Can't believe I hadn't PO'd this, grabbed at Amazon

 

[huggy2k4]

Come on amazon ship these early if you've got them please..... I just don't understand why this got delayed yet the amaray released on time and stock was sent to some (if not all) suppliers. I really was looking foward to watching the remaster before going to see the reboot.

if the spine title is reverse then i will stick my old steelbook

 

[Stash]

The artwork is nice but the 4K transfer wasn't done as good as it could have been. Quite disappointing.

 

[Blu-devil]

Think I'll stick with the first one complete with remastered disc.

 

[MaxG93]

Just pre-ordered for 15.50, over 27 USD :/ really hope the price drops before shipping

I'm not OCD but reversed spine is pretty annoying... when you're trying to organize them on the shelves it's a mess, even you flip it into the other direction so you can read the title along with other steelbooks but the studio or blu-ray logos are still upside down...

Well it would get annoying if you sit there looking at your steels all the
Live long day..
but for me I just turn it upside down and try and move on with
My life..yeah it's a pain
But it ain't gonna put me off a nice steel,look at some of the
French and German steels..

I don't quite understand why a so called "up-side-down"-spline would be such a problem. Never realized that there should be a "correct" direction of spline. I mean it's not like it's mirrored or reversed, which would be a real manufacturing error.

Splines without title are MUCH WORSE.

Could not agree more

Giggity...

Very nice Steelbook. Finish is kinda glossy with some shiny areas

 

[funkydamo]

I cancelled mine as I don't think the artwork is that great, and the spine topped it off.
gone for the US amaray, as it was way cheaper and will take up less shelf space.
cancelled rocky too, as I hear the remaster is bad.
hopefully this is a one off regards the spine, for me, id rather have no title than an upside down title.

Nice job on this...I'll try to pick up an open copy...The new 2014 one is already on pre-order and I've got the first release...

 

[rj531]

Looks good!

 

[akki]

good SB,i have bought one on amazon.UK

 

[thewoe]

After seeing those pics I've placed my order with amazon. Its a gorgeous looking steelbook, looking forward to seeing the new remaster too.

Im not usually a slip collector but i love the little slips fox put on there titles, like with the xmen, and this. They look awesome.

 

[Robbo72]

Just finished watching my new copy and the PQ and sound are better than the 1st UK release,the steel is nice also with a glossy finish and artwork inside.
So overall a good purchase

 

[AmarD1981]

So is this definitely a gloss finish? I mean a real proper gloss finish?
Haven't see a any pics of this which fill me with confidence that it is?!?!
