+1. Too much black areas on the Steelbook = easy to spot imperfections

Btw, is this a Steelbook or VIVA?

StEeLbOoK.....I hope...

PS look at the spine.

Don't think we've had a UK Viva yet. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

I will still be getting the 3D FS version because the UK one doesn't have 3D included which is a little disappointing. Be happy with both.

 

[blu-steel]

Hope this is a steelbook. If so it is looking like my prayers have been answered. The Green Hornet IMO is the perfect steelbook. This one could surpass it.

 

[bapeixoto]

Amazing !!

alarm bells! as nice as the viva metal cases are, i dont collect them (embossing is nice and the artwork has been beautiful, but i dont like how cheap they feel and i dont like the spines)
if this isnt a real steelbook, im out. i sold all my metalpacks and ironpacks, and viva cases. steelbook only for me.

 

[o0 Deuce 0o]

it will be a steelbook, people just looking at the mock up picture and crapping themselves over nothing.

Only thing they could of changed was the spine, plain black with the Avengers title would of being enough.

 

[thedefector]

If you enlarge the images posted above the wording around the design clearly states Steelbook so shouldnt need to worry about that. Unfortunately they only put in garbage text for the bonus material box on the j-card. Hope I'm wrong but I think we in the UK will probably get shafted as per usual with Disney and their policy on issuing extras. Likely they'll do an exclusive deal with Asda.com again like they did with War Horse for a bonus disc.

More good news

Posted on the other blu-ray forum. Make of it what you will as user hasn't stated where they've got these from. If it IS official I'm happy with it seeing as I only paid under £13 for it:

Interesting. This might mean that Avengers Assemble will be on the J-card and not on the steelbook. There might be no need to import a steelbook overseas if you want it to say The Avengers

 

[Noodles]

I'd be more than happy if that's the official artwork. The spine alone would be pretty unique, as it's the first I've seen without an actual title on it. Plus like Dino pointed out... it means no "Avengers Assemble" on the actual steelbook itself! Very excited for this one.

simply beautiful if it is the final artwork

 

[SYKES]

If this is the final artwork, it is definitely close to if not as good as the FS version. So glad I ordered 2 copies!

 

[Konflick]

No matter what i decided to cancel my FS exclusive and ordered few copies from hmv

I keep my Futureshop order in. The Vivabox will be embossed.

I'm in agreement with u it's great news if this happens but I still love the FS viva avengers. I'll have both please

 

[DK06CTR]
