I like the front and inside but the back is a little strange. I hope this bucks the trend of title-less slips though as I may look to get this if the slip artwork is good and a UK release doesn't materialise.
If Film Arena really want to be taken seriously, they need to release real exclusives not just add some nice extras to Worldwide releases. The titles and Steelbooks themselves have been a little lacklustre so far, mainly because they are shared and not exclusive.In consideration... will be relatively easy to get(not Nova)
FA is stepping up big time
Since it is an OAB, Blufans will use the WWA release and Print run for OAB usually run between 300 to 500...but surely a thread will be open soon for this Blufans OAB release.
Would rather have this version than the Blufans. Loving the quality of the card on these slips over what Blufans use! 
I respectfully disagree, I don't think the choice has been lacklustre. I was already interested in most of these recent titles prior to the full slip treatment and if anything increased my willpower to buy it. Sure, some world exclusive art would be nice but to be honest I'm just glad there's now a European retailer who provides near Blufans/Kimchi quality. A step in the right direction at least.
Kimchi has done time and time again, it is not unusual for a retailer to release Exclusive packages with custom made SlipCovers, Great Quality Photo cards and other bonus items and also numbering cards and sticker for the slip... they have done extensive exclusive release even though they are using WWA steel which basically we would have bought, one way or another, but at least this way we are getting really nicely and thoughtfully put together Packages at a very decent Price. Kimchi has done it, Nova does it with their Nova Choice Line, Blufans do it with their OAB, so it is not unusual and if it is their strategy to enter the market of Exclusive packages this way I give them Praise as they are succeeding. And they have proved they are worthy of competition on the exclusive market using the WWA steel as so far every release has been a tremendous success. Maybe in the Future they will do like every other and end up putting their toe in the WEA Pool but so far they have released exquisite Packages that are worthy to be part of a Collector's Collection. If it ain't for you, you don't have to purchase it.
Indeed this should have a similar release like HG3 Hopefully, but I don't expect this to be ultra limited like Elektra that has a print run of 300 to this date.
The GF wants to see this movie, missed it in the theater, perfect reason to buy this release. Hoping it stays at or under 600czk. Bring back those 20 euro copies baby!
Definitely buy as FA wont disappoint. For me, the Mondo & FA releases are keeping steelbook collecting interesting as each release seems to be getting better and better whilst HDN group buys are simple and effortless.
