Miss those embossed/debossed glossy metal slips from down under, now these were the bomb, I say bring them back in low quantity

I'm with you on this one. I do not know what sort of print runs they have on these steels but they certainly are not low, and stay around for a while

The JB sticker is nice! Time to go for a walk

That Sticker is very nice. Is that a new design? Don't think I have seen it on any previous Steelbook releases.

I think it is a new sitcker. Similar to this one tho

Has everyone who has gotten this steelbook gotten a 100% mint copy? Just making sure since I read people were having issues with the steelbook in France. Since every country is getting the same looking steelbook, I figured I'd ask.

Also, is the disc art English only?

I haven't actually bought this but did have a look instore. It has the same issue as any embossed steel in that there's the "popping" effect on a large number of copies where the front bulges slightly but there are also a lot without this issue. One thing I will say is that the cover image is very dark. The editing could've been better.

Quite tempted to pick this up, although not sure if

it's the type of film I can watch over and over again

. And the ending

was a bit of an anti-climax.

BUT, it was good fun watching Herzog as a villain.

 

[TakingYoSteelz]

I thoroughly enjoyed it, blujazz, but the steelbook is a bit of a lazy effort in my opinion.

Welcome

Thanks. I actually have that issue with my copy of Captain America from Germany, but that's actually not what I meant. I meant the faint scratch on the front of the steelbook that people have been complaining about with the France release.

If this one doesn't have that issue and the disc art is full English, then I will order this one.

 

[TakingYoSteelz]

Oh, sorry buddy! I didn't notice that myself..

 

[PS3_Kiwi]

I have the Australian release, and it does have the popping issue. There is no disc art, just black print (in English) on a silver background. Several of the Paramount SteelBook releases have the same type of disc art (or lack of)

 

[tuffeerik]

What JR releases have a low print run except entertainment store?

 

[d531]

the same with other countries?

 

[frankfish44]

Wow............bumping all the threads I see

Thanks. That's exactly what I wanted to know in regards to the disc art. Like I said in my previous post though, I'm not asking about the popping issue. I'm asking if there are any faint scratches on the front of this release like people were complaining about with the French release.
