Check out THIS Alien Quad Packaging!

Just saw this over at DigitalBits:



Interesting, eh? This is the Japanese packaging.

I'm not so sure about the Alien head, but I love the thin cases for the regular packaging. Very cool.

I had no idea that Japan has a bigger ALIEN fanbase than the U.S.

There's three different packages there. Which is which?

I HATE my American Quadrilogy package so much that I put the empty box up for sale at Amazon.

But, now I must risk my wife's wrath and convert my to dollars to yen in order to buy the giant Alien head set.

I'm not sure. The site that was linked to at this Bits was all in Japanese.

Here it is, if you want to try to convert it:

Wannabe,

Where's the listing for the empty box? I'm interested.

(Never mind - I found it)

-g

p.s. The Japanese super-set is amazing, and it looks like the standard set comes with a Kubrick figure. Nice!

whoa! That first picture is just WOW. If it's 100$ or less I'm getting it (however I guess this will go for 300+)

btw, R2 EU quadrilogy used the same thin packaging, however the R2 JP is nicer - more greener and the box looks more classier IMO

edit: the head (Alien production 25th anniversary commemoration anniversary collection - WOW what a title) costs 29800Y = ~280$
hmmm, where will I put it though

I would love to replace my cardboard R1 box with the plastic R2 case. Much nicer. Of course, the alien head made me say, "Great googlie mooglie!" Wow. I wanna get that.

I really love that neon green dvd box.

I absolutely love the Alien Quadrilogy set I have, but nothing pisses me off more than having 9 discs in a PANEL layout. I've had to super glue 2 panels on already.

You'll be amazed at the amounts of alien products in japan. I wouldn't say that they is a bigger fanbase, more so that companies like to release a lot more promo's and items such as this for the fans.
