Well the back is underwhelming to say the least...

Tasteless back

 

[Last Lizard]

They should have put Max Headroom on the back.

My main concern with this is if the overall art is as pale and lacking in a nice crushed black and pink that pops with a matte finish. I've always liked the Driver art but it really needs vibrant deep tones/gloss to work on a steel imo.

 

[NoDingsNoScratches]

The backs a bummer, but not a deal breaker. And info on interior art? Or can we be assured that for this price, we don't get any?

Whos knows? We got inside artwork in the recent Paramount wave at a similar price point...

Thinking to sell my HMV and buy this for cheap price hahaha -.+

Got shipping confirmation today. I ordered 3 copies along with RAID and Bestbuy shipped all of them seperately. I wonder what is going on with folks in that company. Hopefully it comes in ontime b4 release incase there are any issues with damage.

 

[Aw 83]

I prefer Nova media's steelbook much better than this in terms of quality and artwork and regarding the HMV edition that to is a nice steel edition to have for Drive I would not sell it for this release as that stands out more than this in all formats but everyone has their own opinion...

 

[Sigill]

This isn't actually too bad, it's just that there are 2 better looking versions with the Mondo and Nova media editions.

this is the correct sequence
1.HMV
2.BEST BUY
3.MONDO
4.NOVA
5.AMAZON FR
6.GERMAN

At this rate steelbook collecting is going to split into 2 different branches... Drive steels, and everything else.

At this rate steelbook collecting is going to split into 3 different branches... Drive steels, Iron Man steels, and everything else.

Fixed that for you.

 

[Driver]

Haha touché!

Is that a definite release date of November 23rd which is a Sunday? You would think it would be released on a Tuesday which is the majority of new release day of steelbooks & blu rays

Sunday is typically the day that the sales circular will switch over to the next week (when last week's new releases sale price ends), so it's not totally unusual.

They've already begun shipping most peoples items, and considering they are catalog releases, I think they don't need to stick to a "Tuesday" for a release day.

Also remember that many Best Buys are stocked by an outside company in their blu-ray section, so you might want to call ahead on Sunday to make sure they are on the shelf before you make the trip to your local store.
