Mine arrived today and it's OK.
A matte steelbook with just the teeny tiny use of selective spot gloss or shiny metallic paint on the microphone and stand.
No mention on the j-card of "One film 2 cuts" just "BONUS FEATURES: STORIES BEHIND THE MAKING OF THE BLUES BROTHERS / TRANSPOSING THE MUSIC / REMEMBERING JOHN"

EDIT: scratch part of the above as looking at the small print I can see the following:-
"Feature Run Time: Theatrical run time 2 hrs 13 mins approx., Extended run time 2 hrs 28 mins approx. . . . "

6/10

if you don't post pics it's useless that you write that the Steelbook is just arrived

They might not be able to post pics, at least we are being provided some info. I'm sure someone will post pics when they can! Patience is a virtue!

TBH there is nothing much to see that can't be seen in the mock-up.
There is no 'bossing and only a touch of shine on the mic and stand which may not even show up in the pic . . .
It's not a terrible steelbook and neither is it a particularly good one.
I get it that you are probably anxiously waiting for your Italian copy and that you are frustrated because you will have to wait another few days before you have it in hand but whatever your feelings there's no need to get ratty when helpful information is posted with good intentions.
Don't shoot the messenger !

Front and back artwork should have been reversed.

Bought this yesterday morning, dispatch email came through at 09:12 this morning and it arrived less than two hours later!! Not only that, but all four of the steelbooks I bought yesterday did the same!
