Has anything else been revealed yet?

Traveller in Time · #2 Post by **Traveller in Time** » 28 Jul 2010 20:39

I think this question can be only answered when someone got it and is kind enough to show pics and tell what is inside (and how it is opened)

But no further description by NB so far.

The top-notch in premium box sets: the BLIND GUARDIAN pyramid (height: 20 cm, base: 20 X 21 cm, weight: approx. 2,8 kg) with the new masterpiece. Exclusive to NUCLEAR BLAST mail-order customers! Limited and numbered to 1500 units!

I heard Arenamaster downloaded the pyramid box set and made a lot of people angry by doing so.

Thanks, but that is the description we already knew.
50 euro for just a pyramid and the album and maybe some card on which is the unique serial number, can't be all, or?

Unfortunately no NB package today...hoping for tomorrow.
Has anybody received a delivery mail, yet?

T3hOverlord · #12 Post by **T3hOverlord** » 29 Jul 2010 18:37

on the picture theres some dragon coins in front of it, so I assume we'd get those, also, ATiTM had a cirtificate of authenticity with it so i think we'll get that and maybe autographs or something.

Arwen Arianna · #13 Post by **Arwen Arianna** » 29 Jul 2010 18:48

It's really strange, because not even the CD is on the picture... I think that is usually the case, isn't it?

Traveller in Time · #14 Post by **Traveller in Time** » 29 Jul 2010 19:20

I got the digipack today!

@Arwen: Indeed, but it is declared as boxset, and every boxset had an album so far

But is it the digi pack?

The special vinyl box seems interesting, in a Interview it was said that there are some liner notes about the song lyrics

yeah but 55 euros, mhhhhh....

For this money you can go to another concert and maybe ask Hansi about the song lyrics by yourself

EDIT: It was said in the Metal Hammer report:
Hansi:

Translation:

I personally prefer vinyl, that's why i am happy that AtEoT will be released as double and fourfold vinyl additionally.
Especially the fourfold vinyl edition is very extensive made and explains the ideas of the song lyrics in details.

T3hOverlord · #17 Post by **T3hOverlord** » 29 Jul 2010 21:11

i think jason or someone said at one point that the digipack is included in the pyramid boxset, i think it comes out the bottom or something

So, what's in the Box? ...anything else than the 2-Disc-limited-special-enhanced-digipack-edition-with-download coupon?

majesty · #27 Post by **majesty** » 31 Jul 2010 10:36

I can´t tell, haven´t got it yet

Same here.
NB packages are usually delivered by DPD Classic. They are pretty fast but they don't deliver on Saturdays.
So it seems that there will be no pyramid today

Considering how much we paid for the fricking pyramid, I don't think it would be too much to ask of NB to send them on Thursday instead of Friday evening

Blackened · #31 Post by **Blackened** » 31 Jul 2010 11:18

Totally agree!

Monday it is then... (hopefully)... I'm thinking about writing a letter to NB

majesty · #34 Post by **majesty** » 31 Jul 2010 13:17

Good idea. I ordered my Box-set months before to get it as early as possible, and now it seems I´ll be the last who get it. That´s not fair.

Yes, they can simply be changed by sticking them in the guardians hands.

No, but it's pretty massive. Some sort of stone.

It probably is something like that but it feels pretty stony.
