Mine arrived yesterday. For £16 it was worth a punt.

The only other steel I have of this is the play.com which is a million times better.

This edition is probable destined to be put on the shelf and forgotten about. Who knows, in 50 years people might be scrambling for a copy.

^ Yes and no . . . for 8 quid it would be "worth a punt".

Hadn't realised it has de-bossing though "This Steelbook has debossing in places"

A closer look at the German steelbook (same as ours):-
Very cool how they've combined the Tommy gun - as an homage to the original SCARFACE from 1932 - with the Miami skyline.
With its gorgeous "Shaun of the Dead" rich postbox red colouring and large de-bossed white title . . . all combine to add a touch of quality to the product.
. . . and, yes, we all know Tommy guns were not used in the 1983 film but they add a timeless feel that goes better with the sharp 1930s style three button cuff suit on the cover . . . and what's more, that Miami skyline could not have been added so successfully to the barrel of this:-

Oh jesus, I didn't realise the Tommy gun was on the back as well. You'd think they'd want to draw attention away from the wrong gun being used, not rub it in your face

You guys know I can't stand this arty farty pop art nonsense anyway - but this really takes it to another level
