My first R7, and questions...

[whevel]

Hello Again!

Today I just picked up from my local Gamestop the "limited edition" Sonic Adventure from Hollywood video (listed as R7 in the guide). I only paid about $5.30 (us) for it, but it was just the disc itself.
My questions are: Did it come with it's own case/booklet/etc...? Mine has the dreaded Hollywood "security" sticker over the top, but would it be possible to get one without the sticker, or were they put on before they went in the stores? And finally, any thoughts on if it really is an R7? Dreamcast stuff is still pretty easy to find. I live in Oregon, so we've got tons of Hollywoods, so maybe it's rarer somewhere else in the country/world..?
Just some thoughts - any input would be appreciated!

There is a case and manual unique to that game, and you'll be hard pressed to find a copy without a Hollywood Video sticker on it. I'd say it's pretty rare as I've never seen one :D

Oh, and you'll have a bit of competition trying to get a case and manual for it here... we''ve already got a few people "on the prowl" for them.

Congrats on the find. Keep scouring ebay for it and the B&S forums here and AA. I think someone here had multiple copies at one point, I forget who now.

It was me and I sold them on eBay awhile ago. The only one I kept was the complete one that's in my collection.

The Sonic LE topic comes up quite often, and there's more info about it here:

I've never seen one without the sticker. I'd say the majority were sold disc-only, but I've come across complete copies in the wild twice (admittedly I hunt pretty actively for DC). Even better than one without the sticker would be a disc in great shape, though! People who rent take terrible care of their discs - it's ridiculous.

Thanks to a little patience, I scored the perfect Sonic LE over a year and a half ago. No sticker on it, flawless disc, totally complete. I'm going to guess it was never really used or rented or whatever. It makes my Sonic collection very happy :)
