A pretty rubbish release unfortunately :(
Was hoping they'd put more effort into it as it's their first time doing this for an MCU movie but it's essentially their Rewind Collection plastic box with stacked discs. Wouldn't recommend unless you're really into VHS-style packagings.

I was looking at this yesterday when I went to go buy the steelbook. It definitely felt flimsy, it would've been better if they made it an actual VHS case since those were a lot sturdier. Plus the muted colours also made it look unappealing, I took a picture in-store so you can see the contrast:

Personally prejudiced against VHS style packaging releases for one reason and one reason alone - they take up too much shelf space.
Fully agree with exploring all packaging options to keep physical media alive - including those LP sized Big Sleeve editions - but alas those also not for me.
