I wanted to buy the KimchiDVD Iron Man but their useless website allowed me to put a copy in my cart but then when I went to pay it had disappeared and was 'out of stock'. The blufans does look to be the better steelbook and if I were given the choice it's the steelbook I'd choose; so not that disappointed about missing the Kimchi. I expect ebay to be flooded with overpriced kimchi Iron Man steelbooks any day now.
 
I love this! Thank you Blufans and Kevin for the GBs (yes, I know he is no longer active here :/).
I am just waiting to see what the 1/4 slip looks like now.

It's a winner already love the quality Blufans provide it makes it worth the wait. Can't wait to have both of these beauties in hand to enjoy... [emoji41]

Embossed front is a downgrade style-wise IMO, and it's now less consistent front-to-back as someone else has already mentioned. That said, this release still has the top IM1 spot locked up by a mile. It's just not near perfect, as it was before, which is a mild bummer.
 
I think this will be a clear lesson learned for future reference...do NOT release two steelbooks for the same HUGE title around the same time. Everyone is going to criticize each of them to death and one will be hated. I think they both look great but I don't have either in my hands yet to make a final decision. I also hope that THESE ARE THE LAST IRON MAN STEELBOOKS EVER MADE.

I doubt that
At some stage you most likely will see Disney/Marvel re release in UK/Europe

But I'm still hoping for IM 2 & 3 to complete the trilogy..IM 3 needs an upgrade!

You realise that the ultimate Iron Man collection will not be complete without the v1 sample? By far the rarest Iron Man steelbook! :D
 
It's official... the 2nd place spot is vacant cos the heat brought by the awesomeness of this steel as it takes a stranglehold of 1st place for best Iron Man steel is simply amazing.
The rest can tussle over 3rd place.
Just my opinion.
Blufans all the way!!!

Ah, but you see the Kimchi has that wow factor, perhaps not as striking but a certain elegant beauty, no embossing but more sass. :drool:

Like salad without the dressing, the way I like it. ;)
