I literally just picked up the Blu-ray last week because I was fed up of waiting for a nice edition to be released... thankfully I had to return it for a refund because they somehow managed to put a DVD in the BR case by mistake, which I was bummed about at first, but now I realise it was a blessing in disguise.

Holy f******ck my heart just skipped a beat. One of my all time favs

I'm really hoping for a steel too (still shocked that it hasn't had one yet), but I like the film enough to double-dip, and this set looks way too nice to pass on!

Hell yeah!

This is one of my favourite films and have been hoping all this time for a steelbook but this looks pretty nice, is it like a digibook style? I don't know whether to wait or get this

Must have been fate

I don't care for a Steelbook when Arrow gives the movie the Boxset treatment. Their Boxsets are so beautiful. Videodrome, Long Good Friday and Hellraiser are some of my favorites from my whole collection!

I wish they would've released Kiju Yoshida and Female Prisoner Scorpion in such a Boxset. I don't get motivation to spend 50-60 pounds on "just" the Keep Cases

Hard to tell at the moment, but a digipak for the discs (like in some of their previous box set editions) would be my guess.

I'd honestly rather have a box set like this too, but I'd happily pick up a steelbook as well.

It looks like that they do it like for Hellraiser with single Digipacks for each Disc and a additional Book. Aw I'm super excited

Thanks @dan8885! Great news!

My thoughts as well. Would rather have this release than a steelbook, I mean look at that list of extras. Arrow are quality from top to bottom.

IKR? Can't wait to check out all three different commentaries, the 20 deleted/alt scenes, and RK's short film. ArrowVideo proving once again why they're one of the best distributors out there!

@Noodles
You beat me to it creating the listing
I was asleep after long night shift did not get to bed until 12pm today

I will get this but would have liked to see a steelbook version also
