I suppose it looks OK in a zero finish - rather than a streaky matte - although the front would've looked better had it been glossed . . . back art is uninspired to say the least with shades of other sci-fi steelbooks including PASSENGERS . . .

Maybe one day they'll use/adapt the iconic design of the vinyl soundtrack LP cover that came out at the time of the film's release to make a steelbook worthy of this epic odyssey in space:-

Totally a bad idea to use glue to stick J-card on steelbook

sorry to see that :pain:, mate, hope you can get it sorted asap :thumbs:. reminds me of the glue spots on the Hereditary steel i got from zavvi - the glue was so tough, when i managed to get it off, the force was so great it opened the steel. got away with it, though. don't know why they don't use those easily pee-lable, circular stick-downs you get on other steels. :grumpy:

This is my copy, just a cardboard with no protection at all when it arrived.
(P.S. From Amazon UK to HK)

Only some tears on plastic wrap and no seriously visible damage on the second photo.
(I think this Steelbook used up all my luck for this month):confused:
