Damn ugly steelbook. The "Al Pacino" credit is misplaced. Plus, why 2x the Tommygun? Can't recall Pacino using one of these.

Leaving this one to the scalpers. Good luck buying up 10 copies of this turkey.

What a fecking mess, title and art looks like the original Scarface and then they add Al's name at the bottom lol
They really should hire some people with actual talent than these marketing hacks the Studios love to use.

I'm happy enough with my cigar box edition
That Steelbook is done well

The pop art steelbooks some Sony ones have been nice with a few that was not

The Fox and Universal range of pop art is beyond terrible they are bad

This really is a woeful steelbook. I came here just to make sure I wasn't going mad, regarding that Tommy Gun. I'm glad others have confirmed that at no point in the film does he use a Tommy Gun. This kind of lazy, sloppy art really makes this my tip for worst steel of the year and it's only Feb.

I recently watched the 1932 version of Scarface, and naturally because that is pretty much period set, Antonio "Tony" Camonte (this films Tony Montana) does use the Tommy gun. I think someone on the steelbook planning team got a little muddled up between the two movies.

I'm guessing the graphic designer never actual watched the film And neither the people who approved the Artwork

Fail by the Studio

 

[Obi Wan Dandobi]

Did they mess the original version up with the Al Pacino one? Love this film but that is a no go!

sold out, just like The Great Wall.....strange

sold out, just like The Great Wall.....strange

Great Wall steelbook is limited to only 500 in the UK that's why that sold out quickly

Scarface print run in UK is limited to 1,000

Even though I agree scarface artwork is bad it's still a very popular film and not surprised it has sold out with print run only 1,000
A co worker new to steelbooks in past year pre ordered and I asked why as the artwork is terrible he replied he don't have a steelbook of the film and is why he ordered

Very popular films always sell with re releases

You can though expect this to come back in stock due to cancellations

This shows just how much care they take when choosing art sometimes. Quick 30 second flick through Scarface related images - that'll do - send it down to manufacturing

 

[Mobley]

Easy pass for me, already have 2 different steelbooks of this film.

This will be spot glossed with embossed title apparently according to steelbook.com

You can guarantee the steelbooks with the worst art will always get the best treatment

This one is spectacularly awful. Do they think we buy anything in metal?

Back in stock if anyone interested
