This looks more like a cheap Chinese knock off someone's selling in the local the more I look at it


Go see dodgy Dave near the toilets, he's also the one who sells those F UCK & Ralph Loren shirts
 
Oh, come on, man. We all knew - including you, what he meant.
But the moron part was a low blow. I prefer to read comments without personal insults.

Of course i knew what he meant, i was just helping him out ;)

I tend not to reply to a personal insult on the net nowadays, just not worth it.

I also think poking fun at people "Blindly buying" this or any steelbook is a Immature move and shouldnt belong in this community.

If this is a "poor" steelbook then I'd like to know how to label many of the TRULY poor steelbooks of which there are many (compared to this one that is):-
Execrable ? Abhorent ? Ghastly ? Shocking ? Hideous ? Appalling ? Dreadful ? Frightful? Offensive? Detestable ? Loathsome ? Repellent ? Repulsive ? Grim? etc.

There are loads of poor steelbooks but they are not usually priced this high and it's marvel (many collectors dream), we have high standards of marvel when you compare to other releases of marvel some countries have had in the past (blu fans, play, kimchi etc) so I was hoping (possibly like many) they would mirror that quality

Price would of been more acceptable if these had a qualtiy finsh and some a much better design (and some back art)

Holy crap, that's a lot of adjectives :rofl:
 
Poor steelbook



Why are you sliding it off? :banghead: :stop: It's a magnet it will come off lifting it from a corner, I would not slide it back on as well, put an edge on first, if you miss then lift it off, then try again, until you get it right. In short use the magnetic force/effect don't work against it. I can see why some people claim it will scuff or cause hairline scratches on gloss steelbooks, I know this is not gloss but I'd not take any chances. I know some will not want to put it back on but there may be other steelbooks you have with magnetic Lentis.

Thanks for the review anyway, as for the steelbook looks average in this video, not sure what to think, will wait for other Ninja reviews, I have the other versions so it's ok if I don't buy any of them.. :thumbs:

These are no worse than the Zavvi first edition of Captain America and Thor. Those finishes were horrible. They had that ugly brown hue to it.
 
this steel is clearly zero finish to me(because of the way the steel reflects the light), so the finish is better than simple/fully matte steels :) (and there are quite a lot of matte steels .... :()
too bad this and other marvel steels of this wave are not fully glossy though of course.. :/
 
I slid it off for 2 reasons. 1- it won't scratch the steelbook, regardless of what you've heard. And 2- I couldn't care less. It's cheap. I bought it for uniformity and don't plan on scalping it on eBay.

- Absolument
- Had there been no magnets I would have completely agreed with you

Some fully thick matte finished (non streaky) steels are very vibrant

I feel awful for those that paid full price for this after reading these comments, can't everyone be just a little kinder?

I'm sure each of us have bought a dud in our time and also regretted it.

What I find a shame is that some people may like this and people squabbling like children over it, is well childish. It's a steelbook take a :chill pill: please people.

I know a few people who bought it and really like it, if I didn't have what I deem to be a really poor steelbook which was the original release of this, i would get this but I don't double dip. In comparison this is much nicer than original release in my opinion. It's nice colour, 3D and lenticular front, there is MANY a worse steel than this particularly for people who don't own this incredible film.

@Flash (Thinking out loud here) Why don't you move along your original and purchase a copy of this re-release if this is your much preferred Steel? Just a thought... :thumbs:
