I think Ripley is awesome but for the inside artwork I was thinking a scene showing a hadley's hope landscape would have looked nice

I agree, not too fond about the inside art.

This release make me want to collect all the alien and predator steelbooks.

 

[vilhelm42]

It might not be what first springs to mind from that selection, but I like the idea of it as inside art.

 

[SteelReaper]

Its a Fox release.....matte.....border...embossed......people will buy....they'll keep producing cheap metal.....same old same old

 

[monkeyspinach]

I like the art on either side, but I think both sides should be all green or all blue instead of one colour for each side. I prefer the blue.

 

[RDE]

I'll hold off on this and wait and see if they decide to release all the alien films. Then ill be disappointed that i didnt get the predator steelbooks if they do

Don't forget UK had 3 DVD Steels and Netherlands had 4 I believe. I have the 3 UK ones and the fourth from NL.

imo there are just a few too many versions of the Alien franchise around although the cover on this looks a beaut, makes you wonder what they would do for Alien itself.

 

[mr blue]

hopefully if this is released they decide to change the front cover, a bit plain and boring for me

 

[Greyback]

I hope they change the artwork. The biggest problem is, that the green color on the back dont machtes to the blue front !

Front:

The stupid thing is that they color corrected that back image to give it a green tint? Why would they do that? Was it some left over artwork from the green color themed Alien Anthology set? This whole steelbook is kinda a mess IMHO. Would look better like this...

Spoiler

Its incomplete and I did it in about 5 min which is probably about 4 minutes more than was actually put into the design of this steelbook.

 

[Greyback]

Yes, now the back matches better to the front.

What you say to the artworks I posted ?

That artwork would look much better than the one they are actually making.

 

[Gamesgaryjp]

I dont really mind what the art looks like as long as it doesnt say die ruckkehr on the front

Nice dude, looks good

 

[tommyh84]

Personally I think the art work as it is is perfect, just please Please PLEASE no stupid embossing/debossing - just a plain GLOSSY finish

 

[Robbo72]

Lovely looking steel BUT going to stick to my anthology steel

 

[Sixth]

Hope they also release the other part and also the AVP
