FYI-the following is some of the art that was discussed when Play was still working on this wave (thank you Play!). As this is tradewide now, anything can change, so all are still to be confirmed. See individual threads for more pics.

Xmen and RoboCop are my picks of this wave. Will probably pick up Edward at a later date. Bravo amazon.

Good news for importers outside UK / EU.

Star Wars original, prequel and 3 other Steels costs £85.01 including shipping to the US whereas UK buyers have to pay £93.58.

Rip off Britain.

Crazy how that works, isn't it?

I do love this country.

 

[funkydamo]

pre-ordered all but firefly and startwars prequal trilogy.
might pick both of those up if the price drops to the £20 mark, but i cant justify a double dip on either at £30 a go.
robocop is one ive been hoping for for a loong time, and edward scissorhands .
lets hope paramount and universal have another uk wave this year too (and warners, some more premium collection - to match the german/french digibooks would be nice)

 

[themanfromunkle]

X men artwork looks bad-pre booked Star Wars, robocop,ES & SOTL-any clue as to if FOX are releasing any others this year? I would assume the Star Wars sets will be the last time they can release them-heard someone say that Disney won't allow anything else to be released after the summer when they take control of distribution and 'Don't want to flood the market with Star Wars releases before the 7th film'-we'll see....
can't see universal or paramount doing too much this year-their 100 year celebrations were last year and they didn't really roll out the boat-(no back to the future re-release!)

Seems like Amazon only have limited allocation for these titles. It may be time to pre-order if you haven't already whilst they're still at this great price.

Edward Scissorhands - 768
Firefly - 999+
Platoon - 688
Predator 2 - 355
The Silence of the Lambs - 603
Star Wars Original Trilogy - 999+
Star Wars Prequel Trilogy - 716
X-Men - 737

Whether they will be restocked or not who knows, but not worth the risk to find out I don't think.

So only Robocop is sold out currently. Bizarre how the Star Wars prequels have less stock left than the original trilogy - some strange forces going on?!

 

[blurayisnice]

I ordered everything

 

[Vaako]

I ordered everything

that means you are a steelbook addict

 

[yonyx]

Last week I pre-ordered three of them: Platoon, Silence of the lambs and Robocop. Can't wait to get them

 

[harryboy24]

Just x-men for me.

 

[Wreck]

So only Robocop is sold out currently. Bizarre how the Star Wars prequels have less stock left than the original trilogy - some strange forces going on?!

my guess is the qty on the original was higher. example: 8k vs. 4k Still trying to get a hard confirm tho on actual qty on star wars.

all other fox titles in this wave are 4k tho.

Rip off Britain.

But dont you get VAT removal when ordering from amazon.de? If so ... same thing really.

And the Great British Pound is worth more then the Dollar so while the price seems lower for us ... its still high in our eyes.

Cause 85GBP is $128 ...

Nope VAT is EU wide so charged on anything purchased within Europe

Damn, this new wave is costing me too much.....I'v pre-ordered Edward Scissorhands, Platoon, Predator 2, X-Men, and both Star Wars. Be nice if they all have some kind of embossing / debossing.

 

[digitalbabe]

Platoon and Firefly have embossing/debossing, not sure about others.

:star wars: Only the Star Wars steels can really save this wave now imo.

Here's hoping the later release for date for both the Prequel & Original trilogy is to allow for a
quality glossy/bling finish :star wars:
