Yea, mine was dirty as hell. Makes you wonder why they've been sitting on it for so long? It looks like at least a month or two's dust...

B) Steelbook?


Answer: B
Great! The news everyone on SBHunterz has been waiting for! I think most people assumed it was going to be a StickerBook.

Any chance of a photo as evidence? I would do so, but mine is staying sealed...

we need to try and clarify things ASAP - if you guys can give us bar codes (or at least one of you and the other confirm it's the same) - also if there's any other info like - you were one of the initial 4K or not, once we get confirmation we can all be happy rather than playing this guessing game

Barcode wise I have no clue but I'll most likely be ordering another set to compare. MGS4 was just chucked into the delivery box and is not inside the set. As I'm on my way to work I won't be able to get pics until late this evening or tomorrow... that is unless someone beats me to it.

G-P, I think you mentioned you got 2 copies... by any chance did your 'good' copy get any minor creases or damage? I don't know if I should keep my current copy or re-buy. The creases to mine aren't too bad but its just annoying.

OK, so now we have a clue to the contents...pants, I was rather hopeful of exact same wording...we could be still stuck with just 4K 'real' steelies

edit - where did that post just go? It was a pic of the back of the box and it was missing the word "variant"

I delete my post because I looked back in the thread and saw a previous pic that also had the same wording...

Edit: Here's dlc's post and pics http://collectorsedition.org/forums/...&postcount=727 It also has the same wording. I could've sworn someone posted a box pic stating "Variant steelbook"...?

OK, but here's what we know:

1) X360 seems to be 100% sticker
2) X360 'real' has never been seen
3) PS3 first 4K seem to be real (barcode 4012927054062)
4) PS3 stickerbook has never been seen
