SteelBooks™ with Unique Embossing/Debossing

I thought It would be cool to have a list of all the Blu-ray Steelbooks with unique or intricate embossing/debossing. The master list of embossed/debossed steelbooks is here

What do I mean by "unique embossing?" I mean a Steelbook that is different from the normal square boarder with an embossed/debossed design different from the norm, i.e. just the title. A good example would be Jurassic Park Trilogy (DE) or Hunger Games D12. This would also include Steelbooks with embossing/debossing on both sides.

What do I mean by "intricate embossing?" I mean a Steelbook which may or may not have the square boarder but has some very detailed embossed/debossed design. Example: Iron Sky (DE/NL) or again Jurassic Park Trilogy (DE).

Many Steelbooks will fall under both categories, so I will just keep one list and not separate ones.

THE LIST:
- Aladdin (UK Zavvi exclusive)
- Avengers, The (Europe/Australia)

- Withnail and I (UK Zavvi exclusive)
- Zimmer 1408 (DE)

+ 2 sided
* 3 levels of embossing/debossing


Here are some that I thought were marginal. What do you guys think?

- The Dictator (DE MM exclusive) This one would be unique because they used the square frame as a frame
- Jurassic Park Trilogy (US/CA)


Any others?

does anyone know where I can get a copy of Django Embossed? I have the US verision and it is ok but not embossed and I really like the Embossed steelbooks
 
Another one to add to the list: how about The Devil's Double (NL) - embossed all over the front.

Thanks! Added!





Surely Lion King Taiwan should be added to the list? Practically everything on the front and the slip is either embossed or debossed

It's actually already on the list. One of the best IMO.

I also added a * to designate Steelbooks with three levels of embossing/debossing. Cloverfield and T2 KR are the only two I think.

Finding Nemo UK should apply to that. Like in the shark teeth area

It's not. Bruce's mouth and eyes are on the same level as the background and his teeth are the same level as the title. In some pictures it looks like three levels (see Wreck's pre-release pics) but I remember specifically checking this when I got mine. Same with Jurassic Park DE. It looks like three levels until you look closely.
