You guys think more will come back in stock... or is this another Drive slipcover deal?
Usually Metal Boxes or Steelbooks aren't sold out after a week but all stores close to me are out. :S
I have a couple for a trade that I want to exchange for mint copies, but none are available.

I have to admin that the quality of the VIVA cases are c**p. Feels too fragile and the case bends a lot even by simply opening it to view the discs. Studios should ditch this and stick with Steelbooks.

Ill share an opinion on the flip side. The artwork is amazing on almost all viva's and quality of the case is pretty decent IMO. I dont see any flexing happening like you say. I hope studio's keep cranking these out... the artwork blows a lot of steel books and their mediocre artwork out of the water.

Way too much hate on these Viva's in the name of uniformity for people collections and exaggeration of their quality being poor when its not. If there is NO competition for Scanavo we the consumer will regret it deeply. Monopolies only ever served the corporation and its interests well.

Acutally I think the viva's are better build quality, the only thing I don't like about them is the spines, it cuts up the inner artwork too much and the outer spine just doesn't look right.

Steelbook86, I agree with every word you said. I love the Viva cases and anxiously look forward to each new release.

i want it..hate living in the us

I think the quality control on vivas isnt very good, every single viva i have has at least 1 ding and maybe a scratch. Including this that i got from medhi.

 

[PS3_Kiwi]

^ I have 12 Vivas, and I have no quality issues with any of them.

 

[DK06CTR]

I have 5 and all have marks

Ill add to that... owned 7 viva's and not a single one had issues.

Mine are all in perfect condition as well. Never had a dented one

 

[Marina Blue]

This release is beautiful and heavy. One of my all time favorites!

I must have close to a dozen Viva Metal Cases and all have been mint and beautiful.

 

[DK06CTR]

Well I must be just **** out of luck then!! Because I ain't got a mint one as already said

 

[gocolts]

I am in canada and try to examine each one I buy. They often have small scratches or small dents (especially on the embossed outer edge) But when you find a mint one, they are beautiful!

 

[jvules]

any steels or viva you have to inspect each one as futureshop employees treat them as a dirty diaper.

 

[chanfm]

I like Vivas. I think that their artwork is often awesome. Keep them coming!

 

[slemsman]

Poor film but could still be tempted!

Poor film but could still be tempted!

This is a a very under rated film it was a flop at the cinema but in years to come a cult classic!

Give it another watch
