I've actually never seen this movie so I don't know.....is that Ellen DeGeneres in the bottom right corner?

Terrible! Such a let down.
How can the 2 main characters of this movie not feature in this awful artwork?
Damn.
Worst of the wave [emoji30]

 

[Last Lizard]

Deep down everybody wants to be a Cobra Kai. That's why you never see anyone wearing Bonsai shirts! Personally I like it for a taste of something different. The font kinda sucks but honestly, seen a million covers like it back in the good old VHS rental days in the action section so it kinda makes sense to me!

 

[Noodles]

Artwork is nice, but I agree that it doesn't really make sense to have those characters on the front... surely Daniel and Miyagi will at least be on the back?

 

[digitalbabe]

Yeah def odd, maybe some weird approval, permission or licensing issue about those characters/actors....

 

[smileyx9]

which one of the Guys on the cover is the Karate Kid?

 

[Norwichlad]

Love it! Classic movie

 

[justhedudeman]

Nice artwork.

i wouldn't buy this for 10 cents. what a ridiculous front cover without the main characters. they've got to be joking.

 

[chunk]

Yea! I love this steelbook.. i have a print on my wall of this artwork, i think Barney would approve of it.. I'm with others about the font, looks a bit cheap.. hope the main characters are on the back though.

What is the quality usually like for future shop steelbooks of this price, i don't think I own any future shop steels and I'd like a bit of info before signing up for the GB as these steels work out pretty expensive to import.. any help would be much appreciated

Okay, HA HA. April Fools. You guys can put up the REAL cover art now.

If the current front art was the back, and then the front was a similar style with Daniel-son and Mr Miagi this would be epic!

But alas, it's not lol

So this is the Kobrakai edition? Maybe its an alternate cut where Dan gets his ass kicked at the end?

EDIT: Kobrakai? Lol, you can tell I'm a Lostprophets fan. *Cobra Kai.

Barney Stinson's wet dream?

Haha, glad to see y'all having some fun

Lmao. Where the heck is the "Karate Kid"? But with all this funky art being released recently, Im assuming a lot will like it because it is "different". I dont get it. Unique doesnt mean good.

Different people have different tastes. It's not personal, it's just a steelbook design. I'm sure karate kid will have another release with a more iconic artwork choice.

Of course its not personal. Just voicing my opinion like everyone else. My taste is normal/poster art steels. But the front cover of this steel doesnt make sense regardless...imo.

You said unique doesn't mean good, that is obviously in eye of the beholder.

This. I don't see Jaden Smith anywhere on that cover.
