art looks ok, the front looks a bit odd with that different shade of black around Arnie's head

Day 1 preorder for me, then i can get rid of my german edition.

It does look weird.. and photoshopped, like they couldnt get the same shade of black...

Reminds me of the ugly back art for Fantasia, not as bad though

 

[Greyback]

I hope the remove the TX in the sunbglass of the T-800. Its needless, because the Tx is the backartwork.

Further I hope they emboss the title and use a fiull metallic matt finish like ion the german steelbook.

This looks great and the price needs to drop £5. Hopefully we get a pre-order date soon.

Very similar to the Terminator 1 Zavvi Steelbook, I could see 2 and 4 being similar if released.

Now the question is do I go for this, or wait for the Film Arena version?

 

[IRON MAN]

@cooey I'll wait and see what FA and HDZeta come up with first.

 

[cooey]

I think you might be right @Apollon

 

[Jb162009]

I reckon still preorder tgis when it goes live @cooey as it can always be cancelled if FilmArena do a release. Better to have one secured in case they dont

You could always put in an order then cancel if the other one is better

 

[javiermendoza]

Any news when this goes live?
I kinda want a copy

The HDzeta version has taken a back seat to this Zavvi edition it seems. The HDzeta thread isn't even in the first couple of pages anymore (last time I checked). Zavvi has become the low-rent, Best Buy version of steelbook retailers these days with uninspired designs and seemingly random titles - why does anyone still patronize them?

Because I for one will not pay €60 for Terminator 3. €20 is plenty enough for that film, imo .

can zavvi get away with calling titles like this which are available through other outlets 'exclusive'?

there is nothing exclusive about it,they are simply sharing print runs with europe...and since zavvi are a company who sells their products internationally, how can these items be considered exclusive..

itsfalse advertising.

in my view this is a 12.99 steel ,tops.. asking 20 is embarrassing

It's exclusivly sold in the UK via Zavvi. No other English retailer will be stocking it.

so did this one ever go live? I feel like it never did and I need this one to finish off the set

 

[nicblue]

I think it might be best to wait for Film Arena. I'd love to get the HDzeta one, but as some said here we know HDzeta will be expensive. Money for me is tight as it's ever been right now...(where are you tax refund). It'll have to be one amazing release from HDzeta to warrant the price tag man.

Everyone has different budgets, not everyone will want to pay $50+ for the HD zeta version. It may be more luxurious with extras but a lot of people are happy to just buy the steelbook at a more reasonable price.

For me to be a collector means exactly that. We want the rarest most exotic and
Beautiful examples to be found. Buying a second rate artefact seems fairly
Pointless to me. Less is more.
PS: Lucky i don't collect exotic women. Then I would be in trouble!?!?
