    They are the same pressing quality as the Deluxe repress Versions Blackened pressed. They are good but not the best. I still keep my originals and 45rpm pressings but just got them for the extras/live versions. Still looking for Masters. Only one I'm missing. The Black album should be pressed in the same manner soon I'd suspect.

    Thanks for the info! Yeah the fact that Master is about 400-500 dollars on ebay right now keeps me from buying any of them haha, maybe it's for the better in terms of my wallet :'D

    Man I'm fucking tempted... but concerning the limited aspect of this (closing the entering on march 31st) they have fooled their fans a lot in the past...the dm coffin box that was supposed to be such a collectors item was manifatured cheaply and is now available for 40 bucks on ebay, and so on... but i'm still really tempted.

    I was thinking about getting the deluxe boxes in the past weeks... does anyone have these an can report on the pressing quality?

    I used to collect in box Black Series 6" myself :) It's a really great hobby, but i had to give it up because i needed the cash for other things. And to be quite honest, I started the collection  hoping that they would eventually bring out every major character in the 2015+ red line. When the split up the 6 bounty hunters on the numbered line, the store exclusive unnumbered ones and the archive collection it bugged me a little bit, my little ocd i guess :D

     

    I still buy the occasional figure though and have kept a few. The last one i bought was the sith trooper sdcc exclusive, fits to the other exclusive slip case editions very nicely and it's a great character design.

     

    This used to be my collection, they were all mint and in box :)

    For me it's probably:

    1. The Mandalorian
    2. The Last Jedi
    3. The Rise of Skywalker
    4. Rogue One
    5. The Force Awakens
    6. Solo
    7. The Empire Strikes Back
    8. The Return of the Jedi
    9. Revenge of the Sith
    10. A New Hope
    11. The Phantom Menace
    12. Attack of the Clones

    I think right now for me it would be

    1. A New Hope

    2. The Empire Strikes Back

    3. The Rise Of Skywalker

    4. The Last Jedi

    5. Return of the Jedi

    6. The Force Awakens

    7. Rogue One

    8. Solo

    9. The Phantom Menace

    10. Attack Of The Clones

    11. Revenge Of The Sith

    Uh nice, thanks!

     

    Well the two things I really wanted to see and thought they'd never do is Rey and Ben getting together at the end and past jedi talking to Rey (specifically having liam neeson, hayden christensen, samuel l jackson, ewan mcgrgor and frank oz back) Such powerful scenes and beautifully executed, never thought they'd do that.

    I think having only voices of past jedi instead of force ghosts is really timeless and beautiful. Ben dying at the end really saddens me because rey is kind of alone in terms of her force abilities all over again, sure she has found her identity and can move on from that and has literally chosen her own family, but it would have been so great if ben could have stayed alive. For the sake of ending the skywalker bloodline that had to be necessary i guess. But it's the genious of the film that everyone can think for themselves what happens next (at least for now), If Yoda can strike a lightning as a force ghost and materials can be transferred through the force maybe ben can find a way to get back as well somehow, who knows, I myself believe it.

     

    I think it's kind of funny that a lot of "hardcore fans" hate this film and the whole trilogy and start to really love the prequels, like even famous youtubers who have bashed the trilogy a few years ago now say that it "at least was consistent"...they were not and there are a lot of things that don't fit with the originals... I mean i grew up on them as well but the movies all in all were pretty bad and there are no 2 ways about it. I still can remember getting out of episode 3 in 2005 and being incredibly diappointed, and I was freaking 12 years old and still understood that it wasn't a good movie. I love the phantom menace because it's my first real star wars memory but imagining what would have happened if these would actually have been incredible movies is mind boggling. Like, star wars still had world domination in terms of movie franchises and fandom and still has. So what would have happened if these were really great and intelligent films is crazy to think about. But still, I love them as a fan and childhood memories...

    So Disney comes along and actually respects the franchise and fans still don't like it. I honestly think that any combination of movies in this trilogy would have been received negatively. The force awakens had such a positive feedback in the beginning which slowly faded away over the years. What rian johnson did in 8 was great in my opinion. Like, Luke was on the island for the entirety of the starkiller base fight, why would he now leave the island and suddenly be a badass? If he did, fans would complain about the logic of that as well...and if they would't they would care onl about the fan service, which they now complain about being included in 9...fucking trolls man. The force connection between rey and kylo is (for me personally) one if not the most interesting thing about the entire franchise. I think star wars is one of those things that will always have divisiveness around it because so many people care about it. I wish people were more united about it. For my own taste, they ended the story beautifully.

    Yeah man. Just came out of my third screening...this movie is fucking incredible... wish there were still a spoiler function here to write but well... there were 2 things i wanted to see and they did both of them (in the third act). I love the last jedi but i can't deny that rian johnson kind of messed up a lot that j j had probably planned and set up for the future. And for that J J and chris terrio did an amazing job i think. I feel like with snoke as darth plagueis, which j j most likely had in mind, it would have been a quite predictable movie and trilogy arc. I feel kind of bad for all the people who don't like this film or the whole trilogy, i'm really glad i enjoy it as much as I do, I wish more would.
