Well, the steelbook from Korea looks pretty good to me and I prefer it with the water and the sky more blue than aqua.
Same as ours:-



According to the site the shark is confirmed on the front - not on the steelbook itself but on the removable j-card/o-ring ("sur le flyer" according to the site).

Your disc doesn't have a region code on it, is it region free then?
 
^ Not my disc but believe the one from Korea is region "A" (?)

The one from the U.K. (which I will be buying) is REGION FREE.

Big thumbs-up for the creative way in which they've done the shark j-card . . . only slightly spoiled by the BBFC stamp covering part of its head.

Unboxing of the edition for Spain - just fast forward to 1 min. 45 secs. - out of a 3 mins approx. video - (past the Spanish chit-chat about the film):-

I've contacted zoom twice about my damaged steelbook.. with no reply.. not even a we've received your email and will get back to you.. they're starting to make zavvi look good:rofl:

Can't really comment on the steel yet as it's sealed and waiting for return but I do like that they cut out the shark on the j card
 
It's a really nice steel, I am partial to steelbooks that have a wrap around picture on then.
Also, a pretty good film too, the shark looked excellent.
 
Anyone else in the USA preorder this and not get it yet? Amazon.uk says mine shipped on the 3rd and I still don't have it. :(

Preordered it shortly after it went live and I'm still waiting for it to arrive too. I'm always worried ordering stuff from Amazon now as they like to ship stuff in A1 mailers.

Are you back east? I'm out west so 2 weeks is usually the max time I've waited for anything from Amazon.uk. I know the packaging isn't great but I've yet to get one damaged. However, now that it's late and I'm saying that and it's sold out, it probably will be. Assuming it ever shows up.

Yeah, I'm on the east coast. I guess with the holidays things are slow. My Suicide Squad digibook got lost by UPS so right now is a crazy time to receive stuff. I didn't realize it's sold out. Wow.

Ouch, if you don't have yours on the east coast yet, that's definitely not good news for either of us. :(
 
All the people who've ordered from amazon UK. I don't think you're getting your steelbook. I'd order it from within the UK and they emailed me saying they're unable to ship and there'd be an update on the 23rd. I contacted them. They've pulled the listing and it's only available through 3rd party sellers now. I think they listed it but are now not selling it.
