Spoiler

It was confirmed that this will have the title on the front and spine, while the steel is underwhelming nonetheless.

It's confirmed to have title on front but not spine

Could be my mistake. I was positive that it was confirmed to have title on the spine as well.
Honestly, I do not think it makes much of a difference, IMHO.

Im Really disappointed that Best Buy won't be continuing with exclusive Marvel Steelbooks that have Front & Spine Titles. I was hoping for a whole set that followed that same formula.

I will still go Cray-Cray and buy hella copies of this, No Doubt. But, very disappointing none the less.

I guess I'll be on the lookout for another retailer like Kimchi, Nova Media, or PA to release this title with an exclusive artwork with the characters actually on the Steelbook

It has the title going down sideways on the front, along with the Marvel logo, just next to that arrow that's pointing down.

That slip doesn't make sense at all. You have a horizontal steelbook with a vertical slip. What about people who keep their steelbooks sealed?

Terrible, terrible and terrible.

Man a movie of this caliber deserves so much better of a steelbook, even thou the walkman is a part of the movie.

I agree, and I think everyone knows that. However, it doesn't represent the movie at all. Alright, the music was awesome, so what? The movie wasn't about that.

This steelbook will end up being the one with the most "missed opportunities", ever. I mean, how many ideas could have worked better than the official artwork? Countless.

It looks nothing like the walkman in the film though.
I mean, how'd they manage to even screw that detail up when coming up with this steelbook?

Nope. The artwork sucks. But unfortunately, it's the only artwork that is available.

 

[pi2loc]

The worst about this is that the steelbook will be sold out just as quickly as the other Marvel releases were. Disney will not get the message and will probably do the same with Avengers: Age of Ultron.

They better not or we should all riot at Disney headquarters.

 

[nexor]

We should dress up as Disney/Marvel characters when we riot. I could make a Walkman costume.

 

[blu-steel]

I fully expect Kimchi to dress it up with a nice Lenticular.

 

[Marina Blue]

I fully expect Kimchi to dress it up with a nice Lenticular.

YES!!!!!

 

[pi2loc]

I fully expect Kimchi to dress it up with a nice Lenticular.

It's a horizontal steelbook. Would you like the slip to be horizontal as well or... would you be OK with having a horizontal steelbook with a vertical slip?

The plot thickens...

 

[EyeSeeDarkness]

The more I think about it, the less I want this steel book.

It would look completely off from the rest of the Marvel steels. At least the horizontal The Incredible Hulk looks nice compared to this.

 

[Dawald]

I fully expect Kimchi to dress it up with a nice Lenticular.

Yeah they will and it will be EPIC.

 

[KazzPetrelli]

Damn, that's looks so retro! Classic!

 

[snooloui]

I fully expect Kimchi to dress it up with a nice Lenticular.

You can add all the bells and whistles you like, it's still a turd. A more expensive and harder to acquire turd.

 

[dLux]

No title on the spine!?!?!
That can't seriously be right... can it?

 

[raw341]

Great idea but doesnt match with the previous releases. Hopefully Kimchidvd or Blufans will save us

 

[StifflersDad]

Don't really care if it matches previous releases. Just don't want this shite art.
