If you can't find your copy of Gladiator No Dings I think I might know where it is

This is what I'm deciding at the moment as well (expecting it to arrive tomorrow). If it was the 40th edition, or had the 40th edition audio/video transfer but kept the previous extras I'd keep it, but if it's the transfer from the previous version I might just send it back.
Pity really, as on Amazon Japan it says:
"disk of this product is the same as recording contents as "[Limited Edition] Enter the Dragon production 40th Anniversary Remastered Blu-ray" of the 2013/07/17 release."

Given the price of the Japanese version and the strength of the pound that is the one I am going for. There is also a nice blu-ray collectors edition with a t-shirt and postcards at Amazon.co.jp that has tumbled in price - presently 3263YEN

The Steelbook is still available at Entertainment Store for less compared to Zavvi and Amazon (£14.99), can we link that in the OP as well?

So WB have pressed the 'original' disc with unremastered video (riddled with aliasing) and lossy audio even though a much better transfer exists. My god, you couldn't make this up!

With this and Fifth Element, looks like the studios have found a way to shift old stock now lol

Majority of the Steelbook releases had inferior discs inside. Studios have been taking full advantage of consumers.

It is what it is-I will say the embossing is a nice touch, just not sure about the artwork

It's a disgrace for sure. They may as well send out an empty steelbook seeing as you have to swap it out for the better version anyway.

This is a very nice looking steelbook
Looks even better than the Photos will show
Its has a nice blue shine when light shines on it best if seen in the flesh
