+ print run will be shared with Italy, France, Germany,...

The slips won't be though, so there will be an element of actual limited stock per country. Imagine they'd be more troublesome to reprint than simple jcards.

I had none of them and was surprised to order 5 of of the titles on amazon 10 minutes ago.. Did not expect that.

Put in an Order for this..
Don't presently own the movie and wasn't particularly interested in the initial Vice Press release but these could turn out much better if the steelbook finish is decent...

Will it?

There seems to be no consistency with the Steelbooks outside of UK. The second wave of the bigboxes released completely in Germany, France and Italy. But the Steelbooks are different.

At this point in time it was possible to order the following Steelbooks:


Germany:
Blade Runner
2001
Goodfellas
Redemption


France:
2001
Apollo
Goodfellas
Jaws


Italy
Apollo
Jaws
Scarface


The only logic behind this could be the languages on the discs. I know that the 4 Warner titles have all german dubs on the disc and the Universal titles dont. So maybe thats the reason why only the Warner titles seem to be available in Germany.

As a collector from Germany this release strategy is quite frustrating. I ordered all 7 from Zavvi now. If there should be an option later on to order all 7 in Germany, I can still cancel my Zavvi order. But I would prefer some clear communication about the worldwide releaseplans of this Steelbook series.

Its actually not that inconsistent... all the German releases are WB, and the Italian ones are Universal. That's straightforward, and doesn't necessarily mean they won't get the others, could just be timing thing.

France have 2 from each studio, which again may lead to them having them all at some point, may be just be a timing thing. Regardless, yes, these are obviously shared print runs across EU, i.e not UK exclusives.

Now France has all titles up at Amazon except Scarface.

So right now we have 4 titles for Germany, 3 for Italy, 6 for France and 7 for UK.
