Your fricken kidding me.? What is it with StudioCanal steelbooks and these constant delays...no point in buying this is there, i'd buy the bluray standard release now, pointless waiting for this. Steelbook cancelled.

Bit extreme don't you think? It's only a couple of weeks more to wait if you want the exclusive Steelbook case. If the movie is all that matters to you, then you're on the wrong forum!!

Nope, if zavvi/studiocanal can,t sync releases to coincide with the general release, then i don't see the point in waiting, this is a new release not a catalogue title, where a delay i could accept.
 
Waiting longer suits me as it means we don't have to pay for it yet, haha. By the time this steelbook is released the normal blu-ray will have decreased in price as it will no longer be a new release. I am keeping my options open.

Decided to cancel after all - will wait for a price drop.

This neat design could really be a winner with a nice deboss on the front, or maybe with a big spot gloss area on the numbers (really cool typography!)
 
Ok, I've got some sort of confirmation on the finish on this one according to the actual artist who designed it, you can visit the Artists studio at this link - http://www.roguefour.co.uk/blog/2015/01/71-limited-edition-blu-ray-steelbook/

Its looking like this is MATT FINISH, the artist wanted a spot gloss, but was told its all or nothing and the film studio went the cheapo way and went with Matt. Theres no mention of any 'bossing being applied.

Not much of a surprise given The Imitation Games finish.
 
The regular release comes in a black Amaray case and the slipcover is spot glossed. Looks real nice.

I wonder if this will be matte white or just silver?

Yep, the Nick you see asking about the finish for this steel in the comment section on the designer's site is moi. :happy:

I also added the info to the OP of this thread a while ago, but it seems to have been removed since then for some reason... will re-add it now.

Haha classic, didn't realise it was you.
I thought I see in the op too.
 
Would look awesome with deboss and spotgloss on the numbers but as said, we aint getting that, cheap bastards!

To obscure your identity of course. :batman:
