Star Trek XI (black) is considered a "Zavvi Exclusive" but a similar steelbook is available from Amazon.de. Looks exactly the same.

"Zavvi Exclusive" means UK region and not worldwide, right?

Same thing with the Good Day to Die Hard being a HMV Exclusive.

True. But they have a listing of Oblivion and that not listed as an "Exclusive" IDK. Im just hoping theres going to be a IM3 release with better art than this.

edit: Oblivion is also listed on Amazon UK. So yeah I get it now. IM3 Zavvi is exclusive in the UK

 

[Frasr]

Hopefully we'll see that price drop when it goes live

Is it confirmed that is does not have a raised border?

I dont think so
I said I only wish it did

Hope this is 3D too or I'll be going Italian by the looks of it!

exclusive just means to the country of origin e.g this art in exclusive to zavvi in the UK. But other countrys can still use it

That's because you can buy Oblivion from Amazon.uk and probably Sainsbury and any other UK retailer

You can only buy Iron Man 3 in the UK from Zavvi if it's a Zavvi Exclusive.

Oblivion is available for sale from other retailers in the UK. When Zavvi list something as exclusive on their site, it usually means that they are the only UK retailer selling that item.

We had this a lot times before. The exclusiveness is just for the country it is released in. An other country possibly has the same artwork

It says it goes live on Sat June 12th... well today is June 12th and it isn't a Saturday... is it tonight or Sat?

Your right, but an earlier post from Wreck stated Zavvi was going to have different artwork. Wonder if zavvi meant different compared to amazon.de?

Doesn't it have to have that if there is embossing? You have to have a debossed section (means there'll be a border) so you can get the embossing created.

Has there ever been embossing on something that wasn't debossed to make a border?

Goes live later today...scheduled for 11 pm GMT.

Will this sell out quicker than Jungle Book and Mermaid, presuming this is 10k in line with those releases?

thanks for the info but FFS Zavvi, I was hoping to get an early night tonight after lack of sleep last few days...guess its another late one for me

Given popularity of title, seems likely to me, but we shall see . I am ordering as soon as it goes live, just in case, I enjoyed this flick.

Jack Reacher was a worlwide release, must have been a huge number. Didn't stop the UK version selling for over £100 on ebay solely due to the UK j-card. Odd how some things work

It Spain is also 3D, this would become the only 2D version with this art, is that correct?

its always safer to pre-order right away and cancel before release if you change your mind

The only time i don't have access to buy is when I'm sleeping and this is going live then lol I got to be up at 6.30 tomorrow so staying up until midnight is out of the question.

I can't see this selling out in 6-7 hrs so hopefully ill be able to get a copy when I get up.
