fantastic news!!!!!!!!!! it was only the other day I was moaning about the price of these, which was putting me off ordering :(

My Aussie mate is going to find a few orders from me to forward on now lol :D I don't trust the store putting a low customs cost on the package
 
Oh no, just saw all these "steelcase" instore and they are not the regular steelcases. They are cheap folded bits of tin. printed logos. I am not buying any. pure rubbish. cancel if you can.

They are nothing like the previous steelcases? How is it considered a steelcase then if it's cardboard?

Luckily I didn't order any yet because I wanted to see pics first. I was really skeptical because of the re-release of Saving Private Ryan in the bunch. I didn't think they would be the same thing.

I'll be sending them a strong email once I receive my package and point out how Paul, Apocalypse Now, FF5, Scarface, etc are called "metal slipcases" and that these should have really been advertised as something else, using a different name or description. False advertising, surely.

No, they are nothing like previous releases. They are not cardboard, they are very flimsy tin. The fold over on the back is visible and quite big.

It's hard say if it's JB or the distributor. Paramount had them listed as "steelbooks" . You never know what you are going to get, no matter what they list it as.
 
Thanks for the info! Now i´m glad i didn´t order any. I had them at least ten times in the cart but couldn´t bring myself to send the order! Lucky me but i´d still like to see some pics!

well this is disappointing to say the least but I guess I should be thanking them since I'll be saving some money.
