Got my dented corner Amazon copy today!
Thanks for the envelope and the thoughtless packaging Amazon.
Winners don't do Amazon (another victim claimed).
If anyone is willing to part ways with some of the additional content of the LE, for around $60 let me know.
I just want the artbook, pins and soundtrack. XD
Not the box or game with reversible cover.
So...Amazon just put some on sale, so ended ordering one for $47.99. Guess I'll have the game and box too. XDI might be getting a second LE that I forgot to cancel. I'll let you know what pans out
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could help.
I got the UK limited edition (the massive wtf box) and can't seem to get the pin box back into it's cardboard indent at the top of the box.
When I try and close the lid it's as if the pin box is too big. Is there a method to this?
Sorry if I sound like a total idiot.

Did the same thing, white insert that holds game/amiibos catches on one of bottom cardboard edges, wiggle it about and push down, should sit well below the art book
Could anyone post a pic of the US LE with a game case for scale? I'm thinking about sending the Euro monstrosity back and getting the US one.
Its up on Amazon US right now
Received mine from Amazon in the dreaded paper envelope and the bottom corners of the box and the art book are crushed up. Everything else is fine and the box isn't that big a deal to me but the state of the art book really upsets me. Do y'all think there's a chance I could get a replacement for just the book from Nintendo or should I try getting a replacement for the entire set from Amazon?
Yeah the US LE is massive because of the size of the included artbook.
Holy SHIT is the artbook disappointing. They made this thing look so much more substantial in the photos than it actually is. I was so excited to have an artbook full of Hidari's gorgeous character designs, but this thing looks like it barely runs 50 pages.
I'm distraught, brehs. :-(
I felt the same. Funny considering I wouldn't be as dissapointed if it had smaller dimensions but more pages.
I was spoiled by the artbooks of Bravely Second and Awakening last year.
Thanks! Yeah, that's already huge. Might as well stick with the Euro version then.Since EU has the amiibo pack ins it i'm guessing it's much larger width wise but it still looks huge as shit to me.
I feel like I'm the only one that never goes in with full artbook expectations. Things like Bravely Second are suuuuuuper rare, yet everytime people get disappointed when the artbooks aren't a full 200-pg $40 msrp arbook. I actually get surprised when we DO get a full-sized artbook
Try this.Amazon isn't the only problem.
Received my best buy order today, and it was obviously packed by an idiot. Bubble mailer, smashed to hell.
Anybody want it? I'll call it $60 shipped media mail, in a box to alleviate any additional damage.
I'll post pictures if somebody doesn't claim it before I can get them taken and uploaded.

Hmm. Seems like imgur "simplified" the format, and now I can't get it to work, but that link should take you to the album.
Yeah same thing happened to mine. It's not TOO bad but it is disappointing to me. Wish they had given it some padding.I got my LE today from Gamestop. It was in a box, so it wasn't damaged, but there were a few places on the back of the box where the color got rubbed off the game's box because it was in a cardboard box with no padding and could move around.

I'm going to guess that this artbook is similar in length to the old NISA ones that were large and hardcovered.
I'm surprised it still is! It's been like that all day. How many cancellations were there???Don't know if it's been said, but the LE is available on Amazon right now.

Dang. They only offered me 30%. I ended up taking it like half an hour before they popped back in stock. So I just ordered a new one. We'll see what it looks like when it shows up and I'll just return the crappier one.Like most here, my LE was shipped in a damned Bubble mailer from Amazon and damaged because of it.
I swear, every time. Every single time. I've had them ship me TINY items in huge ass boxes that are so overprotective it's stupid, yet every single time I get a collector's Edition from them, it's damaged in some way.
The good news at least is when I write to them about it, they always take care of me. Such was the case this time as well.
If any of you got a crushed box, try writing Amazon about it. YMMV of course, but I was offered the option for a exchange (since they *Surprise* have them in stock), or to keep my item for a discount. I ended up going with the latter, though they did not initially say how much the discount would be, but it ended up being 50% off. I can live with that.
Maybe a bunch of "fans" cancelled when they realized there is no shipping and kids.
Mine came from best buy, as I missed the boat on Amazon. Was packed super well though, large box with tons of air packets. Normally I don't like best buy but kudos on the shipping.
Seems weird how much it varies from person to person.
