I don't think Kimchi could come close to this one TBH, short of artwork showing Pepper Potts screwing Iron Mans nuts or panel beating him.

The hell did I just read @_@

Yeah, that's quite funny...

Anyone know why there's no BluFans IM2? It seems a strange omission when they're doing CA 1 & 2 and Thor 1 & 2.

Some are reckoning that IM2, IM3, Incredible Hulk and Avengers might come in a second Marvel wave in the new year.

I hope so

 

[charleybusko]

I hope so too, but seeing how Marvel makes things tough in choosing artwork, I won't be surprised if nothing transpires. Collectors would prefer WEA.

Does anyone know what's the print run on this bad boy. Thx.

 

[urbeenjammin]

Well at least the good news is,what ever the print run is,by the time the group buy ends and any other extras come this way,it will all be OOP by the time it is released in 2015.
In that regards,it will be automatically be inducted into the "HALL OF STEELS"

I understand and if at anytime you feel you are being mistreated or if you think an action is devaluing a thread then you are more than welcome to message me and let me know.

Sometimes there are some things cooking behind the scenes that prevent such information from being shared immediately. So its not to say there isnt good intent still for the community. Kinda like how I know of a certain studio doing a wave this fall in the US. Just cant say nothing ..... yet.

Looks like someone might have spilled the beans already...

Haha not a lot I can share.

Sony might bring in a large line of catalog later in the year. e One and warner might bring some super collector level steels later this year and next year.

Walking dead I've been talking about S1 and S2, but nothing near confirmed yet

 

[Wreck]

There's always more info.

But anything xerox says is also always legit. He's the main Canuck running the game

wreck why u gotta tease

You guys should know that until the Steels hit the shelves, they are all rumours or hearsay, so don't fret too much about not hearing news 3-4 mos down the line. Anything can happen anyway.

You're right about that Guile. We're hoping just maybe the US might get a steelbook release of IM1. That would be nice and surprising
As for the Blufans IM1, just awesome to have. I had never heard of front & back embossing prior to this. Way to go BLUFANS!!!

I had never heard of front & back embossing prior to this.

Have you ever had a look at The Raid UK or WFRR?

 

[charleybusko]

Have you ever had a look at The Raid UK or WFRR?

Nope, not in my collecting interest. That would explain why I haven't heard about front & back embossing prior to IM1 Blufans. Thanks for the info Megabee.

 

[kidmanu]

GB at next door forum still open. Blufans has changed their strategy, Order first then counting to make a print run.

Raid was debossed, but Who Framed Roger Rabbit Zavvi Steelbook was embossed front and back.

 

[JH2607]

No, Roger rabbit was debossed on front and back otherwise it would have had a frame

 

[jeffster15]

No it embossed, one of the few to not have a border.

 

[paulboland]

Who Framed Roger Rabbit Zavvi Steelbook
The front of the Steelbook is embossed and it has a frame (Border) the embossing is within the frame (border)
The Back is debossed

The Title is not embossed that's why there is not the usual border around the edge of the steelbook as its not needed

The frame on the front is the border
A border (frame) to do embossing it can be a square/rectangular/circle
