Honestly, who makes these art decisions?!

It looks like an Alien and a Terminator tried to have a baby!

What a POS

Sometimes I think this site complains for the sake of complaining. This steel could look far worse.

*cough*pop-art*cough*

Jesus Christ what the bloody hell is that??!!

Seriously, a quick google finds something far preferable like....

Hey, man...
Where is my waffle below the egg?!!

 

[nekromantik]

that looks horrible and lazy!

Doesn't matter to me, the steelbook goes live on a Monday and I'm always working on a Monday so no chance of getting that one. It'll be sold out in 10 minutes. That's 100% guaranteed.

 

[Hereticz]

What a disgrace! 40th Anniversary and they put ZERO effort into the artworks, shame on you whoever came up with this egg crap!

I think you’ll be ok getting in an order for this. It definately wont sell out that fast. It might ‘Zavvi sell out’ in a few hours after it goes live.

Given the art all the more reason to wait it out and see what Manta come up with

Doesn't matter what time it goes live on Monday I do a 15 hour shift and with travelling I'm away nearly 17 hours so as I said no chance of getting a copy because I'm not home to midnight and it'll be long gone......[/QUOTE]

Easy pass on this one

 

[paulboland]

This will sell out before or just after release date

I doubt this will sell out in a few hours after going live

I expect at least a few days at minimum and more likely a few weeks before it sells out

It will though depend on how many zavvi are allocated as this will be a shared print run in europe

My concept art.

I love this...only thing I'd change in my opinion, no disrespect, is the Steelbook logo for "Alien"...the one on the full slip or even the official one you can find on the poster would be perfect.

Hmmm, this or the "hero-series" slipcover art from a couple of years ago but on the current FilmArena Steelbook mockup...

Neither is more appealing than the other tbh, at least this is new and an interesting chrome take on the original egg poster.

 

[rschiks]

Guess Amazon FR will have the same steelbook...

That's like saying people praise for the sake of praising. It's subjective.
The steel could look far better.
