The re-release is a fine line. I get why it makes business sense, particularly for "popular" titles. But re-re-re-releasing stuff in general will turn off collectors in the long run. And they are who really drive these sales. It's good that these will be new artwork. And I don't believe either Captain America or Thor were exceptionally rare. Sure, certain versions may be harder to come by, but the basic design was available worldwide. But I wouldn't want to see this happen too much.

Links don't work

They did work at first but Zavvi have took the pages down for some reason.

This will have a limited print run and i am sure the original release will keep it's value and this one will rise as well

i would say the last looks good thats what i would love

based on wreck saying in the thor thread, that thor would use pre agreed artwork (previously seen on amamray releases) i took that principal to mock up a captain america using that as a guideline.

Oh ****! I really do hope so

When steelbooks titles are rereleased albeit differently ie artwork discs etc especially when it's a rare title that you already own it does make me sigh and think about giving up collecting them and selling the lot :-/

Out of the two this is the one that i wanted the most - i have been contemplating breaking my £50 rule for a copy of Captain America 3D recently.

But when i look beyond my own personal needs, i see that what zavvi are doing is speeding up the death of the rare steelbook.

see, whenever a steelbook becomes so popular & hard to find that it commands a crazy high price on the secondary collector's market, be sure that sooner or later a retailer like zavvi will cash in and flood the market with comparatively cheap re-releases or re-prints of that title. killing the rarity in one fell swoop.

so no "rare" steelbook is truly safe if it has a hint of popularity guys - if you collect in the hope that one day u can make a little something because its supposed to be a "rare collector's item" like that classic car u've been eying up, think gain sucker cuz that **** will get printed again and again and again and again :movie:

 

[Soundeath]

DAMN!!!!!!!! I like this artcover to!

 

[PoisonClan]

@bobafettish66 amazing I already own the 3D steel of this but would double dip for that happily

 

[Wreck]

Which is why slipcovers on steels became so popular in the last year....
