@paulboland That is pretty confusing... and not to mention fishy.

I got mine through an offer with another steelbook which was sent out much earlier, so it wouldn't let me cancel this one... I meant to get in touch with Zavvi about it but eventually forgot.

I'll probably be returning mine anyway, as the corner is bashed/dented... hopefully I can get a full refund, because this definitely isn't worth £17!

Oh, the run thing will fuel the Zavvi bashers

I'm really surprised at this. Love the embossing on the title and The Toxic Avenger himself really stands out. A boat load of special features too!

Front is glorious! Still not a fan of the back, spine, or inside. I like the HMV slip better.

Hmmn, so the Zavvi exclusivity was for 3 months only and the other 1500 copies are for general sale

 

[UpsetSmiley]

If I'd known sooner I would've waited for the inevitable price drop. I guess I got shafted by Zavvi. Seems like false advertising.

Just ordered this. The steel looks amazing. And it's only £16.99. Amazon have it for £24.99. Although this will definitely go down.

I need to ask. Do people think this is a must have (for people who aren't huge fans of the movie)?

 

[SonicBoom]

I am not a huge fan of the movie, but am considering purchasing this because it's a cult film.

However, I'm waiting to see if there is a price drop, and if one doesn't come around and I miss it, I won't be disappointed.

Any chance Future Shop might carry this?

No chance. The distributor in Canada we don't normally deal with. I think amazon.ca imported it though

If the same one is coming in November, what makes Zavvi's an exclusive? Any different content maybe?

The word "Exclusive" in Steelbooks means about as much as it does for video games of late. "Temporarily Exclusive" or "Seasonally Exclusive" is more like it.

Absolutely zero interest in this, but impressed that the White is actually white!
