Default Blood+ Part 1 / Part 2 Korean boxsets

Hi, did a quick search, couldn't find any relevant threads. I'm looking to buy Blood+ but the US Part 1 boxset is ridiculously high priced. Then I stumbled upon the Korean version on yesasia with English dubs and subs.

Has anyone got this version and be willing to share pics or advise as to how the set is packaged?

Interesting, I didn't know the Korean release had both English sub/dub. For the curious, here is the Part 1 listing @ YesAsia.com. More interestedly, I don't see Part 2 releases listed anywhere.

Hmm...

If part 2 shows up, and if anyone ends up buying these, can you tell me if the english dub is included for the last segment of the last episode (unlike the US release)? If so I will probably buy it...

Part 2 of the US release can be obtained relatively easily (yet expensively) so it's only one i'm interested about the packaging for really.

WTK, the cover you linked to does indeed look like thinpaks in a slipbox. I may take the plunge!!

That's what I did - I got the US release for part 2 and the Korean release for part 1. The Korean release looks exactly like the US release of part 2 and is 6 discs in 3 thinpak cases with a thin carboard container. The spines of the US and Korean discs match very closely although the US spines are a dark brown-red colour while the Korean ones have a blackish stripe. From more than a foot away they look pretty much identical though.

I thought the US version's were a set like this with a slide off top or is this a limited edition version?? Confusing isn't the word lol.
