The box set looks nice but I really dont see value for money in it.
nail on head - so glad I didnt keep my Captain Marvel one.
Whilst I like having it, and it looks like a nice addition to my MCU collection, its WAY overpriced and even if they bought the price down to something more reasonable, I'd be hard pressed to buy these over the fantastic Asian import choices we end up with(including all retailers here - Weet, Kimchi, Manta, Blufans, Nova and anyone else am forgetting)
They are the same size, my Avengers looks a tad bigger but I think that is down to it being packaged better than CM so it puffs out a little bit more.
Overall happy with the steelbook, goes nicely with the first two Avenger Steels (original releases) but not Infinity War which still looks like the odd one out.
Don’t know if I will buy another one of these CE boxes, they are a bit Meh for the price and if they are just going to light them up each time then that is a bit boring too. To be honest the light up action works well on CM not so much on Endgame.
The orange of EG just doesnt add anything where as Captain Marvel does have a slight enchancement with the light up effect - it looks a bit better, but EG just doesnt, at all. I'd say it looks a little worse maybe if not simply 'no improvement'.
Most people are slating these collector boxes, same way most people slated the zavvi marvel lenticular stuff. Now those are more expensive than most of the premium editions. Yes it could be better or yes it should be bit cheaper and hopefully zavvi will learn and improve from feedback. Atleast lets appreciate that they are trying to do something unique
Zavvi get points for effort but thats it really
Overpriced by a LOT(some premiums of better quality and more extras can be up to 1/3 cheaper, for example) but I do like they tried something that we've seen little to none of elsewhere(only a few light up releases to my knowledge).
Sadly Zavvi have no reason to improve this weak product that has huge potential if done right, as they are still selling out.
Even after two weak releases with a LOT of negative feedback(not just on here) and the 3rd editio, Spiderman FFH, is still sold out...why would they improve when they know they can shift this crap so easy?
My card expired so payment got declined LOL
Now i'm wondering if i should still get the collectors edition or just order another 4k steelbook.
if money isnt an issue(or there isnt anothe title you could buy with the price differance) and you love the movie enough - go for the CE - I love having it on my shelf as an addition to the collection, but its far from the highlight of my MCU set.
I was happy with the steelbook only for Captain Marvel but have always been a sucker for Avengers movies....so weigh up your thoughts towards it.
OR flip a coin?
