What a beauty but another of those MARMITE steelbooks methinks LOL !
Personally speaking love that pale cream so much more than white for this steelbook
Elegant, classy with almost a classic poster feel of one of those sexy French films from the 1950's or 60's.
Bright white background with B&W Emma and Ryan . . . I don't think so . . . not ideal (IMO) . . . and anyway cream always goes great with blue.

Could still be an off-white steelbook though judging by the spine colour.

Also love the title treatment and sad this is not the U.K. edition

The LP cover is off-white so there's still hope for the white lovers . . .

Judging by what I can see on the tiny slither adjacent to the spine I'm thinking maybe one of these two will be the back art:-
II
V

@Drum18 Is this going to be the same artwork for the US?

I think so, but maybe more white.

I think so, but maybe more white.

I'm ok with that. I don't like how yellow the CA one appears to be, but that US one is creamy not canary.

Love the color of this steelbook... very daring, and refreshing compared to the usual shots used for the movie.

Sorry for not replying sooner Marc... I didn't receive a notification for some reason, so I've literally only just found out about your GB. Obviously your offer to help is very much appreciated, but someone else kindly offered to get me a copy from the US. Thanks all the same though bud!

Tagging the others again just in case they also weren't alerted the first time... @monanza @Lordpercy

I want to love it, I tried to love it but, alas, I can't stand it.

Awesome, thanks so much for the offer but the group buy closes the day before I get paid, otherwise I would have been all over it

 

[monanza]

Sorry, I neglected to respond sooner. Having pre-ordered the US edition, I am now debating whether to get the Canadian edition for the color (would not be a debate if not for the total cost; no complaint though, it is what it is). I'll probably still get it since I said I would.

Also, the OP link for the GB is broken (the link is truncated for some mysterious reason).

That is soooo weird... how come they show a "tan" colored version and it end up pure white????

Hmm yeah, it's pretty silly if you ask me... as is evident in this thread, the tan/cream colour put a lot of people off from wanting this, so the studio will have lost out on quite a few pre-orders I imagine, and all just because they couldn't get the mock-up right! Still, I'm glad it turned out looking good in the end... I can see a lot wanting this now that it's been confirmed white.

Suppose the same why they can show a white version and it end up any other colour lol
