Entirely geeky, I fully admit, but they're going to look great in my home theater... larger versions are clickable.

Are they promo pieces?

They were included in the Blu-ray keepcases of those titles. Patlabor 1 also had one as well but I opted to do movie 2 first. There was a sizeable push on the TrueHD front with these releases and they included the card and sticker as promotional pieces in the keepcase.

They're not included in the U.S. releases, though (Honneamise, at least).

That's unfortunate but not too surprising.

Avalon comes w/ sticker.

The rest of the titles I don't believe were done in TRUE HD, so they didn't come with that. Off the top of my head, I know Jin-Roh did not come with a sticker or a card.

These are in reference to the Japanese releases.

I'm amused you actually framed these.

Heh. I wanted something "unique" for my media room. I figure there won't be too many of these stickers or cards out there overall and I didn't want them to end up in the big box of oddities I've collected over the years. Plus this lets me annoy my wife a little bit!

Certain BV Japan titles were given the Dolby TRUE HD treatment. Honneamise, Patlabor 1 & 2, Avalon, etc. Inside the HD Amaray Case had a collectible card and/or the TRUE HD sticker.

Chris just framed his. Which amused everyone here and at BVUSA.

I didn't realize it was a sticker put on a different frame. Were the frames some form of freebee at a trade show? All I got from Dolby was a zipper pull for a coat.

My guess is he purchased the frames and mounted the stickers and card. To my knowledge, Dolby did not give anything out like this at any trade show.

Yeah, I had it all done at a local framesmith, it's a custom job. I had some old Dolby Digital things years ago along with DTS for one of my previous media rooms but they got damaged over the years. This is both HD geeky and anime geeky so it works well for me.

Here's hoping SOS has the sticker and card!
