Ip Man Trilogy (Blu-ray SteelBook) [UK]
- Thread starter hammerdave
- Start date
yeah, the price dropped again... first $30, then $25, and now $20 lol. I got my pre-order price-matched twice
Thanks for photos - sure looks the part with its smart sepia photograph muted period look and matte varnish finish 
Presumably the same finish on this Best Buy exclusive (exclusive only, if it's not an error in the listing, until the 17th May - only a month after its release !) as we'll be getting although that cannot be taken for granted as we've just seen with the latest "Star Wars" . . .
Should be remembered that regarding the Extras the U.K. edition is in a class apart and is choc-a-block with good stuff compared to other editions, with all the extras carried over from the Cine-Asia Amaray IP MAN 1 & 2 releases of a while ago - Extras reportedly exclusive to Cine-Asia - don't know about Extras on IP MAN 3 as don't own it.
Just check out the listed runtimes of the available steelbook trilogies:-
U.S. / Germany / Holland & Germany / Australia runtime = 321 / 314 / 308 mins.
U.K. runtime = 745 mins.
One thing puzzling me slightly about the BB pic (or is it that my eyes are playing tricks on me ?) is that the framing border appears to be lower than the central section - the central section appears to be raised instead of the other way around ???
If that's the case it'll be a first for a U.K. steelbook (I think) and consequently I don't see how the title can be embossed . . . de-bossed, maybe.
EDIT 21/4/16: At this time this is the "#1 Best Seller in Steelbook" on Amazon.

Just had mine dispatched. Be interesting to see how different this is to the US steel as I was very impressed with it.
Just arrived on my doorstep this morning. Pretty sure it's exactly the same as the US release. Release nice package and love the gold embossed title. It's matte but I don't mind that. Overall very happy with it and looking forward to watching IP Man 3.
As in they look identical to me but as I haven't got the US version I can't compare them in detail. But I can't see any difference as far as I'm concerned.
dents suck! can you do an exchange?
Man that sucks! Hope you get it sorted!
I Could but i've messaged Zavvi & sent pics and asked for a refund will order another from Amazon or HMV
looks like I'll have to get the UK version cos 7 hours of bonus content is definitely awesome unlike the 80 mins US version.
