yeah no doubt. Just consider how many are going to get damaged in those horrible jiffy bags from future shop.

Im hoping by ordering a whole bunch they will arrive in a box.

i have a feeling this will be released in the store. why would futureshop limit how much money they could make just making this an online purchase.

to increase revenue for their online shop.

With over countries/regions releasing the mocking jay version, this D12 version could well be the one to have in your collection

My thoughts too. This one could turn out to be a winner.

I ordered 5 different steelbooks when FS had that big sale one weekend
and they all came together in the standard white bubble envelope. It was loose inside.

Luckily, none of them were damaged but they really need to work on packaging.

In all these years of ordering online from FS and getting steel's in jiffy bags I have never had one damaged either. But I have received shipments from them in boxes as well when you order lots of copies at once. All I know is I ordered 6 steels once and they came in a box and the same thing happened when I ordered a variety of times more then 6 steel's. I find 6 steel's seems to be the magic # to get a box for shipping from FS. Buts thats really just an observational guess.

Wholy cow this District 12 version looks embossed or is it just me?

You're right. it does look that way... But I think it would have to be debossed cause theres no outer indent.

...or it could just be a the way the image looks. I dunno.

I just asked him on twitter - we'll see what he comes back with.

Glad he answered my request for the Hunger Games pictures

It would be awesome if it was but I think its just the way the image looks. Why would they emboss one and not the other?

Given what he said about the Mocking Jay version being a North American exclusive and District 12 being a Future Shop exclusive - that says to me someone else is getting the District 12.

Shared run = more special features. A bit of guess work there, though.

This one is nice, but I love the mocking Jay one

Either way, this version looks much better than Mocking Jay for me after seeing the actual pics of it.

wait now.. so the mocking one is canada wide release and the district 12 is FS only?

I thought they both were FS only.. or is BB in the usa getting the mocking one as well?

Confused, lol.

Ya i had asked him to post the pics too! Next time he should remember to not leave evidence or else he is going to keep getting hounded by Ninjas. haha

^^^ Yeah we can't be sure I guess. The image is deceiving, lol. It could go either way.

^^^ I think APSmith has it twisted

The way I understood it is that the D12 version is a FS exclusive (as in no one else is getting it) and the MJ version is N.A. exclusive (as in another place is probably getting it).

I'm thinking back to other releases before when FS has stated its a NA exclusive, no one else has gotten it.

So, like with John Carter, it was NA exclusive art.

But when they have a future shop exclusive, it doesn't mean best buy won't get it, it just means no one else in Canada will.

Resident Evil series, for example.

That's the way I interpret what he's saying.
