No idea - it's not on the actual sb.

Lionsgate may still address the issue and at the very least could include a spine with Part 2.

I wish Lionsgate would tell *someone* what they are going to do...

So is this issue worldwide?
Did any copies anywhere get a printed spine?

It depends what you mean.

Only the UK Lionsgate release is missing the title on the spine, so all others have one. They weren't released by Lionsgate though, so still won't match the first 2 UK releases.

Cant believe they screwed this one up.

I suppose a titled spine is better than no spine, but I'm wondering if they'll do 'The Hunger Games' at the same height as 'Mockingjay Part 2' like they did with The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (all on one line) rather than having the title on 2 lines (which admittedly the Part 1 Amaray does).

I'm going to hope a bonus spine is included with Part 2 and if not, well, I'll leave it blank I think. Honestly I'm hoping Lionsgate do a Part 1 & 2 steelbook. It'll take up less space (unless it's a jumbo which would be pointless).

Compared to the Czech release this one looks like pure filth. Rancid.

Lol, that's a bit extreme?
But yeah, it's bad. Best thing about it is the inside art. But even then, they positioned Lawrences face right under the spindle!

£19.99 would go a long way towards the 'superior in every way' Czech one too.

Jeez, what do you call the really unpleasant things?

The pics posted above make it look considerably worse than it is in-hand, I really like the inside art for this one.

Took the pics below a while ago but never got round to posting them as they're not the best quality; they at least don't have dust or scratches or whatever it is on them though.
As you can see, the fire on the inside art almost shines when hit by the light.

Having said that the Czech release is definitely the one to get IMO. (Personally, I'm going to have both).

So the double spindle one above (covering Lawrences face) is a custom job?
(would explain why it's a bit grotty looking!)

Correct, this is a one disk release as standard.

Correct, this is a one disk release as standard.

Not sure why you would want 3 hubs. It's not a 3D film. BD/DVD/OST??

 

[BluSteel2012]

Target have a 3 disc exclusive of this I think.

Much like most politicians this steel is spineless and unworthy.
