We***8217;re certainly planning to continue doing all future seasons of The Walking Dead in steelbook with matching artwork ***8211; it looks likely season 4 will be out in September 2014 as it follows the same pattern as Game of Thrones (i.e. the new season hits DVD and Blu-Ray just before the new season starts).

We***8217;ve been told that the steelbooks will feature in the US Walking Dead magazine, so likely to be quite a bit of international interest for these.

The Entertainment Store is pleased to announce our latest exclusive steelbook releases: Seasons 1, 2 and 3 of The Walking Dead, AMC***8217;s Emmy Award winning TV series.

Each season features world exclusive artwork by Mark Simpson AKA Jock, who is responsible for some of best regarded comics and art of this generation, having worked on 2000AD, The Losers and Hellblazer amongst others as well as producing artwork for many major film studios, including the artwork for HDN Steelbook of the Year 2012 winner The Raid.

The Walking Dead: Season 1 (Entertainment Store Exclusive Blu-Ray Steelbook):

- 2 Blu-Rays discs
- Debossed Title Treatment
- G2 Standard Steelbook case
- Limited to 4,000 copies worldwide
- Finish TBC

The Walking Dead: Season 2 (Entertainment Store Exclusive Blu-Ray Steelbook):

- 3 Blu-Rays discs

The Walking Dead: Season 3 (Entertainment Store Exclusive Blu-Ray Steelbook):

Is this a new release or another warehouse find? Cant complain because this was the only one I needed to buy of the set. At least I was able to grab it for way under $100 this way.

Fox UK put a load up on eBay a couple of weeks back along with a couple of other Entertainment Store exclusives. I'm guessing the liquidators have rifled through a warehouse.
 
Well mine has arrived today. Either someone has painstakingly removed the entertainment store exclusive stickers from each or this is a new print. Either way it's the same ugly jumbo that has divided opinion since its original release.

Personally at this stage I'm just glad to complete my set at a reasonable price. Seriously hoping for a season 7 Negan cover by Jock to be announced soon!

Entertainment store exclusive stickers would not been on the steelbooks with the distributor they are added when the retailer gets the stock
Zavvi would not add these stickers as they are not from entertainment store but from the distributor.

When this was previously entertainment store exclusive the retailer entertainment would have put the stickers on the steelbooks when they got the stock.

Steelbook releases are from film studio distributor not another retailer
Retailer just gets the stock from the distributor same a HMV would with their exclusive releases they then add the stickers to mark as HMV exclusive when they arrive at the retailer warehouse

Hi, thanks for your interest.

The donor Steelbook is from Game Of Thrones season 1 but any of the seasons will do they all store 5 discs +.

I bought the donor in CEX then traded it back in using the Walking Dead Jumbo only lost £5.

Thanks for your reply, I will be trying that.
Did you print the j card or adjust the original one ?

I used the original J - card .

I separated my Season 2 card and used it as a template but to be honest making the J - card was the most hassle.

Would like to mention that the Jumbo spine was tight to get off there was a lot of glue.

I used the Game of Thrones spine as a template to mark out and a good pair of scissors just cut right though it.

Got some awesome custom printed spines (my design) from a redditors dwbassuk. I can't remember if you're here too, but if you are, thank you:
I used your design as the starting point of my custom job. However, I found that the white and red where too bright compared to the other seasons when printed onto vinyl. I spent a long time trying to match the colours and in the end replaced the background with a scan from the original spine.
