Is this not the second steebook release for this title
This is actually the second release for THREE of these titles, of which I own all, but a beautiful and cohesive series trumps any problem I would have with double-dipping.
The original Lon Chaney film WAS in black and white. It came out in the 20s. I know there was a color remake in the 40s sometime, but they were both Universal releases.I'm not overly keen on the style of these new ones if I'm honest.
That said, I only own the original Creature from the Black Lagoon steelbook as I didn't like the designs of Dracula or The Mummy either and own the coffin boxset anyway. I do love the movies though, especially Dracula, Frankenstein and The Wolf Man so as these do match, if the UK gets them then I'll pick them up. Hopefully there'll be one for The Phantom of the Opera too, but I wonder if it'll have a black and white cover even though the film was in colour.

So it's confirmed the german editions won't have german text? Or are those the swedish covers? Rather uncommon for german releases, unless universal is using a global art for this series.
