I will think the Star Wars bandwagon will appear when they release 3d versions individually later down the line. This box set is a joke, I love Star Wars, but seriously 1-3 and 4-6 boxsets, given Indy has a individual release, am sure Star Wars will follow suit, especially when Indy makes a heap load.

This is just like LOTR and the normal editions first, followed with extended later down the line to tempt you to double dip. Money making scheme at its finest.

Cover art should be the posters for all steelbooks, with a famous scene on the back, too many charatcers to choose from in the Star Wars universe to pick one for each. Am thinking saber fights are probably most memorable.


I love the artwork. Im not the biggest star wars fan in the world but the films are good. I prefer trilogy box sets over individual releases anyhow.
 
I spotted three of these in That's Entertainment in Lancaster at £35. Not sure if that's a sign of That's Entertainment picking up steels or not but maybe one to look out for.
 
I have now received mine today. The only bad point it has is they made a bit dark. It would look much better if it was brighter. Colours should standout more. They have taken the picture and just slapped it on the steelbook. I do not own this on bluray so I decided to keep this and the Prequel version.

Not impressed with the final product of Star Wars. The colours do not pop like the artwork they posted. Very dull colouring.

that might be unlikely, according to a press release a few months ago
after Disneys acquisition of all things Lucas .. all work on the 3d conversion of the existing 6 movies has been stopped in order for the company to focus on episode 7 and spin offs movies concerning various characters in the SW universe

so only episode 1 got the conversion ..
i think we might have to wait a long time if ever for these versions ..
 
The trouble is Amazon seem to be very stubborn on price drops. That's one thing I will miss about Play.com, they had some incredible deals on Steelbooks at times.
