Looks real nice. Is the spot gloss just on the title, or characters etc.. as well?

Just appears to be the title. There are also nice touches within the frame of the steel itself where bits of the aeroplane and debris are slightly embossed as it enters into the frame.

Nice. Thanks. I was hoping they'd be extra random embossing, other than the title.

Hang on. Cancelled yesterday because of incorrect numbers. But they were listing more for pre order yesterday.
When did you order it may I ask?
This week or 1st listing in June?

This week. I missed it the first time round

I managed to sneak in an order yesterday and when I got back it was showing as out of stock. I think I've been charged for it but I'm not going to assume anything till it turns up or they confirm they can't honour it.

I would be a bit nervous if I placed an order on day one and they haven't charged anything yet though, I mean there's still time but why process newer orders over older? More mistakes with this release would be very on theme though.

I’ve not been charged yet for the order I placed yesterday

 

[Mr.Pink]

ebay sellers with at least 5 available..

Geez, those pics. Everything about this set is perfect. I’ve always loved that image on the front of the steelbook and how you can see the Chrysler Building in the background.

Looks like I've just been charged by hmv. Thank **** for that.

 

[Mr.Pink]

[tono06]

Got a shipping notice from Orbit.

Mine as well! I always wonder how they send those releases at the same time as UK being a USA based store….

 

[Flloydo]

Yep just been charged too

 

[Wally1988]

Yep just been charged too

Same here payment taken

 

[spookz]

........ and breathe again!

Payment taken HMV. They did the same with Blade Runner steel last week. Dispatched Friday & arrived Saturday.

They do have some in stock at bluraysforeveryone, but the price is a bit inflated.. last I saw was around $80, but it’s better than $150 on eBay.

out of interest, i made a test (cancelled) purchase on their site this week for another item. i live in the UK, i believe they are in the UK, and they wanted £23 for cheapest post. so... maybe i made an error, but won't be rushing back.
