Why do folks like this one over the French or even the US editions. IMO the over abundance of purple hue really throws me off, I would prefer the French edition over this one. My favorite though is the US edition as it's similar to the US Logan edition which I really like. Just curious why folks like this one so much?

So I guess the only way to get better packaging is to order several steels using combined shipping so they don't fit in an envelope and forced to find a box instead.

Yea it should be better, safer like this, but you never know, it could be f*cked up even in bulk, look at amz.it for example, they sends more steels in big box, but no protection inside whatsoever

I think mostly the combination of purple color with full glossy varnish make it interesting for me, but I like artwork as well, it´s just classic, simple, not so busy like US one for example, although I must say after check the in hand photos it looks pretty awesome in full gloss as well

I'm down for the UK hub groupbuy for this. Looking forward to it.

Prefer this over the French one. I have the Novamedia one coming anyway but simply like the John Wick 2 logo on that steel

Amazon.de used to do this, throw them all in a box, and then they got slammed all around. Many in the order would get dings, dents, other issues.

A bit of a risk nowadays...

Got a Steelbook from Amazon.co.uk recently in A1 cardboard mailer with zero protection. Thankfully it wasn't damaged.

I am so pumped up for this release as it has the potential to blow all the JW2 releases easily.

I got 2 steels in an A2 mailer from them last week As you said, it's a miracle they survived the trip overseas.

Both UK and USA hub group buys are now sold out.

We can re-open only if there is enough interest for those that didn't have a chance to join.

You can tag me or PM me direct if you would like help.

I have really ordered a lot from Amazon.de. If it's in a bigger box they always use additional paper or those plastic airbag things (I don't know what they are called ) to fill up the room. Personally I haven't experienced otherwise.

The steelbook itself looks great. But since it is the exact same artwork on the Nova Lenti which I intend to buy, I chose to skip this because like you, I am quite happy with the Best Buy edition. I like noticeable differences when I double dip.
