I think I'm going to pick this up as well as the UK collectors edition but I noticed on that page that it says the disc is region free but obviously the japanese version. I'd just like to make sure that this is just the japanese version without an option to play it in English. If it plays in English then I'd cancel my current order but as of right now, I don't mind buying both.

Also, would anyone be able to shed some light on importing from Japan with regardings to import fees? I know that when you get something sent from America there's all sorts of charges on top that really push the price up.

Thanks in advance!

edit: One final question, does anyone have any more information regarding the quality of the miniatures? If they are die-cast metal then fantastic but if they are plastic then their worth seems somewhat lessened. I've only found some brief comments regarding them being metal but no official word and if there is, then it's in japanese. The unboxing video from above doesn't really put my mind at ease. They look quite plasticy.
I think if you were to pick it up, depending if nippon yassan is willing to declare it as a gift of low value in order for you to skip the import fee or the customs might open it and charge it anyway. It's a hit and miss. Import fee varies from different companies in UK and I believe other UK members will be able to tell you some of their experience.

The miniatures are die-cast weapons which I believe it is made of metal. Source: http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/01...ature-weapons/
