Oooh... I hope this'll look good next to Alice Im Wunderland

 

[yy0925]

Great! Will match the first one from Zavvi perfectly

If only the whriting/text was in English

 

[bigfub]

Sure there'll be a Zavvi version along eventually but I do like it

1. The artwork is not final.
2. This is Disney. So it will most likely be WWA without title.
3. The text you are seeing is on a J-card, which is removable.
4. It is a german release. What are you expecting?

The previous Alice Im Wunderland german release was not WWA and it had german text all over it.



That scan doesn't do it justice however. The steelbook has a very nice matte finish. On the entire steelbook is a spot glossing of white tea cups, clocks, hearts, etc from the movie that make it well worth the German text splattering the back.

Yeah, back in the old days Disney did that.

And when did "the old days" stopped?

I liked how you backed up your claims with facts...

 

[Flloydo]

I hope this at least features Alice somehere, even on the back will do me

The zavvi one is really nice but no Alice is slightly annoying considering the back is a bit lame with just a swirl of hats

 

[jimmyv]

they can't be serious. same up close image of his face. same bow tie. almost the same dam hat too. (ridiculous considering he is the mad hatter).

sorry but there's a point when the ol' "make 'em match" philosophy is taken too far. this has reached that point.

Thanks mate. Credit to @virkia though

 

[eLviS1987]

Final artwork revealed - OP updated.

 

[Vaako]

love the artwork but unfortunately the movie is a real stinker so no purchase for me

 

[Stuc]

As a promo image it's great, as a steelbook - pass. It'd make a good back cover but as a front with no title? Who's coming up with this %#*^

And why when the film is about ALICE is the mad hatter the focus of every single artwork out there. Sure it's depp, but he's not the main character. Heck i'd rather have Bonham Carters queen of hearts on it this time, at least it'd be different.

 

[tono06]

horrible art, i preferred the other one a million times...and i guess it will b the same for zavvi.....at that price i dont think so.....

 

[tha_lunatic]

I like the new artwork

 

[kingkarl1967]

Another title less spine ...... kiss my arse ....... cancelled !
When will they ever learn ?
