ROTPOTA and Conan are certainly 2 of the prettiest steelbooks of recent times, but with this one being a stickerbook and the Futureshop Exclusive version only being a slip cover, it looks like HMV is the way to go with this title.

By looking at the photo, it doesn't seem like a stickerbook to me.
The front side blu banner looks like printed on, so does the back. Is this being
confirmed 100% stickerbook?

Just like "Valkyrie" which is a stickerbook, although the blue banner is printed.

I bet the UK one won't have inside artwork but this one does - why oh why?

Wait, they printed art on the inside of this steelbook but used a sticker for the cover? Makes no sense to me in why they did this?

cancelled my french order, not putting up with a stickerbook. inside art was nice though, will stick with HMV order on its own now.

I was going to get this but not now.

I was thinking that it might be

1) a sticker
2) a piece of paper.

Not to say that they couldn't have printed the art inside, but it sounds doubtful given that they did a sticker for the outside.

Remember folks, with a sticker version of the steel, it is indeed more limited than a printed version of the steelbook, and sometimes is an option on a lesser known title that they don't expect to sell well in a particular country.

Part of these things, I would imagine, are based on how well the movie did in the theatre(s).

love the inside artwork...2 discs....tempting....love the front artwork...too bad sticker. I like steelbook to be heavy...not light like a feather with the HMV Double's Devil's version. Since HMV version of Drive is cheap, I'm expect no artwork inside and light as a feather as well.

gonna wait until 100% confirm there is no artwork or not for the HMV version. If not, then here I come Frenchie LOL...I hope it's limited to 100 hahaha.

Exactly my words! I know the HMV one fits the tone of the movie more but I always liked this French design more. We'll see how the UK one will turn out but I might go for a first stickerbook with Drive, hence getting the Frenchie

no way, regardless of artwork stickerbook = NO PERIOD!

If you prefer the heavy variety , there is this other edition which I had mistakenly pre-ordered and it is 5 euros more. I will wait for more info before cancelling pre-order as I agree 100% with Andy's very well said points.

P.S. Maybe this is the REAL steelbook edition.

 

[filmwizard]

a real shame as both front and back covers look great

nope thats the same stickerbook, just that there is a CD included with this one thats why its more.

 

[biscuitnoir]

What a bummer And I can't wrap my mind around the UK one, that pink title is just too much for me. What a shame

 

[DK06CTR]

really i think the uk one looks quite retro.

 

[RobertJoseph17]

really i think the uk one looks quite retro.

And it totally matches the movie. Especially that beginning intro.

 

[DK06CTR]

[Vaako]
