I'd never understand title-less spine...

This kind of cost cutting makes me want to kick some studio execs in the nuts

Specially when I would even pay a bit more just to get the title on the spine. They're just missing on money

Don't say things like that. Before you know it all steelbooks will receive a 10% mark up because (they'll claim) it costs money to put the title on the spine.

Best just to leave it as no spine=incompetent studio.

EDIT: nvm, spine title stickers to the rescue'! Can't wait!

 

[kryptonite]

title less spine is fine with me since the full slip will take care of it.

They won't miss your money since this will definitely sell out, title on the spine or not.

exactly my thinking on this release

 

[Sdoom]

This could have been release of the year - this is not bad, but I see a lot of wasted potential there. Fullslip artwork could have been only clean Mars landscape, no title on spine is a joke and lenti magnet with flip-flop is something I don't usually like, I doubt this one would be any better than others.

I really like the full slip. The artwork choice is great and I'm really looking forward to seeing what printing effects they employ.

I agree, FA always surprises me with the works they've done to their full slips. They can't really have much choice on the artwork chosen due to the studio's approval but they do make the best out of those arts by giving them embossing, spot gloss, all kinds of crazy things. And that's what made me respect FA and become their loyal customer

Great new title from Filmarena with Everest so exciting

Thanks a lot and waiting for Carel Group Buy

 

[jordanwalkert]

It's so strange that they have the titles in the mock up, but that they didn't make it onto the actual product itself. Sometimes certain artwork looks better with no words at all.. but this is one that I would have preferred it on.

I just saw on Film Arena's site some of the steelbooks have scratches on the back :-(

 

[IRON MAN]

Fixed it for you @luke98

Dear collectors,

Let us inform you that our quality inspection has discovered damage on almost half of the entire batch of THE MARTIAN SteelBooks.

On attached pictures you can see the damage on the back side of steelbooks. Damaged pieces will be claimed, however, it will be very hard to get new copies.

For tonight was scheduled the start of FAC #28 THE MARTIAN pre-orders for still collectible numbers. Once we find out the exact number of perfect copies, we will modify Beauty shot and run preorders.

We look forward to better news soon.
