Is this not just the same as Zavvis Who Framed Roger Rabbit (which was voted Steelbook of the year on this very forum)???

Nobody made much noise when the (inferior) German version of that surfaced. Even if there was a gap of a year or so in the print run!!!!!

Exactly, this could easily be just another cheap German steelbook using artwork that's already be approved by the studio, we'll have to wait and see exactly what this will turn out to be

Well we already know that a minimum print run is 4,000, so Zavvi's 2,500 always seemed a crock from the get-go. We knew there would still be at least another 1,500 somewhere, and look what we have here... The exact same artwork, complete with English text on a German release!

From what I understand the standard minimum run is 4000 but Scanavo will do lower runs for a price, anyway I don't believe for a minute that a German steelbook run would be limited to the 1500 remaining from some country's steelbook release.

Either it's part of a bigger run and the UK effectively gets just a different J-card or it's a cheap rip-off like Roger Rabbit, we will have to wait for more info.

Wouldn't it be funny if everyone bought the German one, cancelled the Zavvi one, the German one sold out and became the collectors item instead of the Zavvi one

 

[toonminator]

LOL @ Zavvi's fail. Indeed, let's wait for Beetlejuice

Kick Ass 2 had a better german release than UK even though was the same art-work and was announce later.

We will see.

At this price, I think I'm gonna get it, as I wasn't able to preorder the uk one... Do not really care about embossing on this one. Hope for some gloss like on Roger Rabbit

I knew these limited Warner titles weren't going to hold any value. I mean these are Warner we talking bout lol. And these are catalogue titles at that. Name me one limited steel of value they did that wasn't from Asia. It's good for peeps that really want the steel for what it is but if u were looking to make a buck or good trade im sorry. The chances of this being the exact same as the zavvi one(gloss and bossed) are pretty high too.

Sucker Punch german 1st release maybe ;-)

EDIT: saw this was already stated a FEW times

14.99 EUR is a decent price but if you add shipping it works out to be more. Also I prefer English J-card over German ones.

There is literally no fail. At all.

This is a bunch of people whining about now not being able to scalp their 10 copies to people who missed the chance to pre order from zavvi.
