15th Anniversary Live DVD
Me being the slow me, I have just finished exploring HMV Japan to find that Laruku's 15th Anniversary Live DVD first press is no longer available (obvious, if we're to consider they're popularity).
Oddly enough, I have found the standard version in Japan to be a great deal more expensive than say... the HK version. Certainly, if I were to get the DVD with the nice packaging in "book" format" and the neat little ribbon, I would have no problems forking out the (still a reasonable amount) of extra cash - yes, if only for the packaging, but I have no idea of knowing whether or not the standard edition has this book format or whether it has reverted to the normal plastic DVD casing.
So far I have been told (by both websites AND fans)...
Japan Version: First Press
"Book" format casing: Available w/ribbon
Discs: 2
Postcards: 15
Extras: Yes
Japan Version: Standard
"Book" format casing: Some say Japanese version Standard has book casing but no ribbon, others tell me the standard one means plastic casing.
Discs: 2
Postcards: No
Extras: Some websites say yes, some say no. Oh please; investigate your products.
HK Version
"Book" format casing: No. Plastic casing all the way
Discs: 2
Postcards: Apparently 1 instead of 15.
Extras: Yes.
If I were guarenteed PRETTY book casing and EXTRAS for the expensive-and-sure-to-make-me-broke Standard Japanese edition, I would buy in a heartbeat. But woe betide those who are late in purcasing this legendary package, for sources are conflicted as to whether the standard edition actually has extras or not (such as Pieces - who wouldn't want PIECES in their set list?) :O
Because if they're not, the HK version is a hell of a lot cheaper. :/
Decisions, decisions...
Does any of my L'Arc-orientated f-list know anything about this? S'il vous plait? Bitte?
