Because I like everything to be consistant I bought this.
Anime completists rejoice as the limited edition cover art for the sixth volume of Lucky Star is now available. The Bandai Store has put up for order with immediate availability the limited edition cover to the sixth volume of Lucky Star. Fans will remember that the Limited Edition version of the series was pulled almost at the last minute which meant that if you had the five LE covers beforehand with all the special crayon drawing artwork, you suddenly had an out of place cover. And some fans even insisted that they weren't going to buy the regular edition.
Well, Bandai has finally, finally, offered a working solution for fans fifteen months after the final volume of the series came out by selling direct on their site just the Limited Edition cover. For a buck. Or on sale right now for just .75 cents. Shipping will eat into that a bit with an average of $2.38 for the cheapest option, but for those who wanted the special limited edition artwork that Kanata drew of all her friends, this is the way to go.
So they're going to actually charge us to fix their mistake? No thanks Bandai. I don't care if they're only charging 75 cents. This should be a free offer. When Capcom screwed up the Okami box art on the Wii, you know what they did? They not only sent us free replacement covers, they also sent us 2 brand NEW replacement covers to go with the fixed original. All for free, and with free shipping. THAT is how you treat your fans when you screw up.
There is NO WAY that I'm putting more money into Bandai's pockets after the crap treatment they've given fans. It's just not going to happen.
Could someone please tell me what is the point of this 'generous' offer if I live in the UK and Bandai refuse to ship anywhere outside US territories? Does the world cease to exist halfway across the Atlantic?
I had almost forgot that they had cut off the last LE cover!
They should offer this as a Download, as well as a purchase.
If you bought volume 6 from a legitimate retailer (and can prove it through some sort of co-op), then they should give it to you for free (or free plus shipping).
Albanian, since they only have the license to sell it in the US and Canada, then yes, legally speaking from their contract, the rest of the world ceases to exist.
As a collector, it's definitely worth the price. The LE set would have cost a "little" more. Wish they'd offer the CDs and the remaining character CDs.
F yeah!
I can't believe I'm going to buy this -_-
