Is it same finish for all releases worldwide?

Who did the art for this?

The gloss is boss. Just wish the North American version didn't have "3D" printed.

Who did the art for this?

I don't know but it looks mondo-esque.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

The cover was actually the poster Regency cinemas in the US gave out in opening night.

But who made that poster.

No, I believe this is the only gloss finish. Most of the other worldwide releases are Matte.

And oh does this gloss finish feel so, so nice - smooth and buttery in your hands

All kidding aside, the gloss finish while a magnet for smudges, is an instant distinction of a valued collectible in any one's hands. Most of my non-SteelBook collecting friends aren't impressed by matte, non-embossed SBs like the US Warner wave. But this one and others like ZD30 drew their attention like bees to honey. More gloss, more 'bossed, more color, thank you very much!
