From a collector's perspective: limited edition merchandise at theme parks is always in high demand. If it really opens, you definitely have to go on the first day.
As a theatrical film collector, I'd say: the art books for theatrical films usually have the highest quality. The paper and printing are much more refined.
As a BD collector, the 4K version of Attack on Titan has always been on my wishlist. Have you compared the details in the dark scenes? The performance of HDR in the shadows is the real key.
I have the BD Box limited edition too! The packaging design for this set is really beautiful. Its collector's value will only go up, never down.
Must watch all four! I've already bought the pre-sale ticket for Jujutsu Kaisen, IMAX screening. Must support the KyoAni Short Film Collection; KyoAni is worth every penny.
The problem with gachapon is that you can never control what you get... If you really want to collect a full set, I suggest just buying the complete set online instead; it's actually cheaper than pull
As a collector of the theatrical versions, I own the BDs for all five of these. The improvement in image quality for the Disappearance BD is the most noticeable.
The ending of Hotarubi no Mori e. A short film of only a few dozen minutes, yet it had me crying uncontrollably. The most heartbreaking part is that you know the ending right from the start.
BD collections all have the same problem. My BD boxes have already filled up two bookshelves. But BDs are at least lighter and take up less space than figures.
I will definitely buy the BD of the final volume. Regardless of the ending, this work is worth collecting.
