Mine came with a slight dent in the front Oh well. First Zavvi damage for me. It's a pretty minor dent (I did not even notice at first). Probably not worth the hassle of contacting them over from what Ive heard. Unfortunately now that I've noticed it I can not Un-notice it.

Get really, really drunk.

I really dislike Cap'n Murica, give me Captain Britain any day (biased).
Have to get this for my Avengers collection though.

Finally got here. Almost perfect. I only see one very tiny paint chip.

They forgot to put Blu-Ray logo for some reason...

So! My replacement arrived today. Aaand it's going back. My first had a shattered insert, and this one has 3 paint issues on the front and a spine slash.

It's nice but the inside artwork is indeed FAR too dark...

FYI 10% off code MMX10 works with this

 

[milchmann33]

It seems to be only 5% off =/ But better than nothing

Yeah it was 5% for me too but with my rewardz points I bagged this for £9.76

 

[thecardman23]

Placed an order for this one. I already own the original Play.com version, but its too cheap to resist at 9.99 GBP!

Is this worth picking up considering the quality compared to the HMV one and the £9.99 price on it ? I'm very indecisive atm

The HMV one is considered one of the greats. It's simplistic, classy and glossy. It's a classic. Mant opened copies now sell for under 30 quid too on ebay so it's really worth paying the extra few coins and getting a great steel instead of an alright one

Ya know, if I can get my hands on one of those bad boys, I'll definitely pick it up. I guess that's one of the main reasons why I don't wanna pick up this one - knowing there's a better one out there. This one is decent, but I'm going for GREAT.
Okay I made up my mind, clear pass for me now.
Thanks @matthewtheunicorn

One that I hoped from the very beginning would be glossy, I've glossed my own version and think it came out pretty well.

And a comparison with the HMV version, I apologise for the quality and lighting. I do think that this would have been good from the get go if it arrived glossy.

Wow that looks great. How did you make it glossy? I am interested in doing the same.

Thanks always appreciate feedback and knowing it's not just me thinking that I did it well haha!

I literally bought a £6.50 can of gloss off of amazon and sprayed it over the steelbook. Left it for 24 hours to dry, and now going to leave it probably another 24 (because it smells) but it is dry.
