Not that I've heard. Zavvi have been like this for all their "stock" recently. Feel like they haven't been paying their suppliers, and aren't getting releases on time. Bit of a shambles really.

Is there a good change this won't ship from Zavvi then?.... Worried now.

 

[paulboland]

Amazon UK has taken payment

My estimate delivery date though is not until July 24 - 25

Order has not yet been processed for dispatch but that might change by tomorrow

Does anyone know of the Italian version will have an English text booklet?

Yes the booklet in Italy release will be in English
Shared release 3000 worldwide (2000 UK) - (1000 Italy)

The only difference will be Italy release the Jcard will have text in Italian

If they've paid for the stock, and have it ship, you'll get it. They have been very unreliable latey though..

That's an understatement. Five 4k releases this year I never got and I'm not prepared to pay the silly money on ebay because Zavvi screwed up.

Nothing surprises me anymore with Zavvi. What does surprise me is ppl being naive and still trust them. From support to cheap packaging to not get then refund in a way they deserve.

 

[Beersandblurays]

Don't know if it means much but Zavvi payment taken this morning.

Just got a dispatch e-mail from Amazon. I paid for the most expensive shipping option, which really should be DHL. Instead they sent it via Australia Post Global (that makes perfect sense) and the expected delivery date is July 26.

I have received the despatch email from Zavvi (I was a tad worried).
I expect this to arrive at some point in the near future

Thought this was going to be a hard outer box similar to the recent Hard Target ‘collectors edition’, but it isn’t. Rather flimsy with the sort of lenticular sticker slapped on the front that you would have got free in a box of Frosties upon the films theatrical release (ok, maybe not quite that bad, but still pretty disappointing).

Also, why do they persist with the oddly micro sized poster?

 

[spookz]

Just received my copy from Amazon. It's just alright, but, the one thing that stands out is the crap lenticular cover. It has no depth whatsoever and stuck on my box as an afterthought by the looks of it .... not straight!!!

The Italian one has 10% off at the minute. Down to €40.

 

[samdavies]

Eugh. This does not bode well. Mine's downstairs waiting to be opened, can't say that I'm exactly looking forward to it now lol

I did see a post on Facebook earlier showing the spine with the massive ugly "4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray" thing that universal put on their amarays. I really hate that. Looks terrible on the shelf.

Currently Back in stock at Zavvi............

Just received my copy from Amazon. Whilst it's not the best lenticular I've seen, it's certainly not the worst. It's fine.

I'm more bothered that it's not a thick rigid slipbox that was suggested from the photo page. Also the enlarged UHD Blu-ray logos on the spine didn't need to be as big as the film title.

Unboxing

Not my video

 

[tono06]

It doesn’t look to bad

 

[JGCramp]

So it’s basically the same type (non-rigid) and design of slipbox as the first film, with the big gaudy logos at the top of the spine. I hated that so much that I sold my copy of the first film. I’ll probably be doing the same with this one, assuming it doesn’t arrive damaged.

I suspect that the Duel set will be the same, which will be a real bummer.
