Well that's a pretty huge bummer, but I guess it's best to take the time and put together the absolute best release possible.


I just cancelled this (have to avoid doubles coz low on cash) ... think they top FAC ? I do like Arrow releases tho, just got Candyman.

I think this will easily top the FAC edition. It looks very unique and it's going to be loaded with features and a hardcover book. Can't wait for this and Arrow's Waterworld release! :D

FAC cover is actually quite bad. It's just a close-up of Mia's face with some spot-gloss. Then you get the WWA SteelBook and some postcards. Nothing really special. I actually preferred the artwork on the Korean slipbox, so I just kept that edition.

This Arrow one is gonna be the winner, though! I'd love to see them tackle some del Toro's Hellboy films next.

This is absolutely stunning. I only briefly got a chance with it before heading out to work but its easily one of the best Arrow releases to date.
 
arrived today and i must say I'm pretty disappointed.. the artwork is very nice, but the booklike cover looks kinda cheap, i hope they dont continue with this style... + amazon shipped this in a bubblewrap envelope, which wasnt enough to get this to me safely... and im very sure my copy wont be the only one..

Ordered my copy from Zavvi, also sent in a envelope and never survived the journey.
Now have to deal with the worst customer service, i have ever encountered.
Why they pack heavy items like this, is beyond me. I think there will be a few more damaged items.

Love it, great treatment for this movie from Arrow as ever (Robocop can't come soon enough this year!!) - the hardback book is quality extra especially considering the price. Mine was Amazon as well but came boxed so survived intact, not sure why some have had to suffer the dreaded bubbleope packaging
