As disappointing as this is, let's be honest, we all knew it was coming.

Disney have gone for titleless designs on all their new releases whenever possible, especially if the same steelbook is being offered worldwide (excluding US and CA).

The Avengers, The Lone Ranger, Thor: The Dark World and Frozen have all suffered the same fate. Captain America: The Winter Soldier is following the same pattern, as will (I imagine) any further Disney releases. Don't be surprised in the future to see Malificent, Guardians of the Galaxy, Big Hero 6 and Avengers: Age of Ultron follow suit when the time comes.
 
I hope you have seen what happened with Thor 2 Zavvi?;) It is gone and you can't get it easily for under 30.

most of those buys are probably ebay scalpers buying in bulk.

Im really not a fan of titleless steels and titless spines.
 
I'm going to be buying this from Finland like the rest of the Disney-made MCU steelbooks. It's cheaper here, usually between 20-25€ and it has a lot more subtitle options. I'm actually not that disappointed with the title-less spine and front. Sure it sucks but I knew it was coming the day they announced this steelbook. It's Disney and they don't care about the feedback of their own paying customers.
 
I'm hoping for a nice future shop release with Debossed title like Thor 2(or embossed) & will join a group buy for that, I don't usually mind titleless steels but I hate the Marvels without titles, I suppose I want SOME kinda consistency with these and the phase 1's (even though the finish on the phase 2's has a lot to be desired)
 
I really hope they keep this artwork, the german release looks bad with no titles on the front or spine IMO
 
99.9% positive it will be the same, just waiting on Zavvi to confirm before cancelling and shooting them a seriously pee'd off email!

You think? I know it was released as The Winter Soldier in the US and the UK. I'm not sure about Germany because their steelbook says the return of the first Avenger so I am holding out hope they just got a generic spine.

Yeah I understand how you feel, why temp us with awesome artwork mockup just to take it away. I would rather them just leave it blank

German art has been updated, to titless, title on slip only so the steel will be the same.

I hope they do more of these, I got all the MCU films in steelbook, well all sadly besides Iron Man films as they only did a paramount release of IM/IM2 that I am aware of

Well, the UK had Thor: The Dark World, Germany had Thor: The Dark Kingdom. Same steelbook, different J-cards. AFAIK, the rest of the world (except the US and CA) got the same steelbook. The same goes for The Avengers/Assemble. Same steelbook worldwide. I can't name a single country that got an Avengers steelbook (and I do mean steelbook) with the title on it.

This will be the same. You know it, and I know it. It's the Disney way.
