No really decent steelbook for WAR . . . this one's front looking marginally better than the similar big head style from FA . . . although don't like the look of that white patch above Caesar's head on the ML.

On the other hand FA wins the back art war by a mile . . . and the inside art war too - not having the most important part of the art covered by the discs helps of course!

Best-looking slip of them all = ^

Awesome photos!!! Cant wait to get my hands on my ML Fullslip!!!

Im actually quite warming to the rear of MLs steel! And i quite like the larger title on the spine
 
The reworked photo on the backside of that lenti slip seems a bit rushed:

Looks like the apes in the foreground (below the red line) were cut out from a different image and placed into this particular image. At least the silhouettes pretty much suggest it. Whoever designed this didn't spend too much time blending in the pictures. For a clearer view see the full resolution picture @virkia posted.
 
Had a surprise turn up at my doorstep today. Pics aren't great due to the lighting, but here goes:

Great steel in hand, and I'm happy to report it hasn't been massaged with sandpaper like some recent releases. ;)

Just went for the full slip this time around. I was a little underwhelmed with the treatment on the last couple of Manta full slips, but this one is on point. A nice gritty texture to the white background, red foil lettering, and embossed spot glossed bits:

Nice little edition all-round. Looking forward to watching this for the first time. :thumbs:

I'm not blown away by the pics of full slip I'll be honest, I think the double lenti potentially looks the best however the steelbook looks great. Looking forward to the direct comparison shots of this and the FAC release
 
I got my shipping notice this morning (received order yesterday), so things seem to be running a bit slowly. :LOL:

Between an injured back and his honeymoon, it sounds like John has his hands full!
I got my double lenti yesterday and the shipping notice just today. Maybe because of the injured back John is doing things backwards. That's mean, I know. Sorry to John. I just could not resist dispensing some lame humor.;)
