Yeah, no rush on this one. There've been a few too many generic lookalike slips from Korea recently.

Looks like it'll be in stock at Kimchi for quite a while anyway, seeing as their checkout system isn't working!

 

[Soundeath]

I don't understand something, according to the photo both KR sites have it has the standard UK slip. If this is going to be just like the Korean LOTR trilogy that were same as the Czech P ones, maybe I should wait for real photos or just give up on this.

Kimchidvd missed out on the order due to check out problems

Made the order with K-Steelbook instead

 

[earthscope]

Passing on this as I am sure it will be another bland slip going on recent form. Plus as DJ already pointed out print runs seem to have definitely increased of late.
Sticking with UK on this....

I havent seen this movie, is it good ?:movie:

 

[blu-steel]

Staying away from most Asian releases going forward. Too floooded. Nothing is rare anymore.

 

[Real Steel]

I'm gonna skip this for now, preordered the Taiwan version and that should suffice for the time being 'well until I see some real pictures of the slip'

Besides somehow the print-run on most of the latest releases from Korea has been increased significantly as most are still in stock, either that or ppl are not buying them blindly anymore so it's safe to say that this will be around after release date, if not then it's all good

Increased print runs coupled with ramped up prices. I'm glad collectors are resisting now so the studios and retailers would know they cannot keep milking us.

Still no updated photo showing what the slip will look like(will it even have one?)

here is actual steelbook package

the slip looks good to me. Today I have to buy this

The background art to match the steelbook makes a huge improvement over the plain colored ones they usually provide. Not sure why they couldn't do this in the first place. Now for IM 3....

I asked paramount to change the slip design to match with steelbook and image on the slip.

They just have done first nice try (matched with steelbook)

I hope they will put more effort to make slip better in next time.

Looks good Choi .
Thanks for the pics

 

[VRob98]

Hmm, same slip as every other country. No advantage over the UK or Taiwan versions really, both of which look less cluttered. I don't see the point in having a 'continued art' slip and then breaking it up with a bright blue banner.

UK version and US metalpak covers it for me on this title.

 

[Real Steel]

Should do away with that extra banner at the top centre of the slip. It breaks the continuity between the steelbook's artwork and the slip's.

Just cut it...

 

[ash333]

That huge sticker on the top front does not look good to me. Going to stay with the TW edition.

 

[earthscope]

Another generic slip from Korea again...!!

Glad I skipped this, plus the blue banner in the middle of the slip I can do without.

UK is fine for this steel. Plus being that it should have been glossy not matte! Money saved...

 

[rodtp]

You know what? I haven't ordered any steel for a while, and I just decided I like the Korean version. The movie was good, price-wise it's working out same as the UK one. Ordered!

 

[GenPion]

It looks the same as the UK steel. Unless this is matte instead of glossy? Can't quite tell from the pics. The UK one is great and costs less so I ordered that one.
