I found it on BD. don't know if it's fan made or not, but looks official to me :)
Fair enough mate. It can often be hard to tell, because there are a lot of people out there who are great at designing such things. I've just checked the thread which discusses this release on BD though, and the person that first posted the artwork followed it up by saying "This was the original artwork I uploaded", so a part of me thinks they made it. The following image has also been fan made and posted in the same thread on BD...

Now that artwork I can get onboard with. Think it would complement the 1st steelie just nice! Guess we will have to see what Hmv come out with :ohno:

Then it is a fan made? I liked this artwork :(
We can't say for sure, but I'm very skeptical. Mainly because I don't think HMV have ever had there name printed on a j-card. They usually just slap one of their "exclusive" stickers on the cellophane. Plus the same member on BD also posted the following for the Total Recall steelbook...

Judging by the release from Amazon.de it'll probably be something like this...

That pretty much proves to me that he adds the j-card design himself. He could still be right about the Expendables artwork though, but then again he could be wrong! I guess we'll just have to wait for HMV to confirm it themselves. :)

I was thinking the same thing. This is obviously not official artwork as it would've appeared on HMV's website by now if it was.

True! Although there have been a few instances where they've revealed artwork via Facebook or Twitter before it goes live on their site. I can't see any sign of it on either FB or Twitter though, so all signs point to it being fan made.
 
I asked HMV on their Facebook page if the artwork was ready and I was told not yet, but as soon as it is they'll post it on Facebook and on the site
 
What are HMV playing at? Are they going to bother uploading artwork or are we just supposed to buy it and wait and see what arrives?
