Have you got it in hand?

No, not yet, only The Thing....

 

[blu-steel]

The Thing looks good. I have it. This one however looks like that cheap streaky matte finish.

And what is The Thing?? Same cheap streaky matte finish, very visible on back side....

 

[UpsetSmiley]

Looks like we've got a 'Maniac Cop' situation here. Arrow's The Thing is nothing like these, as a lot of people have said it's got a nice high quality metalic shine to it and it's not streaky.

 

[Flloydo]

This is a step down for arrow IMO. Streaky matte. No booklet, poster instead

You got one in hand by any chance? Any pics if you have?

I do, but Ive just got a new phone so at the moment it's backing up on iTunes

When that's done I'll take pics of this (and cars 2)

Nice - thanks! I cancelled mine a while back, but was just interested to see how these turned out in the end.

I posted some quick pics on the previous page......

Yeah, i saw those - thanks. I like to see pics posted by different persons, though - the slight variations in camera angle, lighting, etc, give me a more complete idea of what the product looks like.........most of the time, anyway.

I wasn't going to order but the art started to grow on me and wasn't sure how long it would last in stock (I do have a chip on the front though)

The artwork already grown on me as well and I don´t even have it in hands yet. I like those different green tones accross steelbook, I think it will be beautiful on certain light angles. Should get mine very soon

 

[tha_lunatic]

looks really good.

 

[Spinky]

Very noticeable scratch on the top of mine, noice.

 

[UpsetSmiley]

Thanks Flloydo! They did re-press the disc after all, so could be region free despite the region B logo.

I think it looks nice, i can't see the streaks though..........but you have it in hand so that makes all the differance. I always liked the artwork on this, i must say. Don't know how long this will be around, but IF it goes to a price drop ( unlikely, probably) then i might bite. I have the scarlet box already so i do have to question throwing more cash at this. I like it though, i do like it.......

It's because my photos are face on

At a angle you can see the streaks. I think where it's dark art it don't help but I do love the blue/ green used

Aha, i get what you mean - thanks!

Very noticeable scratch on the top of mine, noice.

Received mine today. The sparkly blue/green finish isn’t quite what I was expecting.

Mine also has a very long, straight mark across the top of the front underneath the cellophane.

Overall quite disappointing.

 

[lenticularis]

I really like the green metallic finish on this steel but not so keen on the few feint scratches on my copy. However, they're not too noticeable, apart from the ones on the front edge.

I have to admit that I haven't seen any of the Hellraiser films as yet so I'm really looking forward to watching this.
