Is THAT the slipcover? LOL. What an ugly piece of crap! I don't even consider it a slipcase/cover... It's just a border with some Asian letters I don't understand.

I thought there would be a yellow slipcase with the tiger?

The yellow slipcase is for the amaray if I'm not wrong. Not too pleased with how this turned out either but I'm still hoping it'll look better in hand.

I was really hoping the yellow slip with the tiger was going to be used.

Maybe I missed something here but why is no one going for the UK edition?

 

[Fork]

this looks pretty bad imo, tempted to cancel now

 

[Ush]

Glad I didn't order two. This is disappointing.

Steelbooks in Asia usually offer something else like a neat slip, booklet, bonus disc, sticker(s). These small extras and their limited print create a strong demand for collectors. Also, many members know they tend to rise in value. Take Thor JP for example, it's quarter slip appeals to many. A copy of Thor JP has sold near $1,000 US dollars.

Aha! Thanks, Steelnight47. Now I see the light.

Im in for UK and decides to cancel this. Im not happy with the cover

Unfortunately I think that early talk of a full lenticular slip for this one led people to imagine that it might be something like the HK Transformers 3. So the reality is something of a disappointment after that.

At least it does come with the book cover and a 40 page photo booklet though, so overall it's a decent package, if a bit unexciting.

The UK ed. is sold out mate, has been for a couple of weeks if not more. There was a tremendous interest in that release as well, considering that it was the first steel announced for this movie

Don't make a big mistake

Sold out at Amazon, still up for pre-order at Zavvi & Sainsburys.

I'm really excited & looking forward to this beauty, doubt any other country out there will beat this release from the king of slips Country

My bad - didn't realise that these guys hadn't sold out yet.. They are a little more expensive as compared to Amazon though

Iam not sure what people dont like about this slip cover? I think it looks amazing!

 

[lgans316]

I will be opening mine as it is pointless to keep this sealed and let it remain a Virgin.

 

[hatredhorror]

Iam not sure what people dont like about this slip cover? I think it looks amazing!

to me it looks plain and boring with far too much unnecessary info

 

[Phi Chong]

Does anyone know if it'll be a lenticular magnet on the steelbook like the UK release?

 

[earthscope]

Although it could have been so much better I am still keeping my order in, and will wait to see what KR gives us.

The thing that bugs me the most is the 3D plastered every where. I no it's in 3D but how many times do they need to print it on the slip, or should I say box now !!!

 

[hayemaker]

It looks like that Expendables Hero Pack that came out of Germany recently. I imagine this will be quite heavy and thick.
