Superman II UK SteelBook isI just got mine! It’s awesome! I was so worried about the shipping from Amazon but this is the first time I’m amazed by the great packaging,after all it it an expensive item….I thought someone said the superman 2 was a matte finish, at first glance it didn’t seem that way but I was in a hurry so I didn’t check properly…any how; I love it!
Glad I ordered from DVD Store in Italy. They wraped the box set in thick bubble wrap and shipped in a sturdy box. The Euro box sets come with special white boxes, so my box set was basically double boxed. The white box and actual box set arrived in flawless condition. The Italian box set is the same as the US one with English certificate of authenticity.View attachment 554754
Here’s how mine was packaged. I don’t notice any dents, but I’ll have to give it a more thorough check later. The seal wrap is ragged - tears all over the place. No Superman II spine slash, though.
I don’t blame you. I almost always import steelbooks from Europe these days.Glad I ordered from DVD Store in Italy. They wraped the box set in thick bubble wrap and shipped in a sturdy box.

The Superman 2 steel in the Euro box set is spot gloss, but the 5th is completely matte as you stated. I guess it was an intentional choice. I ordered the US box set from Amazon, but it shipped out late and won't arrive until Friday. I'm scared of how they shipped it. Not sure if I will keep it just because the goodies steel is full gloss. My Italian box set arrived in flawless condition - even the plastic is perfect.Actually looks like 5th steelbook from US is full gloss and European one is matte, so there is another difference as well.
Gave mine a good look last night without opening it. There are a bunch of tears across the seal on the front, which I think resulted from the set bouncing around in the large shipping box and could have cause the large paint chip on Superman II, a spot with a bunch of scuffs across part of the spine on the collectibles steelbook, and a small corner dent on the collectibles steelbook. I'm returning it. It's not huge damage, but for a $140 dollar set I'm returning it as much on principle for how it was sent to me (which could have caused some of those issues). No big deal, though. I'll survive without these steelbooks.View attachment 554754

Is anyone sitting on one of these that can help out a quiet, but longtime Canadian member? I'm still in disbelief that the run is seemingly over 13K, and yet I still somehow missed out on getting one.
USA release Unboxing
Not my Video
Looks nice, alas I was never a fan of the Superman movies (possibly because I could never forgive turning back time by reversing the direction earth spun. Ever at a young age that was bridge too far.
Unless you want a North American box set, I'd recommend dvd-store.it for a box set. The Euro box sets come in special white boxes. DVD Store wraps it in thick bubble wrap and ships in another box. You would likely get free shipping and pay $148 Euros total. When I order from them, they always give a partial refund when your order ships. I was initially charged $25 Euros for shipping, but they refunded me $27 Euros when my order shipped.Is anyone sitting on one of these that can help out a quiet, but longtime Canadian member?

Mine came in the original shipping box inside an Amazon box with padding.View attachment 554754
