I would have gone for this had the artwork being a better match for the Zavvi edition of the first film. I don't know what they were thinking going with this artwork.
 
Bit late to the party and missed the code but ordered anyway.

As far as I can see front artwork not taken from original film poster and is original/unique to this steelbook and the closest I can find is this minimalist movie poster designed by MARVEL COMICS CANVAS ARTWORK . . . and a few assorted others with two quite retro looking:-




Just checked again and found this image listed as "PsBattle Ultron from Avengers 2:-












Original poster choices not really great for the front cover artwork apart from maybe this first one which continues the design / theme seen on *previous AVENGERS steels* . . . with maybe one of the other two on the back:-

Im getting a little annoyed with the Re-releases having spine titles and the first releases not, its making this "hobby" too expensive and im this close to just sticking with the first releases.

. . . and lenticular magnets:thumbs:;)

RE: COST - Thank God I can only afford U.K. steelbooks so don't have to worry about those expensive import steels mentioned regularly in every U.K. steelbook thread :p

Im the same in regards to imports, been sticking to uk releases with a few exceptions and im very happy the dc animated steels are getting released over here.

I like the look of this release but its just annoying having to double dip all the time for the sake of a spine title :(
 
I love it when I see someone mentioning the lenti magnet as a selling point. They were horrendous previously

You get better lentis with standard uk ammrays

The amount of people on the first wave mentioning throwing them away or chucking them on a fridge instead of with the package says it all really.

I put my Thor one inside the steel it was that bad, and I love displaying lentis

The only lenti's i have on the zavvi wave are: Cap 1, 2, Iron man 1,2,3 the thors and avengers were awful. I usualy make my own lenti's these days from the amarays like BvS

Yeah I remember one of the caps being decent. Possibly winter soldier

I did see you did that in the other thread. Very cool.

I used to get ammray lentis to do the same but I never got any magnet sheets so I just kept them in a stack lol

We all know what very limited means with zavvi. Just look at alot of their steels for sale are supposed to be very limited. I bet the print run on this is much more than 4000.

or just wait for the 4k re-release wave. we all know they will come at some point :p
