Got mine 5 minutes ago.
It looks just awesome.
And there are some surprises, like the manual is actualy in color and they included the poster.

Maybe the first reprint copy to arrive to Spain (not mine, no):

bueno pues.... primera reprint puede ser ??? me he quedado flipado, porque me lo ha traido HOY sabado el cartero.... certificado. Crei que los sabados no curraban en correos repartiendo, pero bueno, como les estoy pagando la universidad de sus hijos pues.... XD

viene en blister.....


que por supuesto ya he abierto, y en su interior nos encontramos, unas pegatinas, el cartucho, un poster pequeño, y las instrucciones, qeu son en color. Ademas trae una pagina que viene en castellano. El grueso de las instrucciones, en ingles y japones.

I received the first of my Reprint copies today. And I am looking forward to the second copy which is actually for playing and maybe taking part in the contest.

Thorium already mentioned it: the manual is actually in colour and not simply in b/w. Very nice surprise.

And this clamshell edition looks very very stylish indeed. Probably the best cover art of all the editions, this "dark beauty". Or maybe I have a different taste.

Although poster and stickers are included, they have different SKUs to distinguish them from the other materials used in the classic editions.
reprint inlay, manual, sticker sheet, cartridge label and poster all have SKUs ranging from 725-0104 to 725-0107 or something like that.
So the poster is different from the original one, the one in the classic and posterity editions is larger, if I remember correctly.

And one more thing: I managed to open the package without damaging the seal, the seal can be removed and peeled off carefully. And it can be re-sealed later again, the glue still maintains its "adhesive qualities".

I just did that because I had a used classic copy with damaged seal. Noe I swapped the cases. My classic edition now looks like an unopened version, whereas my reprint edition has a damaged seal.

Just for those who are aiming for a "sealed" copy on eBay: the seal can be removed and put back on again. So there is no acual certainty anymore. Maybe this brings prices down a bit, who knows?

I have received this morning a copy of my Reprint Edition!!
It's amazing the quality of materials used, detailed color manual (thank you) and love that has been put in general to everything.

Now it's time to play ... I have to get my MegaDrive + MegaCD, burn audio CD and play!

PD: Another Spanish with the Reprint Edition!

Argh! Still waiting for my reprint copy... can't wait!

After 70+ days I have finally received my copy! (First Run). Although I Beta tested the game, I freaking love it. I have about 3.5h sunk into it. I had people over for supper today but tomorrow it's all Pier Solar. I would like to personally thank everyone that have work so hard for the past 6 Years to make this come true.

Tycho > Great, maybe customs inspection? Was the blister seal broken?

It's possible. Blister seal was not broken.

Started playing it today, it's very good indeed! Thanks very much, I'm very happy with it

I got my cartridge in yesterday and it looks fantastic. The WaterMelon humor was packaged in as well. The cartridge was protected by some cardboard on both sides. The front said "instructions on back". The back said "Open Now!!!".

Thanks for the game guys. It looks great!

Got my copy today, really outstanding packaging and everything

Really impressed with how much the case and game cartridge are like all my other mega drive games, the plastic feels the exact same even though its completely newly made, hard to explain but its cool! Great job guys!

[Candy_Cougar]

Anyone know if there is any chance of getting a tracking number for a reprint order now that it's been 20 days? Not trying to be impatient at all, just really excited and would love to know exactly how close this game is to me in Cali.

I'm amazed a 14 year old buys our game before he gets a Mega Drive. It feels so fantastic!
