In the guides defense, he is using the slipcover on the xiii-3 guide.

It's actually black with the logo, so it only looks half as bad lol

Yeah, even the box and packaging was amazing for the art book - everything was so superbly done. I just haven't been able to remove the plastic seal on it yet cuz it looks so darn good.

And no, Connor hasn't really tried chewing on it...yet. Luckily he's still a bit young to be hanging around all my CEs and stuff downstairs (too cold).

I completely forgot that I didn't take any pics of the Castlevania CE yet either,... I'll add those later tonight!

Because I forgot to add it last time, here's a few pictures of a recent pick-up. Since Mags said England didn't even get the colorful picture on the outside of this horrible outer box, I'll add a shot so you can see it!

I wasn't overly impressed with this CE, mainly due to the lack of a decent outer box and the poor quality of the figures (and why advertise Dracula as a 4th and not include him!?). I wasn't too impressed with the artbook either - it seemed to me like a "nice hardcover comic book". I also felt that there should have been SOMETHING else, like a soundtrack or lithograph or something in there, but since I was able to get a good deal with some Amazon.fr credit and all I guess I can't complain too much.

Well, here it is...

Castlevania: Lord of Shadows 2 "Tomb Edition" (PAL)

Wow, I actually went and watched an unboxing for this because I thought "that must just be the shipping box" but no, it is not. Good thing they put the name of the game on the outside otherwise you wouldn't even know what it was...

Well, yeah, the more I think about it I guess the Tomb being the box itself isn't all that bad - I'm just used to a "wrapper" or something with the name of the game on the outside. If I put on my "let's be creative" hat, I suppose I can appreciate the CE on that note. Even though I didn't have a huge glowing review on it, I'd still rate it at a 6.5/10 due to it being different, plus it had a steelbook which is more than I can say for Titanfall

Thanks everyone for all the love! I'm still expecting a few more things in the next week or so, so I'll take some pictures when those get here too. One is possibly slightly rare-r than anything I've got (limited to only 500 worldwide) so that's pretty cool (though nothing TOO crazy), but I'll post 'em when I get em.

What?! Really? I haven't taken the slip-cover off yet -- I was kind of upset that they changed the format as I loved the look of the first 2 and that they kept with the same format with those two. That makes me a little happier to know if the 3rd one at least kept the simple logo look, but they should've kept it white!
