Just got my lenti today. It's pretty solid in hand, with good depth that extends into the background nicely. The reason it looks so unsaturated in so many photos (other than still being covered in cellophane) is due to the lack of color used on the animals in the foreground. I think they gave most of them a strong greenish hue to ensure your eye is still drawn to the center of the image, but I wouldn't have minded if they had taken it a bit easier on the color grading. The back doesn't have any embossing, but is glossy and still feels high(er) quality.
The steelbook itself is gorgeous. The embossed title looks fantastic in gold lettering and the gloss is very thick this time around, without any metal sheen showing through the paint (as with select parts of their CA:CW steel). The back of the steel is flat, but also glossy and sharp looking in hand. I've had pretty good luck with Blufans releases (only 1 in 10 or so have arrived damaged), but it looks like my luck ran out with this one. There's maybe 8-10 small chips here and there and a couple of small dimples in the steel. Still, it's a handsome steelbook, but I think I'll seek a replacement. It seems a waste to have such a good looking steel be marred by so many imperfections.
Oh, and the title on the booklet is done in gold foil. It's a nice touch, and the booklet itself is well done all-round with crisp and colorful stills.
