Awesome, gadget

I'll be in north america long enough to get to the Dallas 'Frightmare'. Linda Hamilton is supposed to be there, Earl Boen (Dr Silberman), Robert Patrick, Kristanna Loken, plus many many others including Linda Blair and a personal favourite Tom Savini.

I keep wishing they would bring Earl Boen and Xander Berkely to the UK so I can add them both to my US one sheet poster

You guys think I should wait it out and get this? (Don't fancy spending over £25) or get the german/French one for about £13?

It all depends on how you feel about lack of inside art. I love the front artwork of the Ger/Fr ones and at one stage was gonna double dip but there's something about the matte feel and embossing of this one, it's truly special in-hand. If there was ever a matte steel to convert gloss fetishists on here ths would be one of them. Go for it, yo won't be disappointed.

Thanks, I think I'll go with the de/fr from and do a custom inside.

one more question, on the specs, the german one is cheaper but seems to have inferior image and sound. But is that right?

I'm not entirely sure. I'd say it's the same remastered disc to be honest but don't quote me on that. Do some research online to be sure.

I went with the German one because it was a bit cheaper and the delivery estimate is between the 8th and the 18th. Should it really take that long? I ordered Jack Reacher from France and it came in 4 days

I'm in Dallas today at Texas Frightmare. Linda Hamilton signed my Terminator steelbooks.

All I will say is that meeting Linda was a very intense experience!

It would be great if Zavvi make a new steelbook, like Braveheart.

It would be great if Zavvi make a new steelbook, like Braveheart.

It would be better if Zavvi made a Steelbook for Rise of the Machines instead

No that would be a terrible idea

 

[Gadget]

I'm all in favour of Zavvi making a Terminator steelbook. The more the merrier. I accept that plenty of people here want exclusives and limited editions, but it wouldn't worry me in the slightest if every steelbook had a 10,000 or higher print run.

 

[BookofSteel]

i´m sure that we get a new steel when the new terminator is come to the cinema

That I would like to see happen so I could complete the collection

 

[Greyback]

No that would be a terrible idea

And why ?

Have you any argument ?

All Blu-ray steelbooks except the UK steelbook are nor very good. No inlayprint, no embossing.

People in other countrys deserves better steelbooks !

Sure, but they are from two different studios.

So a new T1 steelbook have nothing to do with a T3 steelbook.

Why not both ?

Or three, the T2 steelbook doesnt matches with the T1, german T3 or T4 steelbook ans looks on my opinion not so good.
It would be great if they use the original poster artwork if Arnie sitting on his Fat BOY

And T2 deserves a new 4K transfer.

This is a very nice steelbook with top quality embossing and matte finishing and the disc is perfect. There is a reason it holds a value and re printing or making another is pointless because we already have the perfect edition. Just because you want a new one at a cheap price instead of paying the money for this doesnt mean there should be a new release
