Hoping for a good price, and an early 2013 release... don't think my bank account can deal with any more releases this year!

Wreck, I ask for 2 things on my wish list.

1. Can they produce numbered copies?

2. Can they use a slip-cover?

Play, if you are reading this, you could send the entire population of Steelbook Collectors into a frenzy if you did the above. This could so easily be the next Holy Grail.

Ahh dammit, that'll teach me for not re-reading the OP before posting again. And dammit again for a November release!

When I saw the thumb I though then noticed it was a play ex and thought

Come on, get the pre-oreders open! This looks fantastic. If they manage to emboss / deboss the whole thinkg like the Hunger Games D12.FS this will be perfect.

 

[SaberTooth]

releasing so soon? dammit >_<

 

[plainview]

This will be a triple dip for me

 

[cyberef]

When I thought play couldn't make me more poor .. they find a way!

I must have it!

[Jericho]

This looks pretty amazing. As I already own the movie its a debat if I want to double dip, but I think the answer is yes.

 

[blurayoliver]

Think I might sell my amaray for this, great looking steel

 

[karl01]

what do they mean by PREMIUM finish is it going to glossy or the same old matt dull finish

Looks awesome!

 

[Starling]

Every forum site around is ablaze with this. My 5 disc boxset stays also, anyone would be mad to part with theirs!

 

[Ashcroft]

They should used that raised material effect that they used for the text on The Wrestler (CA) for the blood on the back. With the right shade of red it would look incredible.

 

[hitster]

Absolutely freaking SWEET!!! One of my fav films and such a gorgeous steelbook. Play is going to bankrupt me , first with all the exclusives in October and now looks like November is going to be a big month as well.

Where is the link for the pre-order?

Can't find it in play.com
