The steelbook is ok but does has it's faults
It would have been a nicer release if no Lenticular magnet was used and been a gloss finish
Disney Europe need to use better supplier for the lenti magnet in terms of size and lenti effects
The inside artwork is a mess and should have been fixed before released

I like the WWA release but like Blufans release better

Yes, the Blufans is cropped better but as I prefer very different artwork on my steelbook to that on my Amaray I personally wouldn't go for it over the very different front art of the Zavvi.. . . or rather I would go for it had it been priced the same as the Zavvi. In fact, I would have bought both had they been priced the same (@GBP 25).
Having just seen pics of that edition I can certainly see the attraction and I've got to admit that it is a thing of beauty and a very stylish-looking steelbook and as I'm a fan of Tyler Stout artwork I don't mind "busy" (LOL)

Apparently the mondo age of ultron has been cancelled but I imagine it's just a delay and will happen eventually to match the first mondo steel

If that does happen I hope to god blu fans don't get it. That was a crazy price for a barebones mondo steel. Especially for the variant slip.
But it is a beauty (just like their AOU WEA you mentioned)
 
You're joking of course ?
You're saying you don't rate / like any of these Mondo X steelbook artworks ?

Not joking .
Only Mondo IMO worthy of my cash are
Reservoir Dogs
Boondock Saints
Dredd
The rest are a mess. ( in fact Nightcrawler may just be the ugliest steel I have seen)

I must admit after finally seeing this in the flesh, the steelbook on the outside excluding the lenticular magnet is quite nice, the metallic finish to caps shield and lack widows arm are a nice touch, ultron image is also good. cropping not great at all on the inside but I can live with it. after all the hate over this release its not bad.

Grabbed this and Alice Through The Looking Glass steel as they're both @ £12.99. Then added the NUS10 code that @dan8885 posted for another 10% off. Thanks for the heads up :)

Did the same thing only I did the ordering yesterday and I wasn't aware of the NU10 code :(
Oh well, still a nice deal, since I first had them preordered at full price :p
 
Terrible steelbook. Missmatch lenti, cropped back artwork, messed up inside. I seriously wouldnt accept it even if i got it for free.
Several of the re-released Marvel movies suffer from this. It feels so damn cheap, like a complete amateur with no sense of aesthetics designed it. Yuck. Nopes, i have way higher standards than that.
