Defender Of The Crown Extended Collectors Cut
« on: May 16, 2016, 11:59:51 PM »
Couldn't find an appropriate or older thread referencing the new DOTC release, but wanted to forward a bit of the latest update:

..."So there was one question about how we seal the boxes. One thing i underestimated a little bit the interest about sealing the boxes because i am a collector, but more in using this stuff. So i checked the possibilities to seal the boxes. First was to shrinkwrap them. The issue here is that the Box and the Content comes from different producers so i can´t shrinkwrap them there. I also could use a shrinkwrap-machines for home offices but i don´t think the quality will be so good after i read several manuals and articles about it. Also it would also another expansion of the shipping and i really want to ship this asap. So i will tomorrow order 1000 Cinemaware-Seals to seal the boxes. I think this should be a solution for collectors of sealed boxes and also for collectors who wanna play".

"You all could do me a favor. Some of the receipts don´t get this update so it would be great if you could copy this info into communities that you are active. Also replies will take a bit longer, i will take some days off till the packing and shipping process starts in the next week. When i am back, i will also write a bigger update regarding "Wings - Remastered Edition for Amiga".

Greetings
Sven"

I wish they'd at least come out and say why the shipping date keeps getting pushed back...

Sven has explained why the excruciatingly long delay month after month. Sometimes twice a month to let us know what went wrong *this* time. Received a message from him today in fact... and all orders have been shipped!

Give it another month or two and HOPEFULLY a non-crushed box from Germany will finally show.   :lol:

Look what finally arrived the other day and in good shape! Ordered 12/24/15, arrived 10/14/16.   :lol:  

Lots of goodies included, one is a 'thank you' letter signed by Sven. A few postcards, vinyl pixelated sticker, 12x17 foldout poster, manual, advertising and supplement. Have my CD32 packed away right now, but can't wait to see what the new opening sequence is like. In the meantime, will be framing and hanging the poster.   :)

Anyone else receive theirs yet?

It's up here and they've added Wings and It Came From The Desert T-shirts since I last visited the site.  Not sure if Rocket Ranger was already on there before.

Please forgive me for this, but back in the day a friend of mine would always tell me they should do a porn version of this game and call it "It Came In The Desert".

Ever since then I can't look at this game without thinking of that.  Sadly, it still makes me laugh.

Sorry...

Lol, doesn't quite fit the story-line of "Them" but sounds funny.

I can beat that...

'It Came In The Dessert'.

If that's a little unpalatable for some of you, just remember:

'From The Desert It Came'.
