When John was alive, he always gave us great products and music for a reasonable price. I don't think he would give his approval to this exorbitant issue.

It´s an overwhelming box.... I'm almost speechless. I am an arty person but not a wealthy one. Thanks a lot Andy for showing us this piece of art.

Jesus Christ! That's almost an 1100 quid gift they sent you! Right, I'm starting my own review channel right now!

Wow!!! Thank you for taking us through the entire box. It is amazing! Great job by the Lennon estate. What a fitting way to honor the music and the artistic legacy.

Although it’s way above what I could afford, I do appreciate you showing its content in great detail….thanks for that..👍

Thank you so much for the unboxing. It is truly a work of art.

It really is a time capsule and Beatiful piece of art , im enjoying this unboxing it’s full of surprises .

Thanks for showing this. I feel that this video will do more for people NOT buying the BIG BOX, and people thinking to charge back or cancel their orders, than selling it, though.

Oh no its not for working class heroes like me!!!

Thanks Andrew for taking the time to show this box. You do a great job presenting this. It looks great.

Thank you Andrew for this wonderful presentation and breakdown of this box. Geez, I can’t help but love it. It’s such an art piece, and you made a really interesting point about these uber boxes tipping the balance in terms of viability. I’m definitely getting the Blu-ray/ CD box and the separate book. Congratulations Andrew and thanks for your insightful thoughts.

Congratulations Andrew and thanks again for this great unboxing ! You're really the best ! And thanks to the Lennon estate for their great work !

Thank you so much for another excellent video and for kindly taking the time to go through all of this Andrew. I’ll never be able to afford this box, but it’s been really enjoyable looking through all of it. It’s certainly a very cool and beautiful package. I’ve seen people complaining about the price, and while it is a lot of money, there’s an incredible amount of stuff included! The Lennon estate have been really generous with this release; it’s been great to see real fans like yourself, BeatleyTone and others who have not only (I presume) spent a lot of your own money on The Beatles plus the various solo releases over the years, but also your reviews have, I assume, resulted in a lot of sales, and it’s so nice to see them recognising that by sending the Mind Games boxes for you to review. It’s not like they’ve been sent to people who couldn’t care less, but people who appreciate the gesture. Also, the Uncut CD - this is essentially giving those of us who buy the 2CD version a 3rd disc of highlights from the big box! (I’d love the Deluxe Edition but I’m now disabled and unable to work (not complaining or looking for sympathy, just stating a fact) so I don’t think I’ll be able to afford it - however as you say, they’re kindly putting it on the streaming platforms and it’s also on preorder for £34.99 on Apple Music, which while you don’t get the lovely book etc is a very good option for those of us on a budget; again, they could have put this behind the paywall of buying the physical box, but instead they’re making this available to pretty much everyone - I think John would approve of that. Especially in a day when record companies are charging more and more for physical media, Yoko and Sean are to be applauded for how they’ve handled this reissue. Thank you again for sharing this and congratulations on having it sent to you - you must be absolutely thrilled! 😊

Congratulations Andrew on receiving this wonderful box set. And thank you for sharing lovely to see. Enjoy it.

What an amazing project. Thank you for showing us. I have always loved the music of the Beatles and John Lennon. Great video and channel.

Congratulations on receiving this from the estate Andrew - well deserved and thanks for showing it as I've been dying to see what it looks like in the flesh(so to speak). What a beautiful piece. Glad you managed to get up from the floor😂

Thanks, Andrew. This is the closest I’m ever going to get to this box set. I know it is ridiculously expensive, but it is a beautiful object and an intriguing piece of art. And it’s John Lennon. What more could we want? I’m very grateful for the time and effort you make to show us these wonderful things. Great job as always!

Congrats, Andrew! I'm happy for you. Your channel spreads a lot of enjoyment throughout Beatledom, so you deserve it!

What a incredible box set!

This was wonderful Saturday morning viewing. An interest concept release with a lot to keep you coming back to it.

Thanx for sharing Andrew. Great video, perfect unboxing and as we all agree, nice piece of art.

Hi, Andrew. Thank you for showing this ridiculously gorgeous box set. It’s also ridiculously expensive, so I’m not going to buy it, the 2 cd version for me. Not because I don’t want it, a purely financial decision. But, yeah, it’s certainly a piece of art, and I’m happy for you and anyone who gets it. Enjoy ! Geir, Norway. 👋👍

A wonderful piece of art. The sonic quality of the music is amazing. It is also a rediscovering of sorts of a neglected album.

This only increases my excitement for when my copy arrives next week! Thanks, Andrew!

Finally got round to watching this today & wanted to thank you for showing us the (mostly) fantastic contents of the huge super deluxe box. I normally quite enjoy the non-musical trinkets that these types of packages, and if I was still a single man, I would likely be willing to drop the coin on this set. However, given my current circumstance, I can't justify doing so ... but I'm glad to be able to see such a detailed presentation of the contents and definitely pleased that a true fan like yourself was able to acquire one. Thanks for sharing, Andrew.

Thanks for showing! That was fun and games.

i have the “you are here“ badge from the incredible Double Fantasy exhibition in Livepool. I saw that exhibition in 2018 and then in 2019 and only then did I notice that they had free badges there. badges and the “breathe“ card that Yoko gave to John.

Brilliant …in-depth review as always…

Great video ! Glad you showed everything in detail, Very interesting.

Thank you so much for this opportunity to see the contents within this massive box set. I’m really on the fence on this. I would need to take money out of savings to buy it, but I’m not sure how often I would enjoy the art of it. Although I love all the art, the vinyl is what I’m really after. Excellent video regardless. Great job again Andrew, and congratulations on adding this amazing piece to your collection.

Strewth! Wow Andrew. What an amazing cornucopia of a box with a wealth of musical, design and art history. And your video is reallt well done, even the floor stuff 😄 Hope you enjoy it and have fun with it as it is well deserved. Cheers from Morten in Oslo 😊

Very beautiful Box!

Hi Andrew very glad you got sent this and thanks for showing us all of its contents. Fascinating - not something I would want myself or be willing to pay that much for, but it's obviously had a lot of time and care spent on it. Personally I'm happy just getting the music but it's intriguing!

Great video to see what that huge outlay would get you - and pleased a genuine fan with a great channel get one - ultimately it’s a lot of repetition and whistles and bells - but it is beautifully put together and yes - artistic ! And we got bonus knobby knees ❤

Your excitement is addictive. Yoko must have had a real hands-on approach as her art and humour are all over this release. Thanks for sharing, love the box, can’t afford it but lovely to see… would love to see the zoetrope released separately and the maps are fantastic. Cheers.

Thank you so much Andrew fascinating video great to see the content I have ordered 6cd can’t wait 🎸👍

I ordered it the day of the announcement and I can't wait to receive it, which is why I haven't seen your video yet, so as not to spoil anything of the content. However, I am very happy that you had the opportunity to review it in advance. Well done! I will be happy to watch your video after unboxing mine, in the meantime I'll like it on trust! 😉🙌👏

Thanks for sharing Lot to go through Looking forward to next video

As I've got no chance of ever owning this piece of art, really nice to see what's in the box. Thanks Andrew for the unboxing enjoy 😊

Andrew many congrats. Love the Uncut magazine with the 9 track CD sampler. I miss the days of CD samplers!

Again…WOW! Really nice presentation. I think my favorite thing is the zoetrope vinyl…looked very cool spinning around. Thanks for the deep dive and advance look into this incredible albeit hefty box set.

This is mad - i love it !

The box set actually looks like a lot of fun. Congratulations on your promotional copy.

Don't know what happened to me. All out of nowhere just started singing "Baby, you're a rich man". Great review, thanks for the insight Andrew!

Thanks Andrew. Great as always. I have less than a fortnight to wait. And even that’s too long! 🎉

What an incredible box, which I knew it would be coming from the Lennon camp. Wish I was able to order this but unfortunately I will have to enjoy my deluxe set. I really did enjoy your presentation Andrew, you do an excellent job, thank you for taking the time for a much enjoyed show. I do think John Lennon would be proud of this set,, Sean did a wonderful job. Take care!

Very impressive work of art! Love the zoetrope discs! 😀

I don't think even Lennon himself would have thought that an album that was re-released on the budget 'Music for Pleasure' label was worthy of this hyperexpensive overblown treatment, but if it funds more physical media releases then I suppose it's ok. Having said that, the 2002 remix by Peter Cobbin was miles better than the original. I'm looking forward to the Super Deluxe Peter Jackson remix of the Star Club tapes, with Star Club ashtray, beer mug, West German work permits, and bottles of Prellies and antibiotics...

Looks amazing Andrew, it's good to see Lennon's solo career getting serious attention, more to him than Imagine. I think I'm going to go for the double vinyl. Nice that they looking after everyone by featuring bonus tracks on all formats. Thankyou for taking the time out to show us the box set much appreciated, you deserve these gifts, nice they appreciate your reviews.

Great video Andrew. Although a born Scouser and avid Lennon fan it would be a dream to have this box but I understand the Lennon estate needs to appeal to different fans with different financial price points. I think Sean is doing great things with his dad's work and look forward to seeing future releases. I'd love to see a documentary style film for the album. It would be great with each release to take a deep dive. Keep up the good work and great to see you rewarded in this way with the box.

Hi mate A beautiful box. It took a lot of inventiveness to develop such an item. Enjoy it Take care.

Very cool, thanks. I'll be just fine with the double vinyl

Wow it’s a amazing set 😊Great video enjoyed it .

Well done by you and The Lennon Estate. I wish I could get it, but it’s outside of my current budget capabilities. I’ll be happy with the digital deluxe set. Cheers Mate!!!!

Wow, that’s a lot to go over. Thanks Andrew

Congratulations, Pal

Thank you !!!

Excellent review and well deserved. I can’t see most of us getting this massive box set. I’m definitely purchasing the two disc set. I’m really only interested in b sides and unreleased songs.

Wonderful video Andrew, an amazing box. It's not for me, i value the music more, but so glad you have it and have shared with us all. Keep up the good work.

Hello Andrew, WOW what a release!! I WISH I was getting this item/items? So MUCH to enjoy!!!! I loved this video you did an excellent job showing all the items . It is WELL WORTH THE MONEY. Enjoy all of the FUN and Mind games that this set will bring . Take Care

21:55 Oh damn I'm going to Liverpool on August 6th. Wow, what a great box set. Thanks for showing its content....enjoy!

Beautiful set. Great unboxing video. But I’m happy with the standard 6 cd box to go along with the previous sets. I hope they sell out though to encourage them to continue with more Ultimate sets.

Congrats! I’m delighted when I get a free coffee!

Hi Andrew, a very nice presentation of this Super Deluxe Box Set, for me it is mostly the music that counts and I sincerely hope that the 7X LP box will one day be released separately. Best Regards from The Netherlands

Thank you, Andrew, for the review and look through the box. A nice gift from the Lennon camp, and well deserved for the work that you put in. A very interesting concept and packed to the gills with intrigue and nicely produced items. Not sure why the negative comments. It is not something that you have to buy to get the music, so if you like the art of it, then why not? I did get the All Things Must Pass box, and do not regret it, but this one was a little too expensive to justify. For those that did order it, I hope that it provides a lot of enjoyment. Having recently visited Japan, I did try to order both maps, but it looks like I was too late. If you have any idea of how it may be possible to get them, let me know. There was some sort of expression of interest option for the Liverpool one but I cannot see any option for the Yoko map. I'm in the UK incidentally. I have ordered the 6CD box and will enjoy the music, I am sure. It was one of the albums I recall buying close to release time, when I first started collecting records under my own steam as a young teenager. The Uncut disc was a good introduction to the set. Have fun with your cube and hopefully pass on some more of its secrets, when appropriate. Thanks again for the detailed overview.

Oof, that is some gift, you deserve it Andrew!

Wow, thanks for showing this Andrew, the cube is a bit pricey for me but I will buy the magazine.

WOW! That is beautiful! I think I need this ;-)

This reminds of the fantastic Lennon ‘Yes’ Signature box from 2010 which made a collection of albums into a work of art.

Another Freebie for Andrew!!! I just don’t know. Are you sure you will have room for that GIANT Box? I really don’t see how you are gonna squeeze that monster on your shelves. 😂 Well, I am really very delighted for you.

Thank you so much for sharing this 😀✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨👍 What a magnificent thing🎵🌞🎵🌞

Thanks for doing such a thorough and well shot unboxing. Entirely too rich for my wallet, but the love and care that has been put into this set is all too evident. Despite having got the three previous Ultimate Collection Lennon sets, I was going to sit this one out as it is far from my favourite JL set. Between your vids & discussions elsewhere, I’m in for the 6CD/BR box now, got a feeling this release will win me over as the Wild Life & RRS Archive Deluxe sets did for those albums. Keep up the good work, it’s appreciated! 👍

A very comprehensive unboxing - thanks for posting. It’s a bit more than the £2.99 I paid for the MFP release of Mind Games from Woolworth’s back in the day but that’s inflation for you. It didn’t come in its own plastic box back then but it did come in its own plastic bag and I even had a few pennies left for some pick ‘n mix 👍

This looks amazing! I'd love to have one, but it is currently out of my price range. Perhaps, if it is available in a few months, I'll pick it up.

The John zoetrope was a really lovely idea, hope you get it working. 🙂

Congrats, Andrew! That is awesome!! 🙂🙂🙂

Thank you Andrew for this. This really is a beautiful box set, but I have to say that this not going to be a set that is going to be played very much, if at all, as this is a very elaborate box to open. However should I be successful with the Euromillions I may consider buying a copy.. Keep your fingers crossed.. I'm now convinced that those are Star constellations on the inside of the first layer, and that and numerology are going to be the keys to solving the puzzles/mind games..

Wow Mr. Dixon You said it Right This is a very impressive box set Unfortunately, I couldn’t afford it because it’s really expensive like you said However, I am thankful that I was able to afford the box with the six CDs and 2 blu-rays I want to thank you Mr. Dixon for going into detail when describing this big fat cube Even though I can’t see, I could imagine that it looks very cool and the fact that everything is stored in a Yoko Ono danger box is very neat It doesn’t really bother me that you could only get the vinyl in this big fat cube because I am mostly a CD buyer and I also want to say thank you to Yoko and Sean because everything else that is in this big fat cube can be bought separately I will catch you on the next video Mr. Dixon and I send my blessings to you and also to Yoko and Sean and to John, who is in heaven

Fantastic extravagant release for an album that initially John Lennon was fairly blasé about on its first release. I remember him being interviewed for Mind Games and he said something like :- " I haven't got anything significant to say about this album. It's just a bunch of songs. That's what singer/songwriters are supposed to do, isn't it? Make albums..." Thanks very much for showing us this release which a lot of us won't be able to afford!

Blimey Andrew! I'd already given myself a good talking to about not buying this & I was staying strong. One view of your video & I've crumbled! It's ordered. Nice review. 👌🏼

Homer [the Smithers, Season 7]: (to Mr. Burns) "Here are your messages: You have thirty minutes to move your car, you have ten minutes, your car has been impounded, your car has been crushed into a cube, you have thirty minutes to move your cube. (the phone rings) Y'ello, Mr. Burns's office." Mr. Burns: "Is it about my cube?"

Im be scared to peel that gaint square onion ... as id never get it back together again! Thanks for the unboxing Andrew very interesting!

IF it was half the price... MAYBE the Collector in me would be having silly ideas. Thankfully, it is a months wages and out of my price range 😄

Thanks again Andrew. If you're willing to pick up the tab on my credit card I'll have one 😉

Are you the only KZfaqr to get the cube sent to you in addition to the 6CD set?! Well done, Andrew. You deserve it.

I see your REL woofer in the background, a lot of people would dismiss such a thing for a 2 channel system, I couldn't go without one now, adding that punch in the low end has improved my listening experience greatly. I will stay with my original CD thanks in part to my sub woofer and streaming.

as a fan I would love to get everything but the cost puts it out of the question. I am working on getting the deluxe box cd set however! Loved the Lennon Liverpool map and when you said it was available seperately, I checked it out only to be sold out. I will continue to see if will come back in stock. Thanks Andrew for another great presentation and very happy you received that cube !!

I’m looking 👀 forward too my copy of the Beatles book 📕 get back I can’t wait to read it

That's a truly impressive box. Kudos to the Lennon estate for their inventiveness, and thanks for this excellent sneak peek, Andrew.

Mindblowing mingame indeed

Great unboxing. Very informative. Would you please do a quick video of how it is put back together? Especially interested in how do you keep the panels up to get the cube back over them. That's four panels that have to be held in place for the outer box to go over.🤔🤔🤔

I think you’re the only one who received this from all the other You Tubers I watch!!!

I love The Beatles. I love a lot of the music they recorded as solo artists. But...to spend that kind of money on the box set -or even buy the 2-album set- is crazy, imho. The only 2 songs I know on the album are 'Mind Games' and 'One Day At A Time'. To spend big money in the hopes that the rest of the songs will grow on me is over the top. In any case, congrats on your free deluxe box. Thanks for sharing.

You must be exhausted after this Unboxing! Personally I saw a lot of Cardboard and a lot of Paper. John didn’t think much of this LP back in the day and I agreed with him. Have a rest Andrew, you deserve it. 😂

Hi Andrew. Great review of the unboxing. With no additional music I wonder how many people will be canceling their order? Making it available for the one's who can appreciate the artwork and the games to play.

Another fine video. Thank you Andrew. I am a wee bit envious, but good on you. I really don't have the strong desire to own a huge box set like that or the All Things Must Pass one, but I am really glad to see what is inside. I honestly think that the price of the box is truly commensurate with the manufacturing costs for all those reproductions and other tchotchkes. On the opposite side of your Leeds visit which you probably could have written off your taxes as video costs, you may need to talk with the taxman about this box of poetry and declare the pennies.

I would love to get that box set but of course the only thing that is stopping me is the price, that is why I went with the 6 CD box 😊

Thanks Andrew ! Even though I definitely won’t buy this gorgeous set, this video definitely makes me want to buy the 2LP vinyl : if it’s packaged the same way as in this box, I’m really happy to see poly-lined sleeves ! I hate the inner sleeves that are included in the Imagine and Plastic Ono Band reissues, they have scratched my LPs 😡

Interesting to see it all. The cardboard ‘cylinder’ with the zoetrope discs is a zoetrope - I imagine it will fit on the turntable. Looked like a couple of stereoscope pictures on the sleeves in the full vinyl. Going with the theme I’d say one was John, the other yoko. Also another sleeve in the box with the plastic cover to give you the two image trick.
