While the movie wasn't all that I agree but believe me when I say this steelbook is a must add to anyone's collection, beauuutttiiiffuuulll thing ;)
 
There isn't even anywhere on the Amazon France website to leave a message to request a Steelbook copy before you checkout :angry:

I've just ordered it so please, please, please send me the Steelbook version!!

I never have any luck when it comes to this sort of thing. If anything has a chance of going wrong, it usually does for me!! :dunno:
 
BluSteel-they don't guarantee it, because often the Amaray and Steelbook version are stored in the same area, logistically. Over the years collectors have complained repeatedly, especially after receiving an Amaray, when a Steelbook is pictured. Sometimes, after a while, the movie that was originally offered in a Steelbook, are offered as Amarays only. They were working on adding 'Metal Boitier' to their listings, if it was a Steelbook, but especially for older releases, you're best bet is to get enough posts (30), and try one of our trading threads in Trading Forum. Welcome to the site again!
 
We can only hope that (despite Amazon's message quoted earlier) all the initial stocks are of steelbooks, and that they'll only switch to amarays when those are depleted.

I haven't yet seen any reports of anyone receiving an amaray of this one, so maybe if anyone does then they could post here as a helpful warning to the rest of us. (And I hope it won't be me! Lol! :ohno:)

Thanks digitalbabe. I know it's a lottery so I just jumped in and crossed my fingers. I am looking forward to making my way into the trading forum eventually. Thanks again for making me feel so welcome to such an awesome forum :notworthy:

This is also another reason why I ordered myself a copy. Nobody has seemed to have received an Amaray yet. So I'm thinking (and hoping!) along those same lines VRob :naughty:
