Mines not arrived yet but reading back I'm dredding a possible spine slash or dent or chip. After the back artwork disappointment (for me) and now possibly this. Hopefully arrives tomorrow

I remember getting mis-aligned embossing on another steelbook a while ago, but can't remember which. It's annoying.

 

[Alienkidmj12]

the title looks out of alignment but not 100% sure, not sure what i supposed to look like lol

mine is also mis-aligned, crap quality for the price paid.

 

[Steeler]

The embossing on mine is slightly out with the picture

That's so annoying. That happened with my Aladdin and Finding Nemo, hope it doesn't happen to me this time. Better with no embossing then. However, that's not Zavvi's fault. I wonder if Zavvi is aware of this problem at all? Or even most collectors, as I hardly ever hear anyone here ranting over this

To whoever said they hope TLM will have an interesting back: I'd put money on it being blue and that's it. I like Flounder and Sebastian but it won't happen. I hope they emboss the title and leave Ariel alone.

It was quite common with Django Unchained.

just received mine very nice imo

Front and inside are fantastic! Back doesn't look extremely awful since you can make out the jungle in there (although very faintly it seems)... but honestly, it is a missed opportunity. Look at the artwork on the j-card. Remove the movie info and the tiny box pics and imagine the backdrop artwork from the j-card on the actual steel. That would have been amazing!

Let's say I was in charge of this. That's exactly what I'd have done.

At any rate, overall it's a nice looking steel and the jungle green is beautiful.

Received Jungle Book today but with a horrid spine slash , looks like someone got the exacto and went straight in

 

[mnementh]

Spine slash here too.

Perhaps instead of a GB, we can organise a Group Return

Seriously, it is annoying. Do Zavvi do replacements for this ?

 

[humperklonk]

the embossing on this steelbook is amazing

Count me in the GR lol

Just messaged zavvi, won't be expecting a reply till next week to be honest

 

[jimmyv]

The fact that spine slashing is still happening on a massive scale is 1000% unbelievable. With all the returns, all the complaints, all the money lost, you'd think that by now, somebody woulda stuck a dam piece of cardboard between the box and the spines and gotten a promotion.

Here is the best way to sum up my feelings on the matter --->

Let us know what they say

This is a bit of a shame really. Quality control seems to be an issue with most companies steelbooks but not usually with disney.

£22.99 is a lot to pay to accept anything but a 100% perfect steelbook

 

[ZubS]

Let us know what they say

Will do

If zavvi's customer service was ever like amazons I wouldn't be worried but in this case I'm sweating.

The slash on this is so bad, it's dug right in leaving a bit of the shrink wrap torn on the side

 

[Slaughtermom]

Imo it gets close to impossible these days to get a 100% prestine steelbook. I'd say 70-80% of all steels have some flaws. Paintchips, scratches you can tell only in some crazy lighting, inaccurat embossing and so on. If you keep em sealed (what id never do) you wont be that dissapointed with todays quality issues. Or do yourself a favour and dont look for em

At least 10-20 of my steels had some minor to serious issues underneath the j-card or became vissible when removing the shrink.

Its annoying as hell

 

[NAT1976]

Mine arrived today, looks mint to me thank God

 

[Thisisnotsparta]

My embossing seems slightly off vertically, but nothing like as bad as some of the pics. Got a nice paint chip on the back, but considering how faint the back cover is, at least the chip stands out.
