Here's something that's made me very happy. From the PR company -

Latest update from Zavvi

Still waiting on finalised artwork.

The finishes are overall matte varnish, except for a spot UV gloss on Mark and Dwayne on the front cover.

There’s a pantone red on their names on the front cover, and emboss on the title treatment.

Confirmed as 1000 units only and from the traffic and questions we are getting, think this will only last a couple of days at the most before selling out.

Bound to happen though

Folks, lets please keep the ongoing Ebay discussions out of the release threads. Thanks!

May be someone getting them from sopmeone in UK, or whatever, always happens...

 

[ghost1]

When you limit something to only 1000 they should also limit to 1 per customer then that would stop that from happening, it just winds me up that i live in the uk and couldn't get ONE and someone in denmark is selling two, rant over.

I reckon what'll happen is, a few will sell for a lot then everyone will put their one up on ebay because of they think it'll sell for a lot and then because of competition they will sell for around 25/30 quid. Remember when Jack Reacher sold for alot? Nobody will want to keep this bad steelbook in my opinion

agreed

since its already stated this will be a shared 4k print run, what exactly makes zavvi's so special ? just cause they received 1k ? makes no sense... the artwork is lackluster and the film is "entertaining" at best. Its all hype right now

It's certainly dividing opinion

i can definitely see that but most "limited" runs always causes some type of mass hysteria

Hysteria is the right word

Seeing as I've ordered this, I suppose I'd better watch it at some point, just to see what all the fuss is about

Nah, don't and keep the illusion that it might be good...

 

[matthewtheunicorn]

If you missed out dont pull out the 1 per customer nonsense. Just deal with it. Or cry about it loud enough. Worked last time for the butt hurts.

Woah, woah, woah man calm down. Remember what we're talking about, steelbook collecting. It's just a bit of fun

This is now being listed as a grail.

[MENTAL MAGPIE]

Grail?You can buy the same exact steel from Czech Republic. Grant it, it was not bought in the UK, but it's the same thing.

True but the UK slip is what makes this collectible. So for those intending to keep this sealed it will be unique from all other releases.
