Release date: November 24, 2017 (First Batch) - April 30, 2018 (Second Batch) - March 4, 2019 (Re-release) Purchase link: Zavvi (pre-orders for re-release go live January 19 around 6PM UK time) Price: £15.99
Most unfortunate that ours in the U.K. are not all matching - even in the less dramatic grey colouring - to make for a satisfactory matching set of three
I cancelled my pre-orders for #2 and #3 long before they released and as it stands I wouldn't touch them except on a vastly reduced price.
In truth, not wild about the colouring, the slightly too zoomed in artwork on #2 and the non-matching spines.
Only question to be answered now is "U.K. BLADE steelbook front artwork framed like the Japan steelbook or like the Canada steelbook?"

JP BLADE vs. Canada BLADE
JP - nice touch with the variegated titles front and spine (even though it doesn't match #2 and #3) and the well proportioned back image to match size of front image.
Much better framing of front image with right arm complete, or as near as dammit (continuing over the top opening edge).
Inside artwork on the wrong side under the disc . . . Oops.
JAPAN
CANADA w/ front image positioned wrong as too far to the right . . . cool back image framing and better inside art:-
Clearly the set to beat for these three films regarding their steelbooks. As for content I hear that the German discs are better.

Their new releases are definately shite matte finishes but I think there are a small amount out there with gloss (im telling myself lol)
Or like a varnish which Looks better than the above pics of that horrible matte. The French batman, U.K. Dark knight Rises had that kind of gloss varnish (not proper gloss but better than matte, can't remember the name for it)

I was thinking zero finsh but I thought that was more smooth and matte like. The gloss varnish is more stickier on dark night rises. (I see gloss and gloss varnish as two different things - only way I can tell them apart in my head lol) like the 4 you mentioned Is just normal gloss. If that makes sense.
I call Bronson and Amelie etc zero finsh and they don't have any gloss on
