Man, this looks really nice especially with the embossed title.

Oh dear printed logo? Is this a paramount release if it is carnt see it being printed, this blows the fs and target version out the water with the embossing etc

 

[apsmith21]

Which is interesting considering the last few paramount steelies have been pretty clean. Stickers as ratings logo (Super 8) and foldover cardboard on Super 8, Captain America, Thor...

I know it's an optical illusion,but the SB looks so tiny in that person's hand, LOL

Double checking the listing, in the Q&A section, the seller states the banner is on cardboard.

 

[DK06CTR]

Thats def a cardboard slip though not sure about logo.

I think that puts a whole new spin on "Wow, you really got some man hands there!"

i thought paramount steels were supposed to be all the same, except for maybe G1 and G2 sizes. Canadian should of been Embossed

Nice steelbook for sure. This movie was a shared release worldwide between Universal and Paramount, whereas, Captain America, Thor, Super 8 were all released by Paramount worldwide. I wonder if that has anything to do with the rating logos being printed on this release.

They are if they have the same artwork...

I'm just throwing this out there - it might be the US and Canada got a "lackluster G2" steelie because the cost of importing offset getting a special feature...unlike the ones in Europe.

That being said, imagine if the US & Canada got the same steelbook as everyone else (design / art / etc), minus the embossed / debossed stuff.

I think that would suck.

Like I said further up I think this is miles better than the target and fs version this will be the must have version.

 

[blu-steel]

The German version will be the nicest.

 

[apsmith21]

I've hedged my bets and got one of each.

Yeah, I've had to slow down Todd - the bad economy hurts us all.
