just checked my mail here in California, nothing yet.

just checked my mail here in California, nothing yet.

.... nothing here in British Columbia, haven't received my copy either. HMV shipping times are so whack. I have had a steel arrive in 4 days from release all the way to a month long wait. Dunno why the gross in-discrepancy in shipping times. Amazon UK is always bang on consistent with shipping times falling between 5-10 business days, ALWAYS, and there shipping is much cheaper.

 

[Orange Splice]

Same here. No go on my copy either. This is the first time I have ever ordered something from HMV, got the "it's on its way" e-mail, and waited this long without it arriving. Very strange.

Gotmine today. Nice and mint. Now just gotta swap-out the guts for a 3 disc holder. (thanks to the Ghost Rider 2)

 

[Sirjump]

Got mine as well, came in a carboard box as usual. Glad to see it was without damage =)

 

[SaberTooth]

Wow I am truly sorry that came in such horrible condition but i couldn't stop laughing at the truly obliterated state it came in!

Yeah i looked at the first pic and thought "hey, hey is that kinda not straight?" then i clicked the next pics & and was i like LOL

But as soon as the humor ends, u realize how shocking that is . Good thing there are like a Petabillion of them printed, so you should'nt have any problems getting a replacement Ricker

I got mine today with a faulty spine, not the slash but part missing and printed wrongly. I'm not actually sure what has happened but it looks wrong. Don't know if I should send it back.

I don't understand what it is you think you're missing, but the spine looks fine by me. It's the same spine I have.

It just looks wrong I've seen pictures on here and not all of them look like that if you look closely at the picture you can see the black banner on one side of the pictures is missing. It looks worse when you put it next to other steelbooks its off centre.

Looks normal to me, the spine is just not centered properly. It's just how some are (I swear this is happening more and more lately, both of My Iron Man's have it and so does my copy of Shutter Island).

Still didnt get mine, need to wait longer.

Me neither......been two weeks now. Will phone customer services tomorrow.....

After seeing all the posts about all the damaged steelbooks and the slashed spines, im really happy (and lucky) i got mine in good condition. Im loving the embossed A and i think it completes the set off nicely.

Now my steelbooks have finally ASSEMBLED!!

honestly if you dont have an HMV within 30min of you i would say just live with it. its hardly noticeable even up close in those pics.
