Might buy this

 

[Raimi]

Is this pretty? I'm seriously asking. With all these artsy releases I lost my eye for steelbook beauty...

 

[Noodles]

A digibook with similar art (or at least by the same artist) is on its way too FYI...

This looks like Mondo artwork.

 

[StifflersDad]

What a pile of sh*t

 

[Flloydo]

I like the front but could of gone for a different image on the back instead of a different angle

 

[virkia]

At least it's very, very different to the classy steels that have gone before for this title . . . by comparison maybe a bit Mickey Mouse . . . but still not forgetting that it's inspired by original poster art:-


U.K. & S. Korea

[howarmat]

a little different using coloring from recent PA release. I will probably pick it up at some point

 

[BumBum]

Yep - the back should have been different.
Still will put it on my list

 

[InAFalsetto]

Same encodes as the PA versions or nah ?

 

[FN-2187]

You know what?

Why not.

 

[justboy]

At a glance this looks pretty ugly

 

[Aw 83]

PA is enough for me on this title more than satisfied with it.

 

[aLLu]

I like it

 

[larson1977]

I like it a lot. Going to look awesome next to the PA editions

 

[davhyl]

Easy one to skip. I'm very happy with the Plain edition. Those who open and watch the movie may want to check if it will have English subtitles first. I know the German version of The Raid doesn't have them.

 

[Noodles]

I love the design and also love the film, so I'm definitely getting this (if it happens) along with the mediabook to add to my Oldboy collection.

Being a Capelight release and such a popular movie, there's a very good chance the steelbook will have some special finish. I mean if it happens at all.

Is this pretty? I'm seriously asking.

I think it is. Of course the back side is a bit of a wasted opportunity, but other than that, it's looking pretty nice. I especially like the way the hammer is going through the letter "D" in the title on the front.

Looking forward to further developments with this (possible) steelbook release!

It looks decent but not a patch on the PA version IMO.
