Does anyone think that Zavvi or Amazon UK will get these?

Not known yet but I'd be surprised if these seven steels are not released everywhere including the U.K. if only to prepare us for the upcoming remakes. . . starting with Tom Cruise in THE MUMMY (2017) followed by BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (2019) with others dates TBC.
The best known seven films are of course included in this mini steelbook collection, with cover artwork by the comic-book artist Alex Ross, but with 31 films in the Universal Monsters Collection with some 27 of those already released on Blu-ray Amaray here in the U.K. in various Legacy collections, these seven are but a sprinkling

I would've thought the English titles for these movies are kind of iconic enough not to need to be translated. I wonder if the German titles are on the steelbooks, or just on the cards?

I probably end up getting all of these but i agree, i'd prefer the titles to be in english as well. But who knows, they might be? Or even without titles, although judging by previous german releases, i doubt that.

Zavvi have these all now as an exclusive (in the U.K.) according to their notification sent to me an hour ago.

UNIVERSAL MONSTERS
EXCLUSIVE STEELBOOK COLLECTION
Check out these brand new limited edition Universal Monsters Steelbooks, including Dracula, The Mummy, Creature from the Black Lagoon and more!
Each Steelbook is limited to just 1000 copies and features artwork by Alex Ross!

Listed as a Zavvi exclusive limited to 1,000 but my personal feeling is that they will be available elsewhere here in the U.K. like THE ENTITY for example (also listed as a Zavvi exclusive and also limited to 1,000 at but now showing at Amazon as a pre-order with a September 2017 release date).
