What does a truly "Complete" Vasteel look like?

I have only seen a copy with the sleeve once.  It was an action on Ebay and was BEAT.  IIRC Exile 2 also had a sleeve (sadly mine does not).  Are there any others?

You and I probably saw the same auction, nectarsis. I got a near complete Vasteel right here including map, manual, and cd game (though baffles me why they two places to put the cd) with the only thing missing is the slipcase from reaching the pedestal of completeness.

Though there was someone on the DP forums selling 5 rare Turbo games including Exile II with slipcase, but he was kinda greedy and wanted top dollar for all of them. Offered $75 but he refused. *sigh* Those slipcases are going to be the death of me cause find two slips of specific, rare paper isn't going to be easy.   :(

Since all the other Working Designs games came in boxes, probably not (excepting the SG titles of course).

it has a slippy thing I believe.  Because WD always goes over the top with stuff.

ill check my friends copy and see how his is.  He bought it new.

I find it interesting that the WD special editions were often far beyond the Japanese special editions they were trying to emulate.

WD was in no way a perfect company but I miss how delightfully over the top they were.

Well, you could say the spirit lives on. Special Editions are very common now. Even Street Fighter IV has a special edition, and no other SF game ever did.

Of course this sort of thing might have been set into motion by WD, but you can always wonder.

The practice of truly supernatural delays, (another WD innovation) is popular now too. Gran Turismo 5, for example, would make Vic proud.

Alot of the delays were worth it with WOrking Designs though.  It made sprinting to the mall from 5th grade alot more fun that day it did come out.  I literally ran 4 miles without stopping and showed up and just went

"LUNAR.  NEED.... NOW.... PLEASE" and dropped a fistful of change and bills down.  Lol.

.....Then I ran home, and let the glory commence.
