Just got mine in today from amazon.fr and its definitely a steelbook. I was a bit nervous... super psyched now

Eventually they'll run out of the steelbook version and people will start getting amarays

 

[alvinhwang21]

so the listing for on amazon.fr is still for the steelbook ? i've been looking for this and at a good price for a long time !

 

[Naughtius Maximus]

I've ordered a few from amazon.fr last week and had no probs... also they were packed very well ;-)

 

[Hooltra]

For the moment, this one doesn't exist on amaray in France, so you'll get the Steelbook for sure on amazon.

sure?? cause during the recent offer(90euros off for 12 blu rays) there was two different page for this movie, on around 12euros, and the other one almost 15, i figured the less expensive should be the amaray(i was sure i had read someone on another forum saying there was an amaray version..)

Never saw an amaray version in any store : Fnac, Virgin, Auchan, Carrefour, Boulanger... maybe i'm wrong.

The 15 euro one is the steelbook...

Not too thrilled about this version

Not too thrilled about this version

The film wasn't the best...But the steelbook is a corker

The film wasn't the best...But the steelbook is a corker

Totally agree, I didn't like the film but the steelbook is a beauty!

 

[kp404]

Well since it's not too bad price-wise, I may get it too since I'm building my collection

 

[alvinhwang21]

thank you to everybody for helping me take a leap of faith.... was about to order this from ebay for 50 bucks till i saw this post !

even if it comes as a regular blu ray amazon has a great return policy

Out of interest, where is the digital copy? I purchased this in France a couple of weeks ago, and there was no card inside with a code / only the 1 (Blu-Ray) disc?

It should come with an extra disc that says digital copie and a code should be in there as well for it.

Can anyone confirm if only the amaray cover is for sale now and if the steelbook is no longer available on amazon.fr

 

[vurt]

I'd be interested to know that as well, the link in the OP looks like the steel but doesn't say it is one and there is a separate listing for the amaray.

If in doubt, Movie Style still have it available: http://www.mov-style.fr/en/the-complete-selection/164-the-thing-2011.html

Well, I can tell you guys I ordered this last year and it didn't say anything on amazon about this being a steelbook (other than the picture) yet I received the steelbook version.

 

[Buddusky]

Thanks for the info guys. Much appreciated

 

[clacfunk]

in my experience, amazon.fr no longer stock the Steelbook edition.

The Steelbook can still be found in some stores but it is very rare
