Actual Pics: (Thanks to ETSC & snooloui)

To be fair, the gloss looks way better than the previous photos have shown off, and the black is a nice shade. The front is a bit boring but it's not bad, much better than ID4.

You HAVE to choose your language in the welcome screen otherwise no option to change once you get to the main screen. I've tested it and it does play in Spanish language etc

But platoon is not a zavvi exclusive all the zavvi exclusives that have been limited to 4k have said in the decription

That's not true, there are quite a few that don't mention any details in the listing which Wreck has later confirmed to be 4k.

I get what what karl01 is saying:

- normally zavvi exclusives are 4k and confirmed by wreck either in the OP or somwhere in the thread - but there are a few zavvi exclusives with no confirmation - Rambo and Kill Bill - from what i can remember

(so manny zavvi steels its hard to keep up)

...although everyone assumes they are also 4K, it might be better to wait or ask for official confirmation - as sometimes a retailer exclusive will be more - like the 5K and 8k exclusives Play.com did last year for their Terminator and Prometheus exclusives respectively

i've asked wreck and heres what he said

Wreck said:
I'm pretty sure its 4k, but since I havent asked just figured id get it confirmed first.

90% of any catalog title zavvi does will be 4k. New releases tend to be much more in the UK because 1) they are exclusive (to a retailer) and they (studio) take highest bid on qty ...or 2) they go trade wide and sell more qty collectively.
 
^^ so he's not 100% i guess - that would explain why its not confirmed in the OP?

If wreck was 100% sure like the other zavvi exclusives i'm sure it would be in the OP i think.

Well that's how i see it anyway, until i read the words "4K Confirmed" in bold like he does for all the other zavvi exclsives :cool:
 
I really love this movie and every day I return to this page just to look at the cover to try to convince myself that it´s a great looking steelbook... but so far, I really hate this steel.

Too simplistic, in a very bad way...

Does anyone know if Zavvi amend the price of orders placed at a higher amount ? I Pre-Ordered this at £19.99.
I had a quick look here and over on the Zavvi - Steelbook Retailer Thread but couldn't find anything to say they do/don't.

They will adjust and charge you the lower price when it is shipped.

They will lower it, but if you want piece of mind just order them at £14.99 and cancel the old order.
I did this when they went down to £14.99 last time and 2 days later they went back up to £19.99 on the site.

Thanks both, can't believe I missed this off the product page

"Pre-order Price Promise: Order this product with us today and if we reduce the price between taking your order and the release date, we will charge you the lower price! *terms & conditions apply"

Doh !

I think I'll keep the order as it is to see how it works out.
