Preorder Timetable (I created this myself via timeanddate.com based on the time above, so please double-check and/or wait for official confirmation from Plain before taking this as an absolute!):

Update on Timetable: I saw that PLAIN had used the below image in an answer to someone that wondered what the release time would be in the UK. I asked them if that meant it was correct and they said yes

Misc. Information:

Information on the change of Design A:

When we revealed <Rust and Bone>’s original slip cover design with a “photo-wall” concept, it was clearly unpopular.

The “photo-wall” image that we used for [Design A] appears briefly in the movie. It’s a wall of photographs from Stéphanie(Marion Cotillard)’s past and we thought it would be a good idea to show them properly in high-resolution.

But at the same time, we knew how it didn’t directly represent the feature film itself.


After a week of brainstorming with our design partner at Propaganda, we’ve decided to give [Design A] a new look.

The “photo-wall” image will be used for the booklet instead.

<Rust and Bone> will be released in two designs as shown below.

Thank you.

Best regards
PLAIN ARCHIVE

(See the end of this OP for how Design A was meant to look)

Hand-sealed envelopes:

Our upcoming release 'Rust and Bone' includes a set of high-quality pictures of Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts –– carefully packaged inside a white envelope.

We’re individually sealing the envelope with beeswax, heating it in the spoon using candles.

Every seal will look different from one another. This is one of our latest efforts to humanize our products and we hope you like it.

Higher Print-run:

Info from FB (Link to FB post)

Our non-Steelbook releases <Blue is the Warmest Colour> and <The Master> both sold out within 24 hours. Many customers have asked to increase the number of copies from our usual 1000.

After careful consideration, we’ve decided to increase the number of copies of <Rust and Bone> by 50%.

**Please note that we don’t have any plans to release <Rust and Bone> as a Steelbook.

PA008 <Rust and Bone> will be released in two versions. The difference is the Slipbox and the Booklet design.

More details are coming next week. Thank you.

Best regards
PLAIN ARCHIVE

This will not be a SteelBook edition (answer to a question on FB), "But it'll be a beautiful package as like 'Blue is the warmest colour'(PA004) "
