Dang, I was planning on getting this but £21.99 is very high imo. I'll have a closer look in store when it's released then decide if it's worth it.

Don't leave it too long. If it's anything like other HMV releases they'll all quickly be hoovered up by scalpers and GB hosts. With Ender's Game & Riddick people were walking out of HMV stores with literally armfuls of stock.

And yet anytime I go into the only Belfast store, they never stock them......

Yeah and now there are loads of both of those on eBay that aren't selling lol. Scalpers are buying less and less now as they are left with stock they are often forced to sell at less than cost.

It says 3D on track. Although could be a mistake but I think it will include it. Will pre order next Wednesday

 

[Blu-devil]

Will get this to go with the Polystone Caesar Bust I pre ordered thru Amazon.uk.

Great can't wait for this! I hope it's flat (no emboss) and glossy like rise. I don't think they can emboss it with the title that close to the top edge anyway.

 

[KingSteelie]

I love Hmv exclusives, I think it will be flat and glossy, but the artwork could be alot better

 

[meth head]

That front art work is doing nothing for me, sadly

 

[mr blue]

good to see hmv getting another fantastic exclusive (going by the trailers anyway) to go with days of future past and spiderman 2

 

[paddytom]

Watched this today and it is brilliant! Can't wait for the steelbook

 

[pdbluray]

Why is there so many cool films this year my wallet feels violated.

 

[Norwichlad]

X-Men, Spiderman2, Apes.. HMV finally getting decent movies instead of Riddick and Enders Game (I bought them just for the lovely steels)

 

[ChrisIW]

I wonder whether if I set up a HMV UK only GB would work? I'm guessing it could...£3 + item cost including Large Letter postage...So this could work at £25 all in for this release.

If there are any stock issues with the existing group buys further down the line that could be very useful mate

It's not about stock levels...But helping the UK guys who can't get in store for one reason or another at a low total cost...

I'm glad Fox are sticking with Steelbooks for their new releases at the moment. I refuse to buy any of their Futurepak releases.

You don't know what you're missing mate. The new futurepaks are very high quality

EXCELLENT FILM seen on day of release. Nice steelbook design, even better if its gloss.

 

[bevins2012]

I normally prefer full gloss and embossing or debossing on my steelbooks. This one however, would look fantastic with a high quality spot gloss like the Pain and Gain Steelbook.

That's as maybe, but they also have nasty hinges and the way the titles are placed because of the gap between the two pieces of metal looks pants too. I know this is pretty much the best they can do without infringing Steelbook patents but unfortunately they just don't look nice enough to warrant spending the extra cash over an amaray in my opinion.
