Certainly more attractive than the previous UK steelbook . . . the interesting spot-gloss effects in the main artwork can be appreciated in these two pics courtesy mubis:-

That's a new one! In the past I know there was always a LOT of concern of reselling a high visibility steelbook like this at a major retailer. Curious what changed (if anything).

I clicked on it after your post as well and it showed unavailable at that time.

Actually it still says out of stock for me.

I purchased a copy once it was available again after Apollon's text.

UK/Ireland you cannot sell in high street music/video stores imported Blu-ray/DVD due to the BBFC/IFCO age ratings not on the releases unless it's a exempt release

Years ago back in the 90's I had IFCO tell me to remove DVD stock from sale in Tower Records due not having a Irish certification issued for the releases I imported

Second hand stores get away with it though

It's different though with on-line retailers in regards to selling imported films

I don't know the rules in USA if that applies in regards to imported DVD/Blu-ray been sold in USA high street shops not having USA certification on a release been sold
