I really like that there's no character on the spine, looks more classy!

Includes 3D it gets even better

This in my opinion will show the TW version is poor in comparison I know some like the TW version but to me its boring and very basic even with its embossing and debossing

Zavvi Lion King 2D and 3D
Its going to look simply amazing and will be a very wanted steelbook

I'm really looking forward to seeing all the artwork and its a very easy decision 100% purchase

I prefer characters on the front and back artwork. This looks pretty good but needs to be full gloss with debossed title. No need for any border.

Okay so how long will it take to sell out then?

place your bets!!

I am praying they don't shove "3D" on this anywhere!

That would be awesome, but I think unlikely. Zavvi and Disney knows they can charge a fortune for the 2D version alone because this film has been in desperate need of proper steelbook treatment. They really don't need to add a 3D disc for it to sell out.

3D or not, it is and likely will always be the best Disney film EVER!

While I think this will look pretty swell if it's done up like the more recent Disney efforts (even though it breaks the new "bordered" thing they were doing), I don't believe this will look better than the TW release.

The embossing/debossing on that is amazing!

What surprises me is how well these non-WEA Disney covers are doing. I've seen vhs and DVDs with this cover art

@steellogic Kinda agree, dread to think what the combined Disney/Zavvi price for this in 3D will be! . Also, IMO they shouldn't try and hide Jeremy Irons all the way at the back there

 

[Tacozilla]

even though i already own the Taiwan version, this is one of my favourite animated movies so ill happily double dip

Ok, I'll guess...4 hours if without 3D, under an hour with 3D.

Did you add that lighting in after the picture was taken, or does that room always look that mystical? :jawdrop:

 

[Norwichlad]

Hope I get one. How much you reckon £26?

 

[Mrhoyt]

Love the artwork, not to happy for the 3D it will just cost extra for nothing (to me)

 

[steellogic]

Hope I get one. How much you reckon £26?

Knowing now that it does include 3D, I can't imagine it would be any less than £24.99

 

[wjasoncul]

The Pixar 3D's were only 20.99. It's got a chance

 

[babylon]

Looks fantastic!

 

[comicfan298]

YES! Did not expect this one, I will be getting this with Snow White that's for sure. Fingers crossed for Sleeping Beauty and a long shot as it is Beauty and the Beast won't be for behind.

 

[villadelrefugio]

I just ordered the Taiwan version...but what's great about this art is that it gives everyone a chance to pick from something different, which I'm all about. As opposed to these world wide steelbooks with the exact same art. Definitely a winner.

Basil the great mouse detective should be next damn it amazing film yet doesn't get the same releases as the other.

Fyi I think with 3d it will take 2 hours and 5 minutes to sell out.
