Apart from the obvious differences there's also the less obvious such as the different sizing of the front image (and better layout) of The Americas steelbook - :-

Looks lovely and from the angle of the great pic taken by "lights" the title looks like it's been piped on with icing . . .

UK steelbook J-card with apparently same details as the 2008 UK Amaray release:-

The kid is at the side edge of the steelbook

It's a pity about the cropping issues, but I still like it.

 

[Scrubbedup]

I love the simplicity of this steel. Even though it's Matt it's a good one

Ha!! this cracks me up, I also have the U.S. copy here and I never even noticed him there before, the first thing that popped into my head was that he looks like the kid in Near Dark (Homer) it's almost like he popped his head in for a quick cameo, whoops wrong vampire flick

Just opened my copy today. I love this film but the steelbook is a bit underwhelming if I'm honest. The spot glossing on the title is extremely subtle. Someone mentioned there was also spot glossing on the sunglasses. There isn't. Just feels like the did the cheapest job they could. They could have even left the pic of Kiefer on the back colour instead of cheapening out with black and white.



And not sure why they changed the discs from the Amaray.



After Yesterdays horror story with the Blade steelbook, I hope it actually works!!
