Old Updates & infos:
NEW UPDATE 8/13/2013:
We have a short update on the finish details for our 2 exclusive Star Trek Into Darkness steelbooks. Both the steelbook in the Villain Edition and the Hero Edition steelbook will have debossed title treatments and be matte finishes. We had some fantastic ideas for the ***8220;special packaging***8221; we promised for the Hero Edition, but unfortunately the time constraints of turning this around in just over a month before the release date meant that none of them were possible. The Entertainment Store exclusive sticker that has been on our previous releases will be on these releases too, and we can only apologise for being able to make the Hero Edition special rather than extra special.

All is not lost though ***8211; some of the special packaging we had planned for Star Trek Into Darkness will be present on our next release, which we will be announcing exclusively via HDN on Tuesday 20th August. You won***8217;t be disappointed, I promise!

PREVIOUS UPDATE:
A stunning 2D and 3D blu-ray plus digital copy steelbook. Limited to 4,000 copies and available exclusively from The Entertainment Store. Finish, embossing, release date and pricing TBC, but we have really special plans for the packaging.

Original infos:From our friends at Entertainment Store in the UK:
The Entertainment Store Boldly goes where other E-tailers cannot

The fastest growing Entertainment E-tailer on the Marketplace, The Entertainment Store, continues its strong exclusive packaging offering in September 2013 with the introduction of 2 2D and 3D Blu Ray Steelbooks for Star Trek: Into Darkness Home Entertainment release.

The limited edition Steelbooks are limited to 4,000 copies each, and will be available to Pre-order from The Entertainment Store on Play.com from midday Friday July 19th 2013.

Since its arrival in March 2013 The Entertainment Store has been working closely with Paramount Home Entertainment and have already teamed up to bring us exclusive Blu Ray SKUs such as GI Joe and Hansel and Gretel but this latest batch of releases look to be the most interesting yet. The E-tailer distributes product directly from the Studio warehouses so the product is guaranteed as authentic and of the highest quality.

Oh boy! Already in the GB's for the Blufans Triple and the MM lenticular. But I just had to get one of these as well. It's by far my favourite cover art.

Will be keeping my Blufans editions sealed, so the ES edition is ideal.

Thanks for the heads up Cymon H.:thumbs:
 
Watching the extras now. I think the problem is because JJ makes sure the extras are so good on his products it's annoying that you have to go on the hunt.

The piece about the volcano is great. To see the footage of a camera helicopter swooping past is amazing.

And like the first film I like JJ's approach to actually filming outside scenes outside. It just looks so much better.
This gives me a lot of faith for his Star Wars.

This may be a dumb question but I see several photos with the ES sticker on the inside, did you guys simply take it off and put it on the inside or under the plastic or did it come that way? When I tried to salvage mine it ripped.

We had to take it off... slowly... but surely... ;)

I think the trick to removing stickers from shrinkwrap is to manipulate/bend the wrap more than the sticker, as the sticker will hold deformations better than the wrap will.
 
Arrived Today, but it's scratched :(

It' looks every bit as good as I thought it would as well. There's no chance of an exchange now that's for sure. Back for a very disappointing refund.

My copy never arrived, my first lost parcel in many months. It had to be this didn't it? :(

That's really bad luck snooloui, sorry to hear that. Having seen your earlier post about how long ES were taking to despatch your copy, I was keeping an eye out to see if yours was going to have similar issues to mine.

We just left it too late, we should have ordered this one sooner. It's now the one that got away, for you literally. ;)

Yep, I was a fool for not pre-ordering :(
 
The inner art has made me notice that they probably didn't compensate for the edges, which is why McCoy's face is cut off. Super distracting and would be interesting if the Blufans release is different.

Unbelievably, nineteen days after I ordered it, look what showed up this morning :oohyeah:

When my German Phaser edition arrives I December looks like I will have a spare "Hero Ship Edition" to trade.

Strangely, 1 of my replacements never arrived, even after my originals finally arrived. That may well turn up.
