Nice art, but finish will be most likely utterly terrible as always with German steels cheap crap bare metal.

Leonine does full gloss for their WEA Steelbooks.

Dang that's nice. Would be all over this if 4K.

 

[MM3]

No 4K and they did not use the best image for Keanu's face.

so many 4k wh0res here... it's all about the steelbook

Exactly. The steel is king. You can buy the disc anywhere.

This is the artist and gives an idea what's underneath the J-Card

It's one of the cards in the HMV edition.
All art so far is from them, on boxes, slips, red steel. Only the Bol.com is new.

If a company is going to release a steelbook with the best art (a matter of opinion), might as well include 4K as it's the superior format. Why change the original disc in a collectible?

Why change the original disc in a collectible?

That disc is mass-produced for a dozen countries for dozens of releases. It's not unique.
Why pay extra for another UHD disc, unless it's the only edition you're buying, ever?
All that besides them so called '4k' discs looking basically the same as BDs for recently released movies.

Exactly.., Why pay extra for another disc? They could charge $5 more and include 4K, which would be better than paying $20 for the 4K amaray. Collectors pay more for 4K. For example, people pay more for the Blufans 4K edition of Blade Runner 2049 despite the fact that the 3D edition is identical with the exception of the one disc.

The funny thing is I wonder how many people in this forum even bother to open their steels and change the discs in the first place.

Zero finish would make this steel less desirable.

Again, as I noted in the post you quoted, this doesn't apply if you're only buying that one release and need a 4K disc. Presumption is you'll have it in another release you'll buy anyway, be it a different steelbook, or a Boxset like the HMV First Edition.

Any chance of a Group Buy for this version? I'm unable to get it shipped to the USA directly it seems.

These two stores only ship inside Germany. Maybe Austria but i'm not sure. So your only hope is GB or 2ndary market.
