I’m guessing they were going for a folded poster kind of look... but really it just looks like a slash

Yes, I get that . . . hopefully what looks like pencil marks will be on all three so this one won't look odd . . . don't mind the stickerbook look as the choice of image is stellar.

To paraphrase the good doctor:-
"Not a perfect steelbook... but a good one."
— Dr. Abraham Erskine

Anyway, UK artwork appears to be matte / possibly zero with a faithful retro appearance while the US artwork appears to be gloss with "better" colours but less of a retro look -

From the pictures i like the UK one more. Reminds me with the finish a little bit to "From Dusk Hill Dawn" UK steelbook.

My zavvi edition finally arrived today. A small comparison between the us and uk version:

The colours of the us version look a bit oversaturated (Buckys face is pretty yellow) and details get lost because of that. But this also means the line through caps face is less noticeable compared to the zavvi version where it continues straight through. The border has also a slightly different colour tone (again the us version is a bit more yellowish).
Same goes for the back, the red is more saturated which makes the shield in the middle pop out a bit more.

Both are great editions with their cons and pros

Hmm I actually prefer the colour saturation on the left. Just looks more colourful

 

[virkia]

Thanks for the side-by-side . . . admit to preferring the slightly more muted colours, more retro-looking Zavvi which keeps the old school vibe of previous FIRST AVENGER steelbooks (UK):-

Yeah me too.

 

[Kizza]

The US wins this round. The colours pop more.

Back in stock for red carpet members at zavvi along with number 2 and 3 and some other titles also

 

[St4rlord]

Surprise surprise, back in stock again. Nice to see others get a chance at these though at £25.19 with the code.

 

[Mr Y Fronts]

...and now this is sold out again, other 2 are still available, but for how long ?.

Still showing in stock for me

EDIT: Sold out again!

 

[Mr Y Fronts]

according to the zavvi email I got, these where only available to RC members - "EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE TO RED CARPET MEMBERS!", so in theory, along with the 'Last Chance' wording, these will never ever be available again....

I suspect there are going to be a lot of unhappy people when they see that this went back up again later......
