If the German one with lenticular cover is the same it'll look amazing.

I'm pretty sure you can't have a lenticular magnet on an embossed steel.

I have Dispatching now
I usually have dispatched by now
Last time Oblivion was not dispatched until the Monday night and did not get delivery until the Wednesday

I hope its dispatched today so I get delivery on Tuesday
I wont like if amazon have changed dispatch dates to Monday instead of Sunday as I always got delivery on Tuesday with new releases

Just got my despatch email

Me too - literally just a couple of mins ago! Prior to that, status was still "Dispatching Now" (as it had been for about the past 48 hours!), but it's now showing as "Dispatched"

Can't wait to receive and watch this... :movie:

Just a head up. Not steelbook related but they are showing this film in may at the Albert Hall with a full orchestra and choir playing the entire score live. Well worth the 16 pound ticket. Can't wait!!

A quick pic to show the embossing a bit.

Hope you guys fare better with the spine slashing. Looks like this could be another bad release for that.

That's too bad. Are you gonna contact amazon about it? Curious to see how they handle it and hopefully the slasher did not affect whole batches of these.

Got a pic of the slash? I can't see on my sealed copy ... might be a subtle thing or might be totally obvious.

I've already sealed up both copies for a return and refund. It wasn't subtle though - the slash mark went right through the plastic and scored the steel itself. Probably done while unsealing the boxes in Amazon's warehouse.

Hopefully not too many batches affected - depends on how many boxes Edward Scissorhands opened...

Oof! I can see it on the left there. Luckily I still have Prime for another week so can sort a replacement quickly if mines slashed, but that's really annoying! Reminds me of earlier in the year (Skyfall).

Ok, then my copy doesn't look like it has been affected which is

Dispatched
Looks like Amazon UK have stopped dispatching on a Sunday to Rep Of Ireland

Star Trek: Into Darkness Release Date Monday dispatched Monday
The X-Files: Fight the Future/ I Want to Believe Release Date Monday dispatched Monday

Last week Oblivion Release Date Monday dispatched Monday

All previous new releases I had from Amazon with a release date Monday were dispatched on the Sunday

Anyone else from Rep Of Ireland having the same not getting new releases dispatched on the Sunday

Not if it continues to be OOS though.

Though I do think Amazon might get more stock of this one.
