Just had a quick look at the Bristol Palace and you can imagine that the art director had this one more in mind than any other that I can see.
Beautiful exterior although the interior of this 4 star "could do with some work" to put it politely.

You would think that with a Czech hotel as the possible main inspiration for the model that one of those fancy Czeck steelbooks is in the offing

sooo.. when's the pre-order?

good question so far we have had no info from anyone its like guess the live date???
wish staff could actually go ask some of there zavvi "contacts" it would be nice to know or it end up just going live and we will be lucky to find out maybe 30 mins before as has happened with some other zavvi releases in the past

[Flloydo]

i think this will be live next weekend. Just a guess tho

 

[virkia]

Literally took me 5 seconds to find on Google.

It's the thought that counts
I mean, you could have just written "Google it yourself " . . .

 

[Misterlovier]

I'll probably take this zavvi's one.

Cover is perfect. It IS the release one-sheet poster. You can't be better than that.
And if you have the Criterion Wes Anderson series- you just have to double dip!
I have to triple dip myself, because I already have the Red Kimchi Edition!

This is half a blind buy for me, watched half of it in university earlier this year but had to leave class & never saw the end. Enjoyed what I saw & love the look of the steel.

any discount code? thanks guys

I was JUST checking that! The old ones definitely NOT working...(zvc5)
We need a new one!

My only reservation with this is that the credits are so small that they probably won't print very clearly. Apart from that, £15.99 is a good price and I'm happy with the art.
(would obviously prefer the mountains and tree art to wrap around the spine and on to the back neatly too).

ZVC5 - added yesterday - good until the 31st December, 2015.

Works fine - 'Last Knights' steelbook showing in my basket @GBP 9.49 (from GBP 9.99) which is the same price give-or-take as the best Amaray price (GBP 9 on Amazon).

Didn't work on Back to The Futures when I tried plugging it in. I think it only works on certain ones....

Works fine on 'The Muppets' - GBP 14.24 from 14.99.

Works fine on 'The Muppets' - GBP 14.24 from 14.99.

Yeah, it is selective. It worked on Muppets, but not on Hitchhiker's Guide...

Yes, as you very well point out, the code is VERY selective - nevertheless, and despite the list below, I hope and believe that it WILL work with 'GBH' (unfortunate abbreviation, lol) making it a more than acceptable GBP 15.19

Just checked listed PRE-ORDERS and about 90% DON'T WORK with the code although I suspect that when many went live there was a discount code in place at the time . . . (?)
