Did anyone else's email say this was a steelbook?

Gorgeous looking set!

That email was also about other releases not just this release
In the email it also lists Scream 2/Bram Stokers Dracula/Cabin in the Woods 4K SteelBooks that why it mentions 4K Steelbook in the email header

No, it was Zavvi's mistake. The subject line of the email:

They did something similar with Silent Running, they called it "Silent Running Man".

I've ordered direct from Eureka. Their 'Vampyr' release was excellent and this'll sit nicely alongside it

lovely looking set. i already own the original steelbook release of this film from Eureka!, which also had a booklet, so no desire for me to duplicate with this as well just for the 4K. but good for those who missed it first time.

since that booklet(in the steelbook) is only 43 pages, and i'm thinking this new book is perfect bound, plus it's a rigid slip case and perfect home to the steelbook, i've got to double-dip

 

[Space Cadet]

Masterpiece. Own the steel. Maybe get this one too.

 

[Lollard2002]

Never owned a copy so easy buy.

gah, why'd you have to do that?

 

[Fisheds]

Is this the first silent film on 4k? I'm beyond excited for this.

Will the steelbook fit in the slip? I almost don't even want to know...
