Packaging was perfect. Double bubble wrapped, no chance of any damage unless a streamroller would run over it.


Few notes first:

  • It was VERY hard to open. It felt as if the glue was pulling apart from the box itself.
  • My lithograph was damaged right out of the packaging. This happened by whoever handled the litho placing it in the portfolio.


Love the packaging and design. The portfolio even came bowtied. Unfortunately my litho is ruined and even if it is replaced, the portfolio will ruin the next one. In the last picture you'll see the flap on the lower left is not flush whereas the other corners are. Because of the placement (it's glued on), it warped the lithograph since it would not be laid flat.

Here are pics of my copy:


















The gold gilded page edges are way cool:





Inside cover (back cover is identical, I believe):



Sample pages:















Compared to other art books:

It's a little thicker and taller than the Mass Effect Clamshell:





It's bigger than the Titan EX ACIII artbook:





It's not quite as thick as the Gears 3 Folio:





It's way bigger than the Uncharted 2 Folio:



A little group shot:




I'm definitely impressed with this book. I can't recommend it enough. It's jam packed with content and the presentation of the overall package is superb.
It would have been better if the binding and clamshell were made of real leather as opposed to the faux leather; and an Augment Reality (AR) feature would have put this book over the top. But for the price and overall good quality, you can't really knock this book!
