Its fine when the artwork is good. This artwork sucks. Re-release on the white *** version i would prefer as ive always wanted it but wont pay the crazy prices people want gor them as they arent worth it.
So what you're really saying is 'this artwork sucks because it's not the artwork I wanted'? This is a win win for everyone. New artwork for those who already own previous releases and a nice Steelbook edition for those who don't already own a Steelbook of it

Yepp im saying that, and this artwork sucks, because it sucks. I have the LE UK Bluray and this artwork was on one of the 5 post ards that came free, i hated it then and hate it now
Like the look of that, Im sure it will be the same on Zavvi in time. Good price too so will end up getting it from Amazon. Im also happy that the other 2 in the trilogy dont really match so I wont feel as if I need to double dip.
Maybe a white version for Zavvi and Amazon has this one
Ok, one of these two needs to man up and say Exclusive!
First off, welcome to the forum and thanks for pointing out the lower price
My advice would be to stick to Zavvi or Amazon (or HMV) for the time being if you are contemplating ordering steels from the UK. Reason being that they have implemented decent packaging to ensure your items arrive in best condition possible (in theory)
For the sake of saving £2 - £3 per steelbook I would say the gamble you take by using Wow HD is too high. You are relying on the product travelling half way round the world in a jiffy bag and turning up mint. If you buy this entire Batman wave you take 5 x the risk. And the customer service is non existent when it goes wrong too. You might like to gamble but personally I couldn't risk it for the sake of just £15 - £20
Just my thoughts on it. Not everyone has had a bad experience with them but hopefully it's useful advise
Thanks for the welcome and definitely sounds like good advice and even better now that the amazon price has dropped - I've placed my pre-order with them
I'm not a fan. If zavvi switches to this I'm definitely canceling
Agreed. If zavvi is the same as amazon i will be canceling my pre-order. Would be nice to know.
So glad the art is different on this, I can understand where the people wanting a white version are coming from but in my opinion you need to look at the bigger picture. If everythings subject to being re released then nothings special is it? Id love iron man fs but i cant afford it so im not going to get one, theres no way id want it to be re released just so I could - its the same with the white batmans, if you dont want to pay the money for them then im afraid you cant have them and thats the way it should be. If everything gets rereleased then we're not really COLLECTING are we, we're just buying things...
Theres a difference in collecting and profiteering. Those like me that want the Whites re-released are people that enjoy them for themselves and don't care for value, and those who don't want them re-released usually do so for profit (not all but most in my experience).
I agree they should make things more limited like 1,000 print runs and less re-printing in mass quantity's.
I have the *** steels and I don't want them re released, and I'm not profiteering.
