      I was also thinking that there were a lot of very “recent” titles in the collection. I know it’s so that the books are more marketable for children, but the classics like Wonderland and Black Beauty have such pretty covers. It’s a shame there aren’t more of them. Imagine something like a gilded 1001 Arabian Nights or The Odyssey as an ultra rare!

      I’m sure the only way Zuru got the permission from these book’s publishers is to not have the mini books fully readable, but only the first page, because then people would just buy the mini book to read and not bother reading the big book (just my theory but it makes sense).

    I love that this is an option for the people who can't diy, but it's pretty costly for only one or two legible pages.

    The price is definitely steep, especially since they will be more here in Canada. I'm just praying I can buy someone's doubles of Bunnicula and Howliday Inn.

    Ii think you're right that they should have made the capsules square so they could be made into bookshelves. Maybe Miniverse will rise to the competition and add a line of books to the Lifestyle series. They could have several styles of paperweights/bookends to make for the resin component.

    Ironically enough, Pride and Prejudiced and Zombies is one of my sister's favorite books! If its as common as your video makes it seem, I should have no problem finding one for her mini-me
