The FNAC listing mentions a lenticular in the SteelBook title, but doesn't mention it as being an exclusive edition
All of them should have lenticulars, despite where you get them in FR (including AZ.fr of course) ;)
Az.fr's listing just doesn't mention it (though they really should, huh) :p
Here's a nice ad featuring the entire Steel:

Yeah, it doesn't look like it's lenticular after all :(

But you can clearly see a border on it so you never know. At least it might be embossed.
 
... But Fox France didn't announce The Croods as a lenticular anywhere and yet it was :) — and it kicked the ass of the German one, same for Epic, also at Fox. So I'm thinking we're in for a 3/3 from Fox this fall.

FNAC's website was bad at one point for sending amarays of GI Joe 2 instead of steelbooks because they stupidly had given them the same identification number (or something like that), fair enough, but that's an entirely different matter here : if this Wolverine steelbook isn't a lenticular they would have corrected it by now, it's been a while since they said it would be.

Either way, €26.99 is a pretty great price ($36.59 / £22.68), and the matching inside art shown here blows away the HMV exclusive :) (the Italian steelbook hasn't revealed its inside yet).

So if on top of that amazing inside art it also has a lenticular, that French edition will be the best of the white ones, and probably the best Wolverine steelbook to have :LOL: (not a huge fan of Media Markt's art, the white art suits this film better).
 
Announced region B
Here
Thanks. Not sure how consistent they are with their region info. I see they have listed Croods as region ABC when infact 3D disc is region B locked.
Lots of EU retailers just label everything B by default unless they get assurances from the studios that a title will be region free
...so it's not necessarily locked just because it's only labelled as B ;)
Very odd to see a retailer advertise a title as region-free unless all the BRs in the set are EEK!
...that's false advertising, and I can't imagine how they could deny you a full refund :p
Thanks, but the ad doesn't appear to mention anything about this steelbook being lenticular.
I don't know who to trust: FNAC or Amazon?
Well if it makes you guys feel any better, a good friend of mine in FR has confirmed that all retailers should get Steels w/ lenticulars
Once again, FNAC would be refunding everyone who ordered a Wolverine online if they shipped Steels to ppl without lenticulars on front
Think positive, friends :naughty: :D
I think the region coding could go either way though
The UK HMV SteelBook is AB, but the IT Wolverine says BC on the back of the amaray...

Also, the website lists Epic as Region B, although I believe only the 3D version is Region locked. So Wolverine could go any number of ways. Whole release region locked. Only 3D disc region locked (like Croods, Epic), or non of it region locked.
 
Now the question is what picture on the lenticular. Boring picture as on every other wolverine steelbook in the world or something original like media market in germany.:ohno::ohno:
