Im happy enough with my last Zavvi exclusive of this, which wasn't from that long ago !!

 

[EvilThing]

Already pre-ordered the same German edition - it's only Euro 12.49 at the moment (with delivery to UK works out almost exactly same price ), loving the art for this release - certainly more than that creepy as F**K Vertigo edition Be nice to have a steel for North By Northwest though with embossed Saul Bass titling font!!!

 

[Noodles]

Love the artwork! It's not one of my favourite Hitchcock's though, so I'll wait for a price drop.

 

[steelmybeatingheart]

nice artwork! but we've just had this. there are lots of good Hitchcock's still without steels. looking at the steel releases over the years, you'd think he only made 3 films! steels please for Notorious, Rear Window, Rebecca, Rope, Spellbound, Strangers on a Train, Suspicion... (searches for fingers crossed/prayer emoji)

Well, 4 actually . . . but I get your point.
As for the "golden oldies": fingers crossed Eureka picks up some of those you mention to join LIFEBOAT in their Masters of Cinema line.

As for REAR WINDOW and DIAL "M" FOR MURDER steelbooks I'm somehow more hopeful . . .
. . . although the haters of non-traditional artwork will undoubtedly not be happy going by the reaction to VERTIGO - and to this one to a far lesser extent - despite both similarly non-traditional covers.

I pre-ordered this one, love both the front and back covers. Definitely a display piece in my mind.

 

[Membrane]

Love the artwork!! I will definitely pick this one up.

 

[snowblood]

I'm loving the artwork, ordered as its Hitchcock & a great film.

If they did my favourite Hitchcock film, Rear Window Id go mental. Please let that happen.

Back art is a bit strange.

Why has she got a lone feather sticking out of her 'lady garden' area?

Once you see it you'll not un-see it!!

I'd like something like this for Rear Window:

I so prefer the previous version of this with the full slip. Very happy I snagged that when I had the chance. This just doesn't do it for me.
