They're gonna have to make it "Special" after such a lackluster season...

By the way, is that a Digibook inside the zombie-head? Kinda looks like it!

On topic, I don't believe this set is real. No studio has the balls to release anything like this in the US.

I'll pick it up just for the cool factor as long as it is <$50 but I highly doubt that, looking for this to be priced upwards of $74.99

Very lackluster season my overall rating so far: C+ or 3.5 stars.

Too much talking/drama, not a whole lot of development plot wise...they had 2-3 redeeming episodes but you can't air 7 episodes with only less than half being worthwhile.

it's gonna be $99.99 for sure or worse $149.99.

Well maybe not in stores, but it's created by McFarlane Toys and apparently going to be at their booth during the Toy Fair. Anything as big and probably expensive as this won't be sold in stores, just like Sideshow Collectibles aren't.

So far there hasn't been anything saying it's fake, so I wouldn't automatically assume that it is

It's for sure not fake...in-person photos have been posted everywhere on the net:

That's just one place with pictures of the real thing. The digibook is only a place holder. That's the special edition season 1 if you look close.

Will be a Day 1 grab for me if I can find one.

I know it isn't fake. Just tired of watching amazing sets that sometimes push the edge released worldwide but not in the US.

I rent most of the time but since this is a season, I'll buy it to watch it once and sell it to get my money back.

USiT · 03-23-2012, 10:08 PM

Its up for pre-order now @ $70

SapGoblin · 03-26-2012, 12:01 PM

that's actually a LOT cheaper than I was thinking!!! Pr-ordered mine!

Neku · 03-26-2012, 05:19 PM

Any idea if it's region free?

Chappps · 03-26-2012, 05:57 PM

I think I am going to wait and see if case that holds the movies is a digibook. For some reason I cant stand them and it would turn me off from buying this.

As incredibly elaborate (and actually kinda cool) as this looks - I have to agree. Really only picked up at the mid-season and season finales.

First season is locked so S2 probably will be also
