This is perhaps the reason all of a sudden the gift set is available everywhere.

From what I understand, the limited quantity of 30,000 made refers to the gift set itself, not the "yellow/black DVD case cover". I hope I am right though.

Wooo HOOOO!!!!!!!! I didn't think the box set could be cooler, but what a bad-ass looking case. And I pre-ordered this sucker at HMV back in February. I don't think I've ever looked foward to a DVD this much.

Just to clarify again ... this isn't an HMV exclusive or anything, is it? I preordered at Amazon a while ago ...

Is that yellow cover an actual cloth like material with a zipper? It looks like it, that would be so damn cool. I am glad I preordered it a long time ago.

I was wondering this too. I preordered my box set at Amazon last month, and I don't remember seeing anything about that case cover. It would be cool to have in addition to all the other goodies, though.

The Zipper DVD Case would be Icing on the Cake!!! I just pre-ordered mine from Amazon, but I'm hoping it comes with it!

Check the page before and there's a link to it! I actually ordered mine yesterday, but it looks like Amazon is still accepting pre-orders.

I am really beginning to wonder wether they might have raised the production from 30,000 copies to a higher number. It seems very odd that there seem to float a lot of extra copies in the market (at amazon.co.jp). It is not like they found "a few additional copies" because it is already selling for another 24 hours and it's still available...

I just placed an order at amazon.co.jp. Just wondering what some of your estimated shipping dates are? Mine says delivery estimate: 05/17 - 05/26. Kinda far away. Hope it gets here sooner

I made a post saying how excited I was b/c I DID order this from HMV & I pre-ordered way before the cut-off date. However, I could not find any info about this on the HMV website & the image of the variant cover is from a different website. So does anyone actually have any confirmation on this? I emailed HMV, but I don't know how good they are at getting back to emails.

That's the original delivery date I got back when I pre ordered it last February; it's when you opt for the standard delivery rate. I changed it to express mail and it now says 4/20-4/24. Someone else posted that they chose regular mail for another order and it came in a week. So, it may not matter which one you choose. I just didn't want my order bouncing around on a ship.

Forget what they say about it being sent on a ship. As I stated in this thread, economy shipping takes 7 takes to reach me. My Ronin UE was released on the 16th of the month, it shipped the 17th...arrived on the 24th.

The package itself was from Amazon in California. Most likely, sent from Amazon Japan to here and then repackaged but still including the Amazon Japan invoice.

Not once have I heard about anyone having an issues with Amazon Japan. I plan to use them again on 2 more pre-orders (Superits) in the next month or two.

Hey Bill----now I remember. That was your post. Man, I just didn't feel like flippin' through the pages lookin' for it. That's interesting that it gets repackaged in here. Where exactly is their facility in California? I'm in the SF Bay Area; that would be cool if it was here. I'd get it even faster.
