I'd be proud to have this in my collection if someone gave it to me.

I didnt order this one as i have a thing about not liking gold on steelbooks. Not sure why but i just dont like gold.

Original one trumps this imo. And im saying that without seeing the back on the new one.

 

[burtbird]

Original version looks a lot nicer but as I missed it at the time I'm happy with this. The only thing that's better about it IMO is the removal of the '25th Anniversary' text. Reminds me of a Toblerone

 

[nafosb]

Who framed Roger Rabbit in that ugly gold border? Yuck.

 

[A9X SJ]

Forgot I ordered this arrived today

 

[Wootball]

I love that gold colour - looking forward to mine arriving.

 

[Narg]

Got mine today. Happy as I don't have it on blu anyway. Red does suit it better though.

 

[BluSteel2012]

This was a pointless release. First and only reason was simply to cash in.

I hope they're stuck with a warehouse full of these.

 

[George Pearce]

Mine should be here today,if I don't like I'll bay it,just forgot I'd ordered it

 

[jayscott1969]

Turned up today looks a lot better in hand than I thought it would

 

[davhyl]

Haters gon' hate, but I really like it

 

[UpsetSmiley]

Thanks for the pics. It looks rather nice, the back art is still brilliant!

 

[Sigill]

The gold looks ok but it doesn't match with the red, it looks like they are from 2 different Steelbooks. The original is still the best looking one.

Well pleased with how the gold turned out.

I missed the first one and will be very happy to have this in the collection.

@BluSteel2012 - Not actualy pointless, or simply a cash in - it is actually a brand new remaster. I wrote about it before, the info came from The Hut's website.

I ordered this for a friend, he only has about 5 steelbooks but he loves this film and likes my red version so I told him about this and got him one.
I was comparing them and basically the image on the front and back is a slightly different colour which was not a bad thing and the blue around Roger on the back and his eyes are a really shiny metallic colour which I thought was quite cool.
The front looked okay too but the back and front just don't mix well but on their own I thought looked okay.
The best thing about this release tho and the only thing I would change on the red version is the inside art.
It's much smaller on the gold version and the whole of Roger is on the right side. It's not cut off like the red one. Jessica is slightly smaller but it's to fit the whole image in better.
So I thought it wasn't too bad and may even order one purely for the different style of back and better inside art but I prefer the original red version over all

 

[George Pearce]

I have it,I don't like it,I'll sell it

 

[lgans316]

Sell it by swapping the discs.

 

[Apinamakina]

Front being gold and back being red does look little weird. Would had been better if backside would be gold as well. Previous steelbook looks a lot better.

 

[navydavey]

Have the old steelbook, and now have this one too.

Yes the old is better but this one is still pretty nice, I like it

Its not a brand new remaster, on zavvis website the 25th anniversary blu Ray amaray says the exact same thing that you posted from the huts website which is also the same thing the gold edition says.

"On Blu-ray for the first time ever, this digitally remastered edition of Who Framed Roger Rabbit practically jumps off the screen with its brilliant picture, rich sound - and dangerous curves"
