Apologies if this has been covered before.
I just received my Ultimate Edition HBK that I ordered from amazon.com
Forgot to cancel the US one after they became available on Amazon.co.uk(Perfect birthday present for my brother now)
I'm curious as to why the UK version doesn't have the copy or vote results on the back of the box.
Which one would be considered more rare?
Any ideas?
Thanks

The UK one doesn't have any of that additional stuff because it's an international package. Even packages in Canada are like that

All international boxes (elites, basics, ultis) havent english text on the box.
Its because of EU laws.
Canada gets the international version because of the many french speaking fellas i guess ;-)

I’d rather have the English version but I don’t think anyone is rarer than the other.

Wow, I didn't know this. I'm glad I do now. I mean, it isn't THAT big of a deal I suppose, but at the same time it's just big enough that I'll stick with ordering the US version from here on out. Yeah, the box difference isn't that big a deal - BUT if you're a MIB collector, it's nice to have all of one or the other: since this 2022 blue packaging, I have them all in the Euro style (mainly because with Amazon and Smyths, they're a LOT easier to get!). |

Yeah,I'm not a big fan of the international packaging. I lot rather have the US version but that might have more to do with my OCD then the packaging itself.

I prefer the US boxing over the “UK” boxing. (I believe it’s actually international boxing not UK, but tomato tamato) . It’s the same with elites series except top picks, they seem to have the US boxes, at least here in Australia.

The international packaging is by far more rare.
