Just noticed these say embossed titles (would be better debossed) and no mention of gloss
 
I know that but that's the info Zavvi have it just copied here

Its not an issue anyway as its known the steelbooks are gloss finish and a debossed title

Just went back a page and seen this post.

So are they definately debossed and gloss?

What a shame Disney and Fox could not come to an arrangement to release ultimate editions of these films with the original versions and whatever notable version (Special Edition, DVD + Blu Ray editions, etc.) and a heck ton of extras but nope, just slap those existing discs into new packaging and profit off the new movie without spending a penny.

And it's a shame too the poster artwork has to settle to being on the back. Those would be awesome front cover worthy steels. I just REALLY hope that whatever steelbook Episode 7 produces, it does not make these ones, especially if they decide to make a poster in vain of the other movie posters.

OH WELL, guess we'll just have to wait for Disney to buy 20th Century Fox then.... XD

I know I was merely telling people the stuff that was on the earlier boxset that people were discussing in comparison to these bare bones steels by the look of it ;)

That's absolutely rubbish that we get no extras.
So you pay more for the steelbooks and get less discs than the cheaper box set and no special features! Shocking
