btw I dig the cover on the novel, wish THAT was the steelbook cover or better yet the full slip cover for it

Anyhow just paid for shipping, opted for Cover A (front)...

 

[ash333]

I wish they had shrinkwrapped the SteelBook before putting it into the box. It does not fit snuggly enough to keep off nicks and dings

 

[DJHilalo]

Wait a sec I'm def leaning more towards Cover B (back) now, I think it's a better choice as I dislike multiple titles on the front and besides it will look nice next to the Korean one

 

[VRob98]

Two variants (front or back cover in the boxed-slip):

You sure about that mate? Looks to me like JSDVD might have just switched the case around in the second shot (opened box) to show how it could be displayed differently. I'm not seeing an option on the site to order anything other than the one version.

OOS again btw.

In box, no shrinkwrap means scratch because it's full high glossy.

disappointed

Yes Rob, at checkout 'for P&P' you will be given the option to choose one of the two variants

Oh ok, thanks. Mine is still 'preparing' so no checkout option for me yet.

Does anyone still get 'shipping charging' emails from JSDVD btw? Seems like they've stopped sending them now.

Mines are in packaging and inspection, hopefully it gets processed soon. I get shipping emails sometimes

I normally do but I decided to log into my account and check earlier on today that's when I noticed the shipping charges on there, I guess they were still uploading pictures/info etc and possibly thereafter send customers shipping charge emails (after all it's due to be out today)

I'm sorry but I think that box is Tacky.....

I know what you mean bud, I'm kinda disappointed a little but having missed out on the Korean one I'm happy to settle with this until I source a copy, besides it's not that bad!!

Cancelled thought from the mock up pic the box would be nice bound like the Hobbit EE but it looks low quality flimsy looking.

Yikes! I agree.

That is one fugly, cheap looking box, for sure. That's unfortunate, as the steel and book look quite nice.

I'm glad I only ordered the regular version of this, as I was previously on the fence.

My first question has now been answered. Steelbook not sealed inside and can be scratched. Same happened with my Snowwhite boxset.

Overall this is a disappointing release. None of the slips including the Korean one impresses me. So happy with the German release.

There was no way it was going to be the quality of The Hobbit my friend....

I have a Twining's Tea Bag Box that looks like this.....
