I know the 4k print run means this'll probably end up in the end-of-year sale, but I must say, the steel and full slip turned out pretty damn well.

And $47 all-in for a premium WEA release feels like a bit of a bargain these days.

Thanks for sharing buddy.

WOW, glad I cracked and went full slip on this one and if it ends up in the Winter Sale this year c'est la vie

Mine fullslip is already in country hopefuly it will go quickly through customs and will be here till saturday

Edit: customs clearance done, tomorrow it´s here, probably fastest Korea delivery so far looking forward to the beauty of a slip and also to rewatch after 7 years.....

Like this release a lot! Classic Nova fullslip with rough finish with glossy elements, backside is superb, I like the grey colour palette overall. And steelbook, even though Im not a big fan of faces on covers I love this steel. Again nice cold grey-blue colour palette, beautiful full gloss, embossed, NO scratches, minty mint 100% shape steelbook! Plus nice little finishing touch of metallic reflections in Liam´s eyes, this was surprising!

All in all, great release for reasonable and adequate price, happy days.

Got my copy today, too. The full slip is for a friend.

I love how Nova matches the numbers when you buy more than one copy.

The lenticular image is amazing!




Clarity and sharpness in the image are the best I've seen in any lenticular. I never thought the pullover with all the fine details would work so well in a lenti. And the expression in Liam's face is unbelievably clear.
The snow on the back is embossed. Looks a bit too large, but still works great.



Embossing on the spine and the back, once again.



Awesome release by Nova. Both slips are awesome, but even though I usually like full slips better, this time the lenti wins in my opinion. Apart from personal preference, Nova once again shows why they're the best when it comes to slip quality. Can't wait to unbox it!

@Hereticz Where did you get that acrylic stand? Looks great!

Damn, I need this... Not sure I'm patient enough to wait or hope for Xmas sales lol. Both Fullslip and Lenti look great. Undecided which one I prefer now I've seen some pics. Thanks @Hereticz @CleverLoginName for the helpful nudge

Go for it guys, like I said the price is very adequate for what you get! Both slips and steelbook are perfect and don´t forget nice quality booklet as well. Btw just watched the movie again and I like it more than first time, it´s great! Btw I forgot how superb PQ it has, great contrast, lot of detailes and beautiful grain!

 

[Hereticz]

Yeah and those acrylic stands are from steelbook central @CleverLoginName

 

[blu-steel]

I dont think these will last til next Christmas. From the looks of this it could be a contender of the year for best steelbook or slip.

 

[kingkarl1967]

My lenti is in the country , should be here on Monday ..... looks a beauty.

 

[jimmyv]

Well there's one thing that's for dam sure. Nobody else needs to even think about doing another release for this film.

Novamedia CRUSHED it with this steelbook and these slips. Super nice box too.

Thank you both for the photos. Looks like it turned out really nice! Glad I ordered one now.

One of those very rare occasions when the steelbook looks as good as if not better than the slips.
