Brilliant! I love this series, often hilariously funny :LOL:

Would be great to get steelbooks for the first four seasons, too.

Front cover would look great with high gloss finish :thumbs:

Zoom Exclusive bringing an extra step for us foreigners, but might get this, anyway.
 
They have to do the first four seasons and release them before season 5, otherwise it's pointless.

Hopefully other retailers will get this, like Hannibal - and hopefully Children of Men, another Universal title.

Also it's stupid that it doesn't say "season five" or "5" anywhere on the steelbook apparently.

Agree with other comments. Releasing a SteelBook for a single season five seasons in is just pointless and inconsiderate! It was pointless and inconsiderate when the BBC released Dr Who seasons without prior seasons, as well as Red Dwarf S10 without the previous nine, and this is equally as inconsiderate!

Not going to buy a random fifth season SteelBook of a show unless they release the previous four seasons as SteelBooks. They may as well save their time, money, and effort and not bother with it at all!

I would definitely be interested, but only if all the series gets the Steelbook treatment. I'm going to wait to see if any news before deciding to order.

... and this won't sell too well as there's no current commitment to produce steelbooks for the first four seasons :confused::LOL::hilarious:

Sometimes I think retailers just really don't understand collectors: steelbooks are a collector product, people want a collection, and if they announce plans for seasons 1-4 it'll sell a lot better than if it's just a one-off.

I agree. Without the first four seasons, this is a pointless release, and limits their demographic of potential customers. This is like getting dressed up to go to a fancy restaurant for a classy five course meal, then only being served a coffee and an after dinner mint.

Either stump up five seasons, or don't bother at all!

Should be on the front of the j-card/o-ring/slipcover AND on the spine and should look like the numbering on the Amaray edition.
Looking at the slipcover for Season Five I can see that there's no numbering and it's "clean" like the steelbook front:-

My guess would be that the designs of the other steelbook seasons when/if released will most likely replicate what they've done with Season Five and use very similar artworks to the Amaray seasons with the same style numbering on the front and spines.

That could be good for those that open their steelbooks. You could modify it to hold all 5 seasons and you have a complete collection in a single steel.
 
Has anyone got any news if they intend to bring out 1-4 and the final season 6?

I loved this programme, and USA have just got a really nice, limited, complete box set, and typically, we in the UK get all seasons shoved in a flimsy card board box. I was wondering about holding back to wait and see if the other seasons come out in steelbook format.
