Thank you so much for sharing theses videos. SO many of these books I want to see more than just the publisher photos and you are pretty much the only one who shows the unboxing experience. Thank you thank you for letting us be part of it!
I think the company is going to try adding a more economically priced edition to the lineup with their next book. That could be great for folks that want quality, but aren’t going to pay $500 for a book. It sounds like a good idea to me.
I specialise in rare editions of Frankenstein but after seeing this video I definitely wouldn’t include this in the collection. There’s also the irony that they call it the Doctor edition in relation to a novel where not once is Frankenstein referred to as a Doctor. There are many alternative editions out there which I would recommend way ahead of this one.
Which ones would you pick? I have a the Easton Press stitch cover edition. And the Folio Society limited edition is tame in comparison. What do you include in your collection?
@eldritchpumpkinghost2968 I want the Folio Society edition, too. I have the Amaranthine Doctor Edition, the latest Easton Press standard edition, and the “Pretty Books” Edition. The Amaranthine is by far the best that I have, but it’s also far more expensive. I think for the money, the Easton Press edition looks nice, looks “classic”, and doesn’t cost that much.
@@itsterrific I paid a little extra for the stitch variant of the Easton Press edition due to the Black Moire Silk Endpapers. Otherwise it’s the same as the new one, I tried looking for the other rare editions of Frankenstein like the other comment mentioned. I can’t really find anything except nice leather rebinds or ones with meh black and white art. Folio and Amaranthine seem like the best options.
@eldritchpumpkinghost2968 www.eastonpress.com/deluxe-editions/mary-shelleys-frankenstein-3656.html I’d love to get the Easton Press Limited Edition. I may end up buying it after-all.
A really nice addition to your library. I don’t think Amaranthine is my bag, in general, but this release was the closest of any they’ve done thus far to peaking my interest. Enjoyed getting to see more of it via your video.
I have their Dracula edition. I like the design concepts and details in their books. I thought about Frankenstein, but I passed as I’m not a fan of that book like I am Dracula. Great unboxing as usual Tim.
@@itsterrific I’m excited for what Paul might do, the 50 copy Amaranthine edition had actual Transylvanian dirt that made the book’s box an actual coffin!
@@itsterrific Amaranthine never fails to deliver on uniqueness. Catch-22 looks amazing, I hope I can buy an essential edition Wednesday. I can’t see how many are left on the site. I would have bought Sherlock, but I’m only interested in Hound if the Baskervilles for that character.
I’m sure there will be copies available for general release. I’m trying to decide on the numbered edition. It’s $660 US, which is a little more than I want to spend, but I want rights to be able to get 2001 A Space Odyssey. ⚖️

Thank you for the kind words Colton. It makes it fun for me.
Absolutely incredible…congrats on adding such a spectacular volume to your library.
It is a great addition. The case and book cover design are so incredible.
Amaranthine books makes some pretty amazing books. Some of them are a bit extra but the quality is pretty awesome.
This is my first, and it is phenomenal!
Very cool... wish it wasnt that expensive otherwise would have picked up.

Nice! I like the scalpel!🤣
I love cool additions like that.
You have by far the best library of any man or woman alive lol
The best in my neighborhood, for sure.😁

I intend to get their next two releases, which will be Sherlock Holmes (I don’t know which title) and Catch-22.
I look forward to experiencing them vicariously through your videos :)

The Dracula editions are without a doubt the definitive versions of the novel
Thanks Flash! I didn’t find out about Amaranthine until after Drac sold out. It looks cool.
That’s what I’ve heard. I’m interested to see what Suntup does with Dracula. Paul sounded like it was an eventuality.
@@itsterrific I’m excited for what Paul might do, the 50 copy Amaranthine edition had actual Transylvanian dirt that made the book’s box an actual coffin!
That is such a cool touch.
Wow...$500.00!!!. 🤦
👍
It’s worth every penny!
It is one of the nicest, and by far the most unique book that I own. I’ve never seen anything like it.
