I just saw this on The Futureshop Forums:

POSTED BY SAYBINATOR
"The Movie Team received an update early this week from Universal Studios. Details of the Fast Five Packaging type are changing.. Just waiting for final confirmation so we can post and communicate the changes.

Pre-order will be posted shortly after.."


So does this mean it might not be a Steelbook anymore? Or is the Art changing?

 

[digitalbabe]

No idea, Kaw-we'll have to stay tuned...

Well if the changes include CLOSE-UPS of Jordana Brewster and Gal Gadot on the front artwork that would be great!!! Woooooooooof wooooooooooooof

What confuses me is that he said Packaging TYPE. Maybe this is changing to the new Metal packaging now too? seems odd.

 

[digitalbabe]

Kaw, since the UK Steel changed orientation and art, I wonder if the same will be the case for FS-pure speculation, though. In many cases, as we all know, FS has an Exclusive, in art, or offering, so I hope that's not true. I mean, come on really, now, I NEED another, different version of this movie ...time will tell...

Very odd. : /

Any recent news on this? There still seems to be questions as to if this will be a SteelBook™.

I like the UK one too, but it's Region B, so I'm not buying the movie twice, when I can get the one at FS.

 

[ocielz]

Region free for UK right? Since its from universal, I know people have been saying that on amazon it states to be region B.

Yeah universal is always region free.

Usually on the Future Shop site they state it's a steelbook. But the Priest listing just says Future Shop Exclusive. I don't know why they can't just state it's steel.

Hey DB please keep us posted as soon as you hear anything from your "contacts" as to what's going on with this release??

 

[digitalbabe]

Shanester, sure thing

The above image clearly shows a G1 frame. The 2 little clips on the left hand panel between the 2 larger clips are a dead giveaway.

Looks like time to import, if you haven't already done so.

WhiteKnight of FS Forum:

Just as an update... the Steelbook is still going ahead for Fast Five, as I have seen some questions on this forum in regards to it. However, it will not be in G2 size.

Please note, we have heard all of your feedback in regards to G1 and G2... we are working tirelessly with the studios to be able to get Steelbooks in G2 format only. Unfortunately, there are sometimes limitations that are faced in terms of lead time (G1 can be produced in NA, G2 is produced in europe), number of discs, studio rights in NA, and demand from the US. Be assured, when a Steelbook is available from a studio, Future Shop is pushing hard to have it in the G2 size. We have heard you and we are working hard to get you what you want.

So OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED. Its G1.

 

[Chief]

Really disappointed.. >:[

I'm not a fan of the German Steel so I was really looking forward to this one. They might as well not bother putting it out if it's G1!

 

[Shanester]

Jurassic Park and now this too?? I hope this is not a trend

PS If Smurfs is G2 I'm really gonna go midevil on somebody!!

 

[Drum18]

WoW! FS really blew us off this week!
What a shame!

 

[digitalbabe]

Hey there, Drum,sadly it's not FS that makes the ultimate decision as to what size the Steelbooks are. The studios have to approve them. X-Men was cancelled by the studio itself,not FS.
