DON'T FALL FOR IT !

Zavvi keeps re-releasing old steelbook titles that they have released previously with the same content, but just a different cover so don't be fooled your getting more for your money, its just clever marketing.

This is just my opinion, someone who has been collecting steelbooks from around the world for many years and have bought a lot of steelbooks from Zavvi.

I could see there being extra content on this. There's a trailer online for the 30th anniversary re-release of Aliens. The steelbook may be Zavvi exclusive, but there's a separate bluray coming too. And with the big deal they're making of the 30th Anniversary Reunion Panel at ComicCon this weekend, including the original cast along with James Cameron, I wouldn't be surprised if they filmed that panel & it was included on the disc.

Spoiler: Trailer

Ordered. Was hoping the 10% off code with link would work, but it didn't. Oh well, I just can't resist! Still hoping that a matching set of steels for the other three movies will be released.

Alien films franchise sells you might get your wish but might be just another Alien (1979) Steelbook
You have next year Alien: Covenant arriving in the cinemas you can be sure Fox will re-release the back catalogue Alien Films to tie in with the new film

I have several blu-ray releases, but never bought them in sb format (for which I'm sorry). I preordered this one and I also see that the 3rd and 4th are still available. Unfortunately not the 1st

Ordered but was hoping for the code to work... Will decide later whether to keep or to cancel and chance a price drop

The 30th Anniversary Aliens Blu-ray
Same content as previous Blu-ray
Note includes a new extra
New interview with Cameron discussing “the design and inspiration of the film

It's possible this might be like some previous recent Fox releases new extra redeemed digitally on Fox online
Hopefully it will be in the Blu-ray itself but I suspect it will be a digitally redeemed code like previous Terminator and Braveheart anniversary releases

I'm exactly in the same situation as you. I have an ugly amaray set of the 4 movies and I'd like to "upgrade" them to steelbook. But not being able to get the 1st one I'm not sure what to do...what are you going to do?

I'm almost certain I'll get this one and hope for the re-release of the first one. It wouldn't be the first series of films that I started with the 2nd or 3rd one in sb format

 

[icharlie17]

And you got the 3rd and 4 too? Those aren't re-released right?

So far I got none of them This preorder is the first, and since money is not a luxury atm, I'll be postponing the purchase of the 3rd and 4th for now

As far as I know, the 3rd and 4th were not re-released, just still in stock from their first release.

Cancel your order, create a new account with the same personal data but a different e-mail address and you will automatically get a discount of 10% for your 'first' order!

You get 25-30% off if you're a zavvi employee or maybe you pay double, I don't know :-D

The new extra is a New interview with Cameron discussing “the design and inspiration of the film
It's not known yet 100% if this will be on the Blu-ray Disc or will be a code insert to redeem digitally on Fox online

Recent Fox new extras like Terminator was the Digital redeem Code instead of been on the Disc

New extra always welcome but I would prefer if on the Disc as the Fox online redeem code can be only used 10 times and streaming video online and is not the same video quality that you would get if it was on a Blu-ray Disc
