I am really looking forward to getting this... if not tomorrow, then hopefully later this week. Even better, I am looking forward to watching again.

Oh man, what a treat!
Pound for pound, one of the best 1/2/3 trilogies around, IMO.
