Star Trek: Into Darkness (3D+2D Blu-ray SteelBook) (Entertainment Store) [UK]
- Thread starter apsmith21
- Start date
Wondering the same thing!
Think we can sure think of it having that ES exclusive Sticker, but that is not that great/speacial at the end...
Embossing/debossing, think others (with the exact same artwork in different countries) would then have that also?
Hope we will get some more Infos or updated Pictures BEFORE they start shipping!!!
Hi all, an update from the team at ES Store:
Thanks DB
...debossed title treatments and be matte finishes
The Entertainment Store exclusive sticker that has been on our previous releases will be on these releases too...
... our next release, which we will be announcing exclusively via HDN on Tuesday 20th August
Maybe they can lower the price then and it will most definitely be "special"
I would've preferred them to just dely this incredible release and give it the cool packaging. Whatever the film they announce on the 20th It wont be as cool in my opinion unless its man of steel which for the love of christ, lets hope it is. 
Thinking about cancelling this now and getting the amazon edition. Unless they drop the price (which I think they should) I probably will. Save me some more money for the August 20th announcement

Feel a bit cheated now if I'm honest. Why promise something if you can't deliver it? It's fine saying sorry but a lot of peopke have preordered it now.
And I was fully expecting a Jack Reacher type full gloss finish for that price. Debossed and matt sounds like an old German budget title!

Sometimes the timing just doesn't work out from the time of planning to release. It's unfortunate, but a reality. The final choices may have nothing to do with not 'wanting' to do certain things with the release, or cost, but rather what is possible between all parties involved. I personally am grateful for receiving some advance notice. But I like this art, and will be remaining in the group buy, because it's still a unique release to me.
Fortunately you can cancel this...For those of us outside the UK, we had to join the GB and are stuck in it....

The fact that the details are changed the group buy hoist will have to give you a option to leave or stay.
Its easy for the group buy hoists just to cancel unwanted copies
It's a shame they couldn't get the special finish sorted for this release but I'm quite intrigued to know what it's going to be and what the next release will be too
Debossed title is still a special finish and I guess the Amazon version will be matte too, so for me this better artwork option is the one that stands out. But I've still got them all on order anyway
Like DB says, I'm glad they mentioned this before release and I personally feel that element of honesty eliminates any foul play on the part of ES to bag extra orders.

I sent an email to ES politley asking if they intednd to reduce the price to reflect the reduced qualitywe're expecting from this release. it at least lets them know we're at least not happy with having to pay the same amount for a less special version.
here's a copy of what i'm sent if you're curious.

I ordered the star trek into darkness hero edition steelbook when it became available.
I was saddened to learn this morning that the extra special packaging you had planned for the release could no longer be done due to time issues. I felt the extra special packaging you had planned made the price of £24.99 seem reasonable despite the large print run so i ordered a copy.
Now the special packaging you had planned is no longer happening I feel the price tag is no longer justifiable. When you consider your current price is a £7 mark up on the standard 3d edition. Where as amzon are selling a steelbook edition for only £2 more then the standard version.
I dont understand why you're charging the same for a less special steelbook than you where charging for the extra special packaging.I must admit i find this unfair and am now reconsidering my order. So I'd like to know if you plan to reduce the price due to the fact the extra special packaging will no longer be included.
