Will be curious to see if the artwork is any different from the Canadian wave.
£25 for Blade Runner?! Didnt notice that

Doesnt say £25, just looked.

Really? Sure was when I looked. I guess they noticed and fixed it. Even so, ripoff.

They can dump that UV junk. That'll bring the price down.

Is there some kind of big chunky extras these came with in the Japanese versions they'd cost this much?

I think it's a bit disgstingly high tbh that they're charging even £17.99 for catalogue releases this old that can be had very cheap on amaray new from retailers like Play. I'm gonna give these a wide berth at the moment and stick to the cheaper exclusive alternatives and wait for a price drop

Probably not because very few people will buy it at this price and once they lower their prices, even less people are interested or aware of the price decreases. So they'll eventually sell less and have more costs because of unsold stock.

Yeah but since it's so high in terms of cost and available to everybody, i think most are reserved about ordering it and moreso because of all the other large amount of cheap catalogue releases.

Not a chance. Really wanted the 'Blade Runner', 'Inception' and 'Se7en', but a those prices they can sit on warehouse shelves gathering dust for me.
