I'm happy with how it looks, wish it were glossy but I'll live. The back and interior is sexy as expected. Thanks for the pics! Now I play the waiting game.
 
Wow that just looks A M A Z I N G guys, don't know when the last time I bought something from Japan and felt like this, this is one awesome looking steelbook AND it comes with a kick-a$$ looking slip that blends in ANYONE not noticed this, wow!!, finally they listened to me lol, nothing to complain about here this is da business PERIOD!, everything I could have wished for, one crazy looking steelbook that will look stunning next to its brothers: Lockout/Iron Sky etc :scat:
 
If a cover is going to have credits printed on it then this should be shown in the mock up image used to sell it. Many of us have bought this believing it would be clean artwork! It still looks great but I would have thought twice had I known about the credits.

heh.. well i for one could have thought of a better quality matte.. at least on the picture it looks like the matte on for example alien anthology.. which looks rather cheap... but maybe its just the pictures
 
It doesn't look good to me, the matte finish looks poor. I think the French Dredd Tin looks much better with the embossing and gloss finish.

@sigil, only problem being its a tin not a steelbook.

I'm happy we finally got a dredd steelbook. It doesn't have 3d, it isn't 3 disc, its not gloss......it still looks good to me. For those maoning about the price, this costs £25 shipped within Japan. The issue is the cost of postage from Japan to the rest of the world.

Personally I'm looking forward to this. I would like to hear about the PQ though. Its only 2d, so should be better than the UK release.
 
Really love the look of this one, quite expensive though!

Lena Headley is around in London in July, may have to buy it and get it signed!
 
Best slip from Japan in a long time !!! :thumbs:

Have to wait to have it in hand to judge the finish as those pictures are not good.
I hope the finish is better than what I'm seeing on my iPad with its Retina display. Looks pretty bad when you zoom in. :(

The resolution on those pictures is low so hopefully that's the issue here.

Katakana on the spine is superb...:scat:

True and if you liked the finish on Lockout then this will be the same bud ;)
Really can't wait for it to turn up at my door (well my parents door that is hehe) anytime now :scat:
 
How come the mock up didn't have the credits on the front? Surely this is a huge difference for the finished product? A lot of people will feel short changed with this I'm sure. No 3D either. Again, not worth the hefty price tag IMO. Japan's been falling short with their last few Steelbook outings.
