Beautiful rendition for sure

Fellas, when you mention UK, does it include or mean Zavvi, Amazon UK, HMV ?

Yeah it means all 3 retailers

It would be stated if it was a retailer exclusive

And Italy. But Italy have a small amount and different disc art

 

[Mararagan]

Do you anticipate a possible bloodbath for it on release date so i can go straight to Italy and hope to snag one ?

Sure looks like a beautiful set. As for embossing/debossing on the steelbook: While it's always a nice touch (i.e, it takes an already beautiful King Kong steelbook to the next level), I don't personally mind if it's lacking on a steelbook with nice artwork and a great finish. I think this will still be a beauty, and it's certainly understandable that they are doing as much as possible within budgetary restrictions. But I totally get the sentiment of wishing this set had it, and @Flloydo is right that these are getting right up there with 'premium' releases. Honestly, I would give away a lot of my premiums before I'd ever depart with that King Kong set (and, man, what I would do to someday get a edition like that for the 1933 film).

If I had a suggestion it would be to never again use the large "UltraHD + blu-ray" on the spines like with the Jaws sets. Beyond that, let's give credit because folks at Universal UK have been doing crazy good work for several years now. It's not just these recent collector's edition sets - which seem to keep improving in quality and appearance - but also other releases like the really great Chucky TV show steelbooks. Here in the US, we have Lionsgate making some nice and sometimes very affordable steelbooks. But nobody is coming even close to what they are doing at Universal UK.

The movie didn't really set the world on fire so I would anticipate moderate interest.

Atomic blonde, kong and Northman didn’t really set the world on fire either but look at how those editions panned out and the want for them. Look at all the chaos when orders were being cancelled and scalpers got involved. Soho will be as popular as kong trust me. All retailers won’t last long

Have you seen how many of us here are frothing at the mouths for this?

It'll go, but not anywhere near Manta or even Nova level. Kong went in under an hour but I don't think two retailers even bothered to have on the minimum buy levels and those greedy little piggies took unfair amounts to resell; Atomic was about half an day; I think Northman took a lot longer to go, a few days at retailers, might have been more.
No one knows approximate levels of retailer stock. I doubt its an equal split.

 

[Ranavalone]

Atomic was about half an day

By the way, Atomic Blonde is again in stock at Amazon...

And that's all there is. Plus a couple of people on my forum, and another dozen on 'the other forum'... oh, and those happy-happy freak-zombies from that other other forum with the Chinese bootlegs.

Yesterday a courier delivered one of my freight forwarded huge boxes - they usually contain 30+ titles $600+ worth, and while I was filling out a ridiculous backwards proof of receipt form, straight from the 90's Brazil world, I told him how hard it is to get these packages lately, with the war and sanctions and all, and he just shrugged - 'why don't you use torrents'... I keep forgetting that we're 'special' and most people don't give a damn, or two cents, for these precious editions of ours...
