These arrived this morning.

Initial reaction this morning when these arrived

All 3 are title embossed with embossed frame except for Starship Troopers.

I gather people are not liking the design and interior to The Rocketeer, but since it is not out on blu ray here (U.K.), I guess I am lucky to get a copy at all.

Hope everybody gets there's soon, if you are still waiting.

Have fun to those who have

:movie:

the title of the movie on the side is totally different from the from cover. Wonder Why is that.. I love the original front lettering. Amazing nonetheless

Mine arrived damaged. Slight bend on the back which is a shame as I really like this steelbook.

Today's Disney/Touchstone Haul.

Not overly impressed with these, to be honest. I've taken some light intensity photographs to try and show that the horrible Warner UK Premium Collection Range finish (remember the one where you apply light and the image disappears) has resurfaced.

I'm heading back to the US next week - I wonder if I'll arrive before Starship Troopers?

I agree the spine art is a little odd, but I can always stick a custom spine over it. The a debossed title works for me and it's region free, I'm happy!

Nope, I thought I checked the previous page but I didn't and missed the inside artwork shot, very happy with this steelbook apart from the spines font, can't wait to get back to England and check out all my new steels, it's going to be like Christmas!

Thanks for this picture.

I thought that finish was a once-off mistake.

Print quality seems very poor !

 

[MrKrabs2013]

looks like this have the same print quality (blue metallic effect) like
the premium collection steelbooks ?
i don't hope it

I really like this movie but this steelbook looks nothing special. It would have looked great in full gloss imo so that's a shame, although the debossed title is a nice touch. Will have to pass on this unless it gets a nice price reduction

 

[hayemaker]

It looks cheap, the pictures of this are not good and Zavvi are likely to have an awful lot of these on their hands for a while.

Received mine today. Opened it up because the disc was loose inside but the two streaks present on the disc rubbed off with a clean cloth.

I like the look and finish of the Steelbook. Sure it could have been better but no complaints here.

 

[Azz]

Will it be the same transfer as original bluray, sound upgrade?

Yeah I reckon they will. Love this movie but I ain't buying this steelbook, it looks awful. Getting frustrated with Zavvi, they should be killing it with these steelbooks. The disc inside these catalogue releases is worth next to nothing so spend some money on the case and make it quality, then they will fly out. They are shooting them selves in the foot putting out these inferior quality steelbooks. Shame

 

[Eldorado]

Honestly, the picture on the cover looks like it was made from a photocopy of a good-looking steelbook.

 

[MacLeod]

If it makes you feel anybetter Zavvi are selling the standard non steelbook version for £19.95

 

[BluSteel2012]

For some reason this wave look much better with the camera flash on.
