Wish they used better art for all of these. I'm glad I never invested in any of the earlier ones as I'd need to buy this lol

I much prefer the simplicity of the Japanese digipack versions (not my pic, I only own the black Spirited Away one, not pictured here lol, but you get my point)

At last! I already opted for the amaray but £15.99 is a reasonable price for this considering the price for the standard DVD and Blu-ray versions.

Big fan of these designs.

I have the Collected Works of Miyazaki Blu-Ray set, but gladly double dip with these steelbooks!

I have about 5x of these, very expensive, but worth it!

Glad to see they're continuing this series of Ghibli steelbooks and sticking with the same designs. I actually almost picked up the standard amaray for Spirited Away just the other week, but I'm obviously glad I decided not to now. Keep 'em coming Studio Canal! :thumbs:

I'm actually glad that Zavvi releases follow their own unique style, but I can understand why some people don't like them. Those digipacks are gorgeous though, need to collect more of them when I'm done with everything else, but they sure are pricey.
 
I find it hilarious these have came back to continue the film line and they still match the others. Not something you see often

Just a shame the art work is poor

A silver background with a circular picture....for films as colourful as these...YAWN
 
Absolutely love this film so I'll be getting it

Still need to get princess mononoke though :(

Not my favourite of the Ghibli's but unreservedly BRILLIANT nonetheless and just as an aside it's a pity that the slipcovered Amarays are rarely available at "sensible" prices.

Any fan of these films going to Tokyo could consider taking time out to visit the Studio Ghibli museum:-

Just a quick question, will this be in Japanese, with English subs? Or the Americanised version?
The current UK Blu-ray release has

Audio: English DTS-HD MA 5.1, Japanese DTS-HD MA 5.1
Subtitles: English

It's pretty much certain that this steelbook release will contain exactly the same disk.

Awesome news! One of my all-time favourite animation films, and don't have this on Blu-ray yet :happy::joy:

A clean, if somewhat sterile, design that at least will look nice with the others in the set. I'm a huge Hayao Miyazaki fan so I'll probably be picking these up! (Spirited Away is easily my favorite animated film of all time)
 
Wish they'd re-release my neighbour totoro in steelbook missed it first time :(

I have the same problem...I could have had it for some £15....I hesitated too long - start to collect them or start not? I have decided to start after Totoro and Howl were OOP, OOS. Now I am missing both Totoro and Howl. :-/
