Mine arrived with a lovely dent on the cover. I think this is the worst looking Zavvi steelbook yet, so I don't feel to bad for parting with it. I mean, I love the retro artwork, but it's just way too dark.

Also, it almost look like a pirated copy with that Disney logo sitting by itself on top of the border. Doesn't blend in at all imo.
 
Mine arrived yesterday and I'm really conflicted about it. When I saw the photos people posted, I thought it looked fine. But seeing it in the flesh, I'm not so sure. I don't mind the matte finish, but it looks as though the colours on the back cover pop out more than the front which I find really distracting.

I don't know. I don't hate it at least... but I don't love it either.
 
Changed it for now, this one is in and out of stock. I can't see it lasting too much longer.

Sometimes I wonder...sold out for so long, then back in stock. But still? :wtf:
Great for thoose who still wants it, but why was it sold out for so long?

All Disney steels should have gloss finishes, if they are charging a premium price for a premium label then at least give it a premium paint job. This could have looked much better with a high sheen finish, a combination here of poor art on a black background and a dead flat dull finish just makes this steel feel cheap in hand.

Perhaps a lot of people that received these decided to return them, it's a pretty boring steel in hand.
 
I was definitely hoping for a high-gloss finish too. I think the neon colors would just stick out a bit more. Still a nice looking steel though regardless.
 
Thanks for the pics Mariuzz. That case looks great. I'm still on the fence about importing one. It would cost me over $25 and I already have the movie in the 5 disc 3D combo edition from Disney.

Decisions, decisions... :dunno:
