so its official that is only 1 disc because otherwise I'm thinking of canceling mine and going with german 3 disc
If I were you I would cancel the HMV order and get the German steelbook from Amazon. Amazon is win win. Better packaging and better customer service + bonus disc etc.

from what I read the assemble part is just because I guess there is a show in the UK that is called Avengers so to avoid any confusion they put the 2 names but it won't have 2 names on the disc or cover at least that is what I read couple months ago..

I've gone with the Spanish one at amazon.es. It's 2 disc (2D + Bonus, no 3D crap), plus I've already got an order for Jurassic Park, BTTF, and Apollo 13 for around the same time anyway, so I just added it to that for the same flat shipping. The Spanish one is out sooner than the UK one too.

I'm just wondering why it has 1 star out of 5 after 118 reviews?
 
It shares reviews with all versions of the film, 3D, 2D, and steel. One or more of them got put up for pre-order at a really really low price, which lots of people ordered. And then Amazon cancelled them all and corrected the price. So then lots of self-entitled dipshits decided that even though it was a clear mis-price and that they knew it would never be honoured, that this was a good reason to 1 star it. Even though the ratings are for the film, not Amazon. Perfectly reasonable, if you have the social skills of 14 year old under house arrest.

Amazon should really wipe any reviwes that aren't about the film, I know .com and .co.uk would.
 
Just received an email from Disney, it included the HMV exclusive steelbook and other exclusive editions from sainsburys with exclusive sleeve and bonus features and Asda with the Avengers season 1 graphic novel!

What? I don't understand this. It sounds like you received a Steelbook with your e-mail!!!??? :wtf:

Can you print what the e-mail actually states please?
 
Sounds like the email contained information about the steelbook and the extras. At least that is how I take it.
 
Yes your post is confusing. Did the email come with details about exclusive editions from stores?

The post isn't confusing, it's quite simple! If you buy from HMV you get an exclusive steelbook, if you buy from sainsburys you get amaray with a exclusive slip and 90 mins of unseen bonus content and if you buy from Asda then you get an amaray and a graphic novel free! I didn't mention about the amaray's before, because I said in the previous post that the steelbook is a HMV exclusive, which means anyone else in the UK selling The Avengers can only sell the amaray packaging!
 
Cancelled my HMV steelie...... gonna stick with the FS Viva box

I was close to doing the same thing. I love the Viva's but am gonna double dip and get the HMV one too. I think I'm the only person who actually likes the spine on the uk one.
 
Personally I prefer art and text on the spine. In this case, they might have gone a little too far with the multiple floating heads. But I like to see it first hand before passing further judgment especially with the overlapping motif.
 
I'm a fan of the spine too... very unique! Plus, it's better than having 'Avengers Assemble' on there.
