Love this film and really want to buy it as a steel, just can't give them my money for that turd of a front cover! They should make the back the front and emboss the hatch effect and then they'd get my money! :scat:
 
this is a first for zavvi, isnt it? showing actual pics.

i dont like the colours, they look wrong. the turtles are suppose to be green, not yellow.

and the back doesnt go with the film.

I think after advertising so many releases and describing them incorrectly, having to refund 10% adds up! This way we get to see the goods, so they cover themselves and to be fair, it covers us too.

It's a shame it currently looks matte, not glossy :hilarious:
 
Yeah, but displaying the goods might endanger their business as sales will not be made. But when they don't advertise the goods many people take the punt which means selling a £17.99 steelbook with several 10% off discounts equate to nothing in the swing of things. Even when we're disappointed with it we can't all be assed to return it due to Zavvi's conveniently dissatisfactory service, which benefits them greatly. *dons tin foil hat*
 
I'm assuming this release is going to be delayed, seeing as it hasn't gone live yet for preorder. That's a shame. Not the best art it could be, but I'm not as disappointed as most seem to be about this one.
 
I feel like I should have seen this movie when I was little and I recognise the cover but I can't remember a single thing about it. I might be confusing it with something else.
The art is decent but I too think the back should be the front.
 
If Zavvi think they are releasing this SteelBook only three weeks after making it live to pre-order, then they are seriously having a laugh! I ordered this ages ago from Speedyhen via PLAY.com, and they are adament that they are A) still getting stock of these; and B) the release date is going to be October 13th!

One of these companies is lying to us!

I had an order with SpeedyHen from aaaaages ago too but cancelled it based on Zavvi allegedly having it as an exclusive, and the fact that SpeedyHen post in bubblewrap mailers....

However with Zavvi's recent show, a bubblewrap mailer would be nice! :hilarious:

Don't forget that some previous Zavvi "Exclusives" became available from a number of other places after a certain amount of time (Zatoichi and 13 Assassins spring to mind) so it may well be that BOTH are telling the truth.

Zavvi may well have it as a timed exclusive and it may then turn up elsewhere further down the line. Though I do agree that the odds of this turning up in the next month from Zavvi when it isn't even up for pre-order do seem slim.
 
Oh god it gets worse...black and white inside art??? The title on the BACK but not the front??? At least they're finally giving us in-hand photos, that's a plus, even if it's of a matte steel and not the proposed glossy one.
