That did make me laugh! I was on the fence with this one, can't stand the film, but the package is great!Finally got the message I've been waiting for ages, Elektra has been shipped. Wohoo!. Such a beautiful package for such a awful film and I need to have it lol
.
I don't normally buy steels of films that I don't like, but starting to think I wish I made an exception for this!
Nevermind[emoji19]
I don't normally do this, but FilmArena has enchanted me with their packages
. It has happened twice, first with Dracula Untold and now with Elektra 
I got the double figure of yours "12" [emoji23]
Actually scratch that it was 22 haha [emoji23] yeah it's gorgeous, stunning package. My pics several pages back [emoji41]12 is pretty darn amazing..what a beauty isn't it ?!
lol I'll go look, haha now at 22 ? is that inflation ?!
Note: saw your pic, hiding the number hen ? is that really 22
and FA
I received this along with Exodus, Commando and Whiplash. Thank you so much @carllenc. The packaging took a right old battering all dented and holes. Unfortunately probably due to the mishandling of the packaging my copy of Elektra whilst not damaged the disc has popped out of its holder and you can hear it moving 
Does anyone know what I could do?
It is so annoying as this was the only one I wanted to keep sealed.

@rebelrocks Yes, unfortunately discs can dislodge in shipping, especially if they are in transit a long time (happens with amarays too when I used to buy them from Amazon).
9 times out of 10, the BD protective coating prevents any actual damage that prevents playback. Unfortunately, the only way to put the disc back on the spindle is to open it and pop it back on, or use the trick discussed here in the 'Loose Disc' thread here (takes some finesse).

Just to add a comment to @Apollon, the trick to pop back the disk into its holder, can only be done if you have only the steel in hands, it does not work if the steel is within the fullslip sealed as you will damage the cardboard of the Fullslip by pressing as instructed to pop it back in.
I know it is annoying, last month I received my Mint copy of Thor 2 Blufans which I ordered 11 months ago, and I have a loose disk. So either I keep it sealed with the loose disk or open it as Apollon stated to pop it back in. Loose disk are what worries me and a lot of collectors for the shipping journey, this is a reality that every steelbook collector will encounter, it sucks I know its not a great feeling I haven't opened my Thor 2 Yet to replace the disk still wondering what will I do
Cheers @Actarus. ATM I have just left it as is but I suspect I will end up opening it in the end as the loose disc is too annoying to ignore. One advantage for you is that the Thor 2 BF steelbook is more readily available to obtain than this though
True but got 2 copies and both are flawed, one shrink wrap is all screwed up so wondering if it affected the lenti or it is just on shrink wrap so it is bugging the hell out of me and like you said a disk loose is just very annoying to ignore it's almost like it is calling to you... I paid for those/pre-ordered last august so it is very annoying that I get 2 copies that are not Mint. I have been waiting almost 11 months for those copies and I wanted to keep them sealed and now I feel I need to open them both to make sure one copy the lenti is not affected its only on the shrink wrap and 2 the other copy with the loose disk how will I refrain myself from opening it ? it's bugging the hell outta me. Waiting for so long and I have no money to replace them, so it sucks but what can you do. So I feel your pain.
