Fantastic! I love the understated look & velvet feel of FilmArena's Slipboxes. It particularly matches with this movie.

Couldn't agree more. This release really checked all the boxes for me (except I prefer WEA when possible like with Blufans):

- Title on the spine and front of the steelbook
- Lenticular is a fun transition and has the title on it as well
- Beautiful steelbook, nice colors and thematically so well designed
- Excellent choice of movie
- Great artwork chosen for the slipcover
- Beautiful finish on the slip, so luxurious and 'premium'
- As usual the slip is heftier than, say, Kimchi's have been

This one will be tough for Blufans to beat!

Did you order directly from FilmArena's site? If so, did you choose faster shipping or something?

Yes, I ordered directly combined with an earlier release (Passengers). I didn't choose anything special on the shipping - just standard PPL / DHL.

Given the GB is closed I assumed all was lost with this but when I saw it was still available directly decided to put an order in, was going to wait for the Blufans edition but this looks too good to pass on

Good to hear! I also ordered directly so hopefully I get a notification soon. Do they send a shipping email or do I just have to check my order status every now and then? Thanks!

They sent an email with a tracking link. Actually I can't fault their communication - you can click through directly to the PPL site to check on progress and once it switched to DHL I got a text with a tracking link for their site and an ETA.

Much appreciated, mate! I hope the set turns out as lovely as it looks.
