I've just put my boxset on eBay, if it sells, I'll order the steelbook, if not then I'll keep my boxset.

Looks good, but there must be a better inside artwork picture from the trilogy. I already own the UK boxset, so I'll just keep the boxset, because it would be a pricey double-dip.

I just pre-ordered this steel. I think it looks awesome with this simple clean look.

I thought about it and finally made a decision This is going to be in my blu ray shelf...definitely!

I kind of wish it had Francis Ford Coppola's signature on the bottom front like it has on the the regular amaray edition but I'll still be happy without too.

YES, exactly what I was thinking! It would be a super nice touch to have this but I guess that ship has sailed. Nice as it is too.

Plain back. Boring. Might cancel this.

I like this and agree less is more but I still can't help but feel a little under wealmed by it. Think i would be happy to keep my box set.

+1 no imagination in this design at all.

 

[Sigill]

Looks a little dull too me too, not a fan of the plain back. I will give this one a miss.

Price is what's keeping me away, I know they are some of the best films of all time (1 and 2 anyway) but, it's almost as much as a new release MIB trilogy is only slightly more.

Are these likely to sell out fast?

should have put inside picture on the back, with various pics from the 3 movies on the inside like the inside art of the scarface steelbook

 

[mragustus]

might cancel, crap looking steel for £27 could get the normal box set with much better artwork for a lot less

 

[dvdjunkie]

Personally this is one of the worst steelbooks to be released. I like the inside artwork which is it's only redeeming feature imho. I seriously dislike the colour choice, maybe the red would look deeper in person but this shade looks crap. I won't be buying this.

Missed opportunity from Play. Very plain, boring artwork.

I will be keeping my 5-Disc DVD UK SteelBook release. It puts this one in the shade.

i actually like the artwork a lot

a movie like the godfather does not require any fancy or blinged out artwork

It does require some artwork though, not just a title on a plain background

 

[lgans316]

The artwork may please some on pics but if it turns out to be matte finish, I am sure it will disappoint many.

I think you hit the nail on the head there, it is a missed opportunity.
