how do you know there's no inside art?

Here you go:

No inside art, just black plastic

I actually quite like the look of that. I've never owned or held a jumbo before naughty, so for that reason alone I'm tempted to put in an order just to lose my jumbo virginity.

Will probably wait until the price drops though, which it no doubt will!

Thanks for the pictures Marty. By the way, if you don't mind me asking... how are you getting all these steels so early?

 

[Marty mcfly]

No problem for asking but i can't say anything about that

Sorry

That's fair enough buddy.

We all appreciate you sharing what matters the most... pictures!

Despite the fact there is no rear artwork, I still think this is a gorgeously understated Steelbook. I am so glade that they went with the silver embossing. This will be one of my faves. I can well believe that this one looks even better in person.
Also, by the time I have it slimmed down (have 8 spare frames) and add some decent inside art, this will look the dogs bollocks.

 

[DJHilalo]

I like the look of it but I still much prefer the French one which is a normal/slim size steelbook AND with the awesome silver banner, UK copied them.

I have managed to place an order at HMV with the discount but I'm really thinking of cancelling it now, decisions.

 

[SpeedMasterLee]

I don't know what it is but this case looks really sophisticated and clean. I have already per ordered this steel and will be placing it between my Batman Begins + Dark Knight steels that are on its way from Japan as we speak.

Pics of the Jumbo

spine from the french and you got a perfect English TDK/BB steel

Question is tho, is this cheap embossing or old school deep/hard like embossing. Cause the French one actually had hard embossing like old school. (which is so much better then embossing they use 90% of the time now)

The French one is much sexier and cooler than this and I have that exact display you have in mind

I can promise you that' an original steelbook, not a custom or fake.

I don't think Wreck was saying that this is a fake, just asking if the embosing is hard or if it has a lot of flex like the newer releases (Captain America, cowboys & Aliens UK etc)

Ho sorry, my mistake. (because of my english level)

Yes the embossing is hard

That is awesome! I'm gonna hold out for a trilogy steel and also a separate TDKR to complete my collection. I just can't justify getting this when it includes only 2 of the 3 films, even though I really like the front art.

more good news

Trust me on this, your English is much better than most of our French

:yeahthat: +1

 

[Jason Bourne]

I agree with ^^^

Thats the biggest reason Im not getting this. With the third coming and if this was a trilogy steel released later despite the no back and inside art I would have gotten it as the cover is really nice.

 

[xanderville]

I have this ordered but now I think my mind has changed. I can see some very nice Trilogy Steels in the future

 

[sanjeebdeb]

Another Blu ray steelbook to add to mu collection.

 

[Frasr]

I'm on the edge if I should cancel or not... already sold my amarays.
I think I might wait and see if any trilogy steels are released with TDKR

Thats the idea. Just got my order today.
