Yowzah....still can't believe ToC produced this beauty. When's the octuple dip preorder going up?

TK_171 · 08-19-2022, 08:00 AM

Live now at HMV. Assuming other retailers will start going live also

Turns out that "petri dish" is actually a patch.

soulreaper313 · 08-19-2022, 11:54 PM

Thank you so much. Every time I kept checking I couldn’t find it.

RalphoR · 08-20-2022, 05:27 AM

Is it officially sold out at Zavvi US or has it not yet gone up for pre-order and showing sold out?

You're wayyyyyy behind dude. Already come and gone.

It went on sale at 4 a.m. Eastern time Friday which is 9 a.m. UK time.

I haven't been a fan of the 'Titans of C**t' artwork, but this is a looker. Pre-ordered.

I'm never on top of these things. I picked one up from Amazon UK so I lucked out

AlphaNoodle · 08-21-2022, 07:48 PM

Still available on Amazon UK!

rsaotome · 08-21-2022, 08:30 PM

US Listing: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BB7PYGF5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

$30 more, but no international shipping... *grumbles*

There is no USA release from Titans of Cult

Amazon USA is a Import listing and clearly mentions this in product details

This also why it has a high price

Third Party import pre order listings on Amazon USA often happen by mistake and list as a pre order with Amazon as the seller
This also happens sometimes on Amazon UK with pre order listings of Zavvi or HMV exclusives
After release date as when in stock you will see a Third Party seller listed instead

I wasn't confused at all. Just bemoaning the price difference.

(And domestic exchanges or returns are generally much less of a hassle.)

My interpretation was that the steelbook fits inside of the ice block case, but the picture here looks like the steelbook case is taller?

Outstanding service from HMV

Have you not purchased any previous Titans of Cult releases

All of Titans of Cult releases the limited edition sticker and also the age rating is on the shrink wrapping and is removable Stickers
