Former HMV exclusive:

Spoiler

***Several members have stated that per HMV, pre-orders have been cancelled.

Word of caution from an UK HDN Member about HMV (thanks VRob98)

People should just be aware of 2 things:
1) If you receive a damaged or faulty copy from now on, you will not receive a replacement or refund
2) If they charge your card and are then unable to fulfil your order, you will not be refunded.

The way a company operates whilst under administration is quite different to how it operates normally, and certain consumer rights are suspended. If anything goes wrong you would have to apply to the administrator or claim against your credit card issuer.

I'd encourage everyone who has orders in with HMV to consider the above, as I'd hate to see anyone here lose their money in all of this.

I just asked Zavvi on Twitter if they will be getting the Skyfall steelbook and they replied saying that "it is very likely we will be in the near future".

Hoping it might be like looper where both amazon and zavvi have it.

So have hmv cancelled the sale of this for good?

A quick flick through the previous threads will help you decide......Not holding my breath, that's for sure! Looking elsewhere now...

If the UK doesn't release the steelie I shall just get the amaray

 

[Bobthesub]

I must be the only person not that bothered about this...I saw the film, it was enjoyable enough but not one Id buy, but then I dont own any other Bond films

...It is strange however that such a popular film in a long running franchise that would surely sell a lot hasnt been snapped up by another seller in the UK, maybe because the steelbooks look like they are the same worldwide the stock originally put aside for the UK release has been absorbed into the other countries allocations

I kinda feel the same, but that's because I wish they'd kept the original place holder art of Bond diving while wielding his gun. Its such a potent image and I feel it would've looked superb at the heart of any self-respecting collector, whereas the final design is good but it doesn't grab me quite as much.

We'll see, maybe when a retailer is cast for the UK release I'll finally make up my mind, but otherwise it'll be the slipcover version for me... heresy!

I only want it to sell the case on its own - I have a slot to fill in the Blu Ray Bond 50 set

 

[TakingYoSteelz]

Ditto - but think ill get the JB HiFi steel plus amaray to fill my Bond 50!

 

[goufcustom]

I hope Amazon would get the rights for this one, so I can place this instead of German's, it'd be cheaper

did anyone else hear that daniel craig would like robert pattison to replace him once he's done playing bond.

 

[Twizted328i]

I heard that idris elba is rumoured to take the role on he is apparently favourite for bond in bond 24 aka devil may care

I thought Daniel Craig had signed on for another 2 or 3 after Skyfall

 

[Twizted328i]

Apparently he thinks he is too old for another one lol but you never know ay?

i've heard that too but I'd be interested to see in what direction it would take bond. I know I might get slated by some for saying this but I think daniel craig may well be the best bond, and I think connery and moore were cracking.

I saw a documentary on Sky where Moore says that Daniel Craig is his favourite Bond.

 

[lgans316]

Rob Patz will be the new bond in The Vampire Who bit me.

 

[Scarface]

my fav was pierce then moore but i think pierce at least had another bond movie in him, he was mad that his contract got cut.

Tarantino went into talks to do Bond and brought the idea of doing Casino Royale, and he always wanted Brosnan and not Craig. The studio took the idea of doing Casino Royale and sacked off Tarantino
