Pre-ordered this long ago. Pretty stoked to see the "Temporary Image" caption removed. Now, let's hope for some badass emossing / debossing and back artwork, as opposed to text.

Either way, this is better than the other one. Though i'm still pre-ordering the Taiwan release.

I reorder this. Just over £15 shipped to UK which is a bargain. I'm still keeping my uk Zavvi order at the moment but ill probably cancel it and get the Korean when released.

Hopefully they can make this perfect by doing a clean back. Its a high possibilty as I haven't seen a new release have a printer blue banner.

I'm pretty sure it WON'T have a clean back. Will probably be printed like Concordes previous releases of Iron Man 1 and 2.


I think people expecting this to be embossed/debossed etc...for £15 will be a left a little disappointed.
 
Love the artwork! But I'm not getting my hopes up with a glossy and embossed finish. Expecting a matte, the details printed on the back, light weight steel and one disc....Price shipped is great though :thumbs:

I don't get why people love the artwork? it's exact same artwork except it's in the front instead of the back compare to the other release?
 
Because it's different from (so far) every other IM3 release of which the artwork has been revealed. If front and back on SBs didn't matter, we wouldn't be in this game.

I'm wondering whether this or the other IM3 steel book will better match with HMV IM1 and Korean IM2 steelbook. Any Suggestion? HELP

HMV Iron Man 1????? You mean Play.com's? Anyway, Zavvi's would be the best to match those two as that release will be embossed also and have clean back artwork.
 
I do like that artwork, but seeing as it's going to be on the back of the Zavvi one I think I'll stick with that. I think that whilst this is a cheaper option, I do think the Zavvi one will be a little better quality
