Might go for the white slip version. Steelbook looks great

With the PET slips over the steelbook

Love it. White slip for me. Obvs need a 3rd GITS 4K steel

 

[ethnosax]

No title on the steelbook spine. That doesn't happen often.

 

[Noodles]

Wow, love these! White one for me

It don’t need it. It’s got a PET with it on and you won’t see a fuzzy double title on the shelf

Yep. It makes sense, it's just unusual.

 

[Noodles]

Oh, and really decent price too! Just goes to show they can do a 4K steelbook release for less than £35... makes the regular prices seem even more ridiculous when this also includes a nice slip and art cards, all for £30.

Yep. It makes sense, it's just unusual.

Yeah true, guess there’s more examples but off the top my head can only think of Manta Everything everywhere all at once

 

[Flloydo]

Think I’ve got like 4 ghost in the shell steels now and I like them all but this is definitely the best art for me. Blows all the others except maybe Mondo out the water

Much better than the Mexifunk, Matt Fergurson and the old teal coloured steels

 

[ethnosax]

Nothing has yet topped the venerable ol' Pop Art steelbook for me, but this edition looks like the one to get. Much better than the Ferguson-illustrated set from a few years ago, which should have been better than it was, if more care had been put into the details.

I'm seeing 3 images, the slip with the full camo, a transition where the camo is only partially on and the steel. The partial camo one has the BBFC logos like the one in the hero shot so, is it a lenti?

No. It's a pet slip with a cutout in the middle, for the steel design. Pretty much like all the lionsgate pet slips.

 

[TheWildEye]

Don't mind if I do.


And, I did.
White one.
This will do nicely.
More Ghost Steels. Love it.


This is still my favourite of the 3 I've currently got.

But...


...this new one right here is AWESOME!

I Iove the new art. Cool drop for a Wednesday afternoon.
Gorgeous. Instant order. Done.


It's up at HMV too.

Someone should get around to giving us a release for the available 4K version of the second film Ghost in the Shell - Innocence.
I think I've seen UHD versions in Japan and Spain/Italy but none with English Subtitles.

It's still three images, so is it a PET slip for a slipcase?

Isn't the middle image with the steelbook inside the Pet Slip?

No. Left is empty slip. Middle is steel in slip. Right is steel only.
