Frazer pal...

You REALLY need to learn how to use attachments properly pal...

PS. I hope you will deliver the signed copy personally to me... unless you want me to visit you....:D

Yeah WTF goes wrong with those attachments - not sure how I manage to do that every time! Anyhow you know you are welcome here anytime and....I can confirm SNK are happy to sign a copy which you can raffle off so we'll get that sorted.

Apart from the slips Frazer, will there be any additional extras through the editions?

I expect more detail to be published on the extras next week. There are extra items with the Collectors and Mega Edition. The Mega edition will also be a limited number.

Love the slip cases...

Really the top tier book should have been the "Mega Shock Edition" or "Giga Edition"... think you missed a trick there!

It was originally the 100 Mega Shock Edition and then Max 330 Mega Edition and ultimately became Mega Edition.

How come the former was ditched then? "Mega Edition"... I dunno, sounds a bit naff to me... like "Mega Enterprise" naff.

My preference was 330 Max Mega Edition. Final decision on things like that rests with Sam as it's his book (plus sign off from SNK of course).

The limited editions slip cases are looking good!
Hope one of them comes with a very nice poster to frame up.

Yeah, I like that... but fair enough, I don't agree with the decision on that one, but that's editorial for you.

I look forward to finding out what comes with the Big Tymer edition to justify the extra cost; I'm hoping for a fat cigar and an eye-cancer inducing blue and gold shirt...

I forgot to ask - will there be a NGF colour corrected edition?

I third this.

Still can't wait though, and already pre-ordered at Amazon. I am hoping that by pre-ordering Amazon will have to honor that initial price listed, which would be great as I expect the final price will be greater.

From what I understand is the Amazon listing will never get stock. So they will either keep your order on hold indefinitely or cancel it outright.

No stock is shipping to Amazon. When Bitmap Books submitted for an ISBN they had to provide a summary of the book. Amazon (and others) then scrape this info and create listings. Bitmap Books have managed to take down the Amazon UK listings. I suspect anyone ordering through Amazon US/Jpn/Germany will get a notification (cancelling or putting the order on hold) at some point after we launch the book in two weeks time.
