Looks like all my packages came at once today
Something that I noticed is that Nekomonogatari's disc says disc 2 which is really odd. It only comes with one disc and this apparent disc 2 has all of the episodes on it that it should. I'm really curious if this is a printing mistake or if it's some kind of holdover from the Madman release. If so, what could possibly be on disc 1? Very strange. Also, does anyone have any tips on how to get that sticker residue off of the box? It came like that and I really hate it when stickers leave marks on the box like that.

Same disk two label on mine weird.
Cex stickers can be a bit of a pain. The longer they have been on the harder they are to remove too.
In the first instance if the sticker overlaps the film cover and the plastic box separate the film cover from the plastic box and the part of the sticker attached to the box itself should come away. Then simple peel the rest of the sticker. (it looks like you should be able to do this with your FMA.
In the case where you can't do the above first try getting the edge of a sticker off and then peeling. If that fails use a little moisture to get the first edge off. finally if all else fails remove a small part at a time using a little moisture to loosen it.

I got the stickers off of the FMA box and Monogatari box just fine, I was talking about how the residue on the bottom of the Monogatari box that's already there. It's a little hard to see in the picture but there is a tone of residue on the bottom where the price label was but has been removed for some reason before I actually got it. Might try and see if I can get it off with a damp cloth or something.

Acetone free nail polish remover is great for removing sticker goo.

Would that work in taking off stickers that won't come off without damaging slipcovers?

I've taken stickers off the back of manga volumes with it before and it was fine. Just don't oversaturate the cotton wool/whatever you use to apply it.

I didn't even know stuff like that existed, thanks for the tip.

For those who may be unfamiliar with buying nail polish remover. Make sure you buy stuff that's acetone free. Acetone dissolves plastic and paper 
I wish I was unfamiliar with buying nail polish remover, but after being cornered by my two sisters on holiday...*shudders*st_owly said:For those who may be unfamiliar with buying nail polish remover. Make sure you buy stuff that's acetone free. Acetone dissolves plastic and paper

Picked up from the post office today, as last week i was away hiking in the Eifel region in Germany. In case someone wonders why today, well yesterday was National Holiday in Belgium and on Monday the post offices made the bridge towards the holiday, so closed for two days.

For anyone interested (Probably not a lot of you ) I looked into it and the reason why Nekomonogatari Black said Disc 2 on it was indeed a holdover from the Australian release where it was released as a DVD/Blu Ray combo, meaning disc 1 would have contained the episodes on DVD.

Sigh I still have yet to pickup Freedom's Blu-ray Disc Box. I nearly did at MCM Comic Con (it was £85 but it was there) and I decided not too. So uhh how did you get yours then?
I know Amazon US has some available and I think Rightstuf might have 1 copy left.
If you haven't got Gunbuster vs Diebuster, it's on a good price at Amazon US.

It's the UK edition - I got it from an amazon UK marketplace seller for £35. There's one on there at the moment for £40 although I can't vouch for the seller and the disks are described good condition with light surface marks.

edit: I think the UK version is identical aside from the wrap around brown bit with BBFC logo's?
