Is it definitely bare metal? It's a bit hard to tell in those photos.

EDIT - That gold looks really shiny in your photo @Naughtius Maximus. Got any closer shots of it?

 

[Naughtius Maximus]

unless someone is happy with me opening their personal copy i can only supply you with sealed shots, sorry

 

[yeslek]

Dispatched. I thought it was quote a good movie, 2 hours went by quick

me too.
its nothing new or special, aside from the no CG thing, and the story/acting is VERY generic, but its works and is a highly entertaining movie.
cant wait to re-watch this

i really enjoyed this movie and was hoping to have it for this weekend but not in the post today

 

[PKAVFC]

That's a Beauty!

ES always seem to nail it... quality over quantity

Was hoping to get mine today but no luck, oh well, fingers crossed for tomorrow

It says the gold is spot glossed in OP!

Lol at "Dangerous driving" in the BBFC advise. Well, duh.

Ah, so it does! I also forgot David's still had the wrapping on before I made my post, so that obviously made it look even shinier.

Here it is! To be honest, it kinda looked better sealed...

Just got mine, it's nice nothing spectacular.

Didn't notice until mine arrived that they've done away with the blue sticker and instead are now printing it on the J Card.

 

[Robbo72]

mine arrived this morning and i really like the steel,its not overly cluttered like some steels.

 

[hayemaker]

Reminds me of the 2 Guns steelbook - mediocre.

 

[kron]

Yeah it is a nice clean steelbook. I like the way eone leave the spine uncluttered - no logo's just the title

 

[lgans316]

Struggling to find the spot glossing on mine. Very disappointed. Going back as not as advertised. Going to remain in stock for ages and possibly drop in price.

 

[DADDYCOOL187]

Damn was hoping that this would have been here today, oh well will have to wait til Monday

 

[Noodles]

I agree with this. Nice, clean steel imo... looks pretty classy with the gold and silver.

mine turned up this morning, yes is nice clean steel. The debossing done well works good with the gold as to spot glossing it is there you just have to hold at an angle in the correct light but it is there.

as too

Going to remain in stock for ages and possibly drop in price.

i would suggest your opinion is your own but if you think a 3d & 2d steel is going to sell for much less than £17.99, i think you will be waiting a very long time imho.

I think it said the artwork was unconfirmed at one point. If that is the final artwork now I'm sure it will look better than the ES Steel even with a printed back. I have already ordered this so I just hope this looks better in hand!

I am 99% sure it will not have a printed back, 98% sure it will have inside art and 95% sure it will be glossy .

Metropolitan is releasing Need for Speed in France, and if I trust their previous steelbooks, it will be great — from Metropolitan I only own The Lord of the Rings trilogy (those were some of their first steels, they have printed backs, they don't do that anymore), The Expendables & The Expendables 2 (there's coherence between the two, they go very well together), as well as the Dredd tinbox (if you ever have to own a tin, this is the one, it's gorgeous ).

It's just too bad that in general they're doing steelbooks of... let's say "average" films . In 2014 they did :

- Crying Freeman.
- I, Frankenstein (3D + 2D + DVD).
- Nurse 3D (3D + 2D + DVD).

Now The Legend of Hercules (3D + 2D + DVD) is released next week, followed by Need for Speed (3D + 2D + DVD) on August 27.

So it the previous releases are any indication (they usually are), it will have very high gloss, back art, inside art, 3D and overall a very nice artwork, indeed miles better than the ES one .
