oh my.. GB on this one? please!

 

[lgans316]

No thanks. Too many identical releases. Happy with the 14.99 Zavvi SB.

 

[urbeenjammin]

a german release as well...

 

[HUBMUSWELL]

So, no embossing or anything special finishing wise...I'll be going for the much cheaper Zavvi one.

Yup, shared run, so not sure if this will even come with a slip to distinguish. Almost 5 quid more expensive and not available online (yet). Not sure how many takers it'll have. Especially considering that Zavvi hasn't sold out yet and it ships worldwide quite cheap!

Would like to see more photos please

Thanks for the pics....easy pass.

 

[Lordpercy]

Thanks for the pics - I'm a huge Star Trek geek and a Japanophile so this is very, very tempting

 

[JohnDoe93]

Is the back printed on this? Looks like it in the pictures...

He said more photos, so i guess he had seen the photos but just wanted more(as i do,lol)

 

[frankfish44]

Nothing special here. Will stick with the European releases. Sticker guys will probably be in for this.

Sticker guys will probably be in for this.

It is nice though If I had a choice between JP and UK at the same price delivered, JP wins for me

Nope, just a j-card. Japanese releases are very, very good about doing back artwork.

 

[snooloui]

Doesn't look like a J-card to me. If the Zavvi exclusive is the same I will cancel because it looks pants. I thought it would definitely have embossed title and border.

I think it's a backing paper, as with the Japanese Evil Dead.

Would like to see more photos please

Yes, the photos in the OP aren't very good but at least they show that there's no slip and no embossing. If I find better pics I'll post them but I think this one is going to be quite scarce. It pretty much sneaked under the radar and has already been in stores for a couple of days, so Japanese collectors might have snapped many of them up. Unless anybody has a contact in Japan willing to go into a Tsutaya branch and pick one up, it's probably going to be pretty tough to get hold of.

Hopefully a Ninja will manage to grab a copy and post some better pics.

I just noticed that the Zavvi and Japanese version have different interior artwork posted

Zavvi

I'd get the version with the Japanese interior artwork.

 

[SteelbookedUp]

I could be tempted if this has different inside art.

 

[blu-steel]

I might even cancel my zavvi pre order as I think it looks pretty cheaply done.
