nice edition ! 15€ shipped.. compared to almost 50€ for every asia edition...
Thanks for sharing pics.
To be honest, it's not that bad. I was expecting it to be worse.
Nice debossing and glad there's no border
I actually really like it. Surprised! At this point, I'm just glad to fill the gap, even though it doesn't match the others perfectly.
but it's no grail for me, thats sure
wasn't it @virkia who started the grail subject? I don't think anybody really claimed it would/will be. I'm just happy it looks good, hopefully mine is delivered shortly as the postie hasn't been yet.
looking forward to receive mine although zavvi hasn't shipped my copy yet ( my order still says awaiting stock ...)
Looks decent. Still no dispatch for me though
How did zavvi get it massively wrong with embossing and border? So useless
Looks really good with a debossed title and I love how the one person who thought this was going to be a Grail is not happy with it and everyone else loves it lol.
Great Grail banter today

I like it, but unfortunately did not order, because I am fed up with zavvi games (all extremely limited steels coming up again for a much cheaper price). Maybe I have to pay a bit more for this release then...
this looks awesome.. dont know what ppl expect.. bet a fac sticker would change it to best steelbook ever seen
Still the best Rambo release to date in my opinion. Love it.
Mine should be getting dispatched soon hopefully.

Haven't received mine - maybe tomorrow - so my comments below are based solely on the pics kindly provided by other members.
You ask what people expected and speaking for myself I expected a LOT MORE - something similar to what I understood the "creative" blurb at the top of this thread to mean !
In other words:-
- Framing border with Rambo within the frame (as pictured in the mock-up) yet at the same level as the frame giving him the 'appearance' of being embossed
- De-bossed background with the "RAM" of the title de-bossed to match the flat "BO' on the de-bossed background.
". . . the border is de-bossed . . . " - No it ain't. No border that I've seen on a U.K. steelbook is de-bossed. The border is the frame and the frame/border, when present, is "embossed" by its very nature and anything not at the same level as the frame is de-bossed.
" . . . so that other features within the border can be embossed . . ." - No sign of that that I can make out ! What embossing and where ?
". . . the border won't be as defined as in the pack shot" - Too right ! "not as defined" as in "bloody invisible" ! - there is NO friggin' border.
If this blurb is gobbledygook, or if I've simply misread it, it would be awesome if someone could explain the meaning of it and how it relates to this steelbook.
That being said, this is still THE "Rambo" (2008) steelbook to own . . . at least until/if something with some class comes along . . . and maybe I shouldn't really grumble for the under 12 quid paid . . . and I suppose the old maxim applies here as to other stuff:-
"You pay peanuts, you get monkeys" and it's clearly a case of "You get what you pay for".
As to whether this will be a very in-demand (Grail) steelbook in the years to come who is to say, but stranger things have happened in this weird old world of ours.

Film Arena don't create or include exclusive stickers for their FAC line (thus far) so I'd have to disagree...
Got mine today, love it! Hopefully Tucker & Dale is as nice tomorrow
