Slip Covers are so two years ago, lol :)

I want them to get more steelbook exclusives
 
These are AWESOME!!! Will definitely be having a UK buddy of mine picking up a few of these for me!!!

They remind me of the MGM 90th Anniversary slips here in the states.

If it was on different films a lot of these people have already paid all the money for steelbooks of them so re-releasing them again seems silly.
 
Thanks, @G:Box! Yeah, these editions pretty much suck and even that Kong is just okay... but I'll have to buy it anyway. :D

And @Flash, there are a LOT of people out there who love slipcovers. Some even prefer them to SteelBooks. If there's a SteelBook you want and it hasn't been released yet, you should go check out and post in the SteelBook Wish List section.

These will probably be double dips for a lot of people. There is only Dazed and Confused and American Gangster that I don't own on steelbook (or blu ray at all) that I would actually want (I have the Big Lebowski digibook, and don't want King Kong or Blues Brothers)

But I won't be double dipping myself for these, though I'll probably pick up the two I don't have, as 2 for £10 is good value anyway.
 
@G:Box Thanks buddy! Not to crazy about these either! But that King Kong Edition, its needs to be in my collection! :cool:

Come to papa! :naughty: :p Now I need someone from the U.K to help me out! :thumbs:

A few of these look pretty cool, some of the artworks are a little strange though. Psycho and American Gangster look decent.
 
Pretty neat Scarface one there. looks like rating logos are printed on slips tho.

I think these look pretty cool! Love the Psycho one, that is a must buy for me!! @mlmaier84 Checked with my local store and they are on sale now.

Will be heading off to HMV later today and see what they've got! ;);)

I know I mean I prefer steelbooks but if something doesn't have one I'm all about the slipcover :)

I just do wish that some films that haven't been released before get this special treatment

I hear ya. I'm sure most of your favourites are bound to receive a SteelBook eventually. It seems like there's one being released for almost every title these days. In the meantime, though, the slipcover route is always a great route to take. Some slipcovers have finishing that tops some SteelBooks any day of the week. It's all a matter of personal preference. :)

Anyway, back on topic... I wonder who thought it'd look good to have New York coming out of the top of Kong's head? :hilarious:
