So they must have increased the print run on this, will cancel and stick with uk one.

I don't think they did. Amazon Germany are notorious for only listing small quantities at a time then releasing more.

I think only after release do they re-print ;)
 
Yes, I will cancel mine too. Too expensive. No price drop, expected one.
But 100 Euros is too much, you're basically paying 15-20 Euros for the steelbook and 75-80 Euros for the statue :p.

It should have been half the price it is now.

20 for the steel, 30 for the statue
Guess that would've been a fair price.
 
I am concerned with how cheap that matte effect looks on the steel. I bet that's going to be the same with the UK release, for example.

Not good!
 
Steelbook looks like a cheap matte finish....if any steel needed a gloss finish and deserged embossing...it was this one.....the S was crying out to be embossed. Will buy the UK release at a price drop...not worth the current price and i could not care less about the gimmicky past its sell by date of 3D technology.
 
I'm actually quite impressed with the statue, it's definitely nicer looking than the MOS statues both DC Direct and Kotobukiya have done and they were proper statues, not just something bundled in a blu ray CE

In terms of the steel book it's clearly not gloss which is a shame but it doesn't appear to be a cheap grainy matte finish either which is good. Shame we've got such a wait for the UK version :(

I didn't expect anything more than what it is. Warner don't really seem to give a monkeys about steels right now. This was said in the Pacific Rim Taiwan Thread:
Warner has dispute with scanavo hongkong so Warner does not want to release steelbook in asia market.

From Great Gatsby, Man of steel and Pacific rim..

With that in mind I'm not surprised they don't put any effort in. Look at The Dark Knight Rises last year. Warner's biggest release got exactly the same treatment and then was re-released 6 months later. Wouldn't surprise me if they did the same with Superman.
 
I just cancelled my order. The statue looks to cheap to spent so much money on it! I'll only get the Steelbook and will be happy with that
 
Amazon charges you when it's being prepared for shipment.

If you already have an Amazon account in any of the other countries - Europe and Americas (except China and Japan, not sure about India and Brazil), you just need to sign in with the same username and password and your details will be there ;)

Nice set but I'm just interested in the steelbook, loved the movie. :scat:

Yep I used my amazon.co.uk account for USA, Germany, France and Italy amazons x can't wait for mine to arrive x
 
Such a disappointment for the steelbook having a matte finish.The futurepak is actually glossy and doesn't have the text on top of the front cover.hard to believe that its the metalpak that has the upper hand in this release.
