UK will be getting a special edition with newly illustrated rigid slipcase, book, artcards, poster to go with the slipcase. Just taking us a little extra time to pull it together!

Hello, will it be an UK exclusive, only? I'm interested (specially for the booklet and if the design is really pretty) but importing from the UK gets a little expensive due to the currency difference. Is it gonna be similar to the other Universal UCEs (Jaws, Duel, Twister, etc) or is it something new?

Love the movie, and love the art.

That sounds awesome! So glad you can create these editions with the new distributor you are working for

Ps: this 4th title which already has a Steelbook release, is hopefully NOSFERATU. That Eggers masterpiece neeeeeds to get such an edition!

I would say that is not a terrible guess

It will be I am afraid. It will be similar to the other Universal UCEs with new artwork on the slipcase commisionned for this release plus artcards, poster etc. The booklet is going to be great - official production notes from 1995 with the crew coming off Jurassic Park and going into Casper - it is a really fascinating snapshot of special effects movie-making at that time. We are only making 2000 of these worldwide so might be worth an investment

Just to let you guys know that Casper UK special edition steelbook with the extra bling will be going to pre-order this Friday, we don't have the new artwork approved yet so the slip is holding art for now but I didn't want to wait any longer to get it out there. Will update the packshot when we have the new art approved

Will be at all UK online stores, or will it be an exclusive? If so which retailer? Thanks

That's sad.. since it seems most retailers limit importing it to Spain, so I don't know how I'll be able to get this one. And being so limited, time runs out..

 

[PonyoBellanote]

Well, seems Amazon UK allows me now to pre-order, so I did. Hope I don't have any troubles.

Streaky matte for the US

Matte SteelBook , but nice touch on the windows , the metallic shine makes them look lit up.
Still glad I went with the Collector’s Edition though, since that one has a glossy finish.

Man I’m so glad the U.K. is glossy. That’s great art. It just needs that extra kick

Nasty finish on usa steel

 

[sbarker]

PIty it's matte, the old bluray steel was super glossy.
