This has really turned out to be one of the worst looking steelbooks I have ever seen.

Agreed. When there are so many great and artistic designers out there, how can these people keep their jobs?

The fan-made steelbooks can't come soon enough (if they come at all).

If they put the title in front and spine and the price is £19.99. Then maybe i will get this instead of amaray. But no title is $!?% and the price is too damn expensive for $!?% steelbook

Bad language! Tut!

I'm not even angry at you, I'm just disappointed.

Ok wtf? This getting too much now, think I might purchase another Thor steel and a silver sharpie to write II on the spine/cover, pop the new discs inside from the regular release, it will still look a thousand million times better.

 

[Peenuts]

Looks like no THORht has gone into this at all.

Seriously thou, terrible. Just terrible. Thts a cancel from me.

 

[JH2607]

This looks utter crap! No way I'm going to buy this if it looks like this

 

[SteelReaper]

CANCELLED! Abismal artwork all round!

 

[ABjerg]

Cancelled!
Thanks Disney

 

[Skush]

Terrible. Canceled.

 

[MerlinT]

Ditto!

Yeah not the best back cover art but at least I like the front cover, even if it's title-less. I have a feeling this will drop in price like Iron Man 3.

 

[vicwheels]

So I got email this morning saying this is the final art work, not the original picture which was MUCH nicer that this, I too am disappointed in this Steelbook & hope someone else will come up with a nicer one.

We can't count on Future Shop getting one as Zavvi has the Disney licences since Brave came out. SO hopefully Japan or someone or somewhere else will have a better one to choose from.

 

[Wootball]

Jesus Christ. This is embarrassing.

 

[Shadow of Light]

Ummm ... wtf? Disney is getting really lazy with the artwork for a so called collectible item and I'm sure they'll cheap out on the finish, too. I can sort of get used to the fact that there is no title on the spine, but I am really hating the fact that they are completely abandoning putting the title on the front. The slip cover attempt just doesn't cut it for me so that THEY can save money on production costs by producing the same steelbook everywhere with a replaceable title.

Although at some point I will get Thor 2 steelbook for the sake of completion with the other Marvel steelbooks I have, I certainly will not be paying a premium price for such a lack luster attempt. I am hoping Germany can come up with something better and for less money like they did for Iron Man 3, but without the printed text.

Peace out!

I'm guessing that zavvi have had a s*** load of cancellations this afternoon as just email stating final art now revelled !!

 

[razr24788]

My day was going great all things considered until I check my email and saw this BS of a steel, I never like the new front but this just takes the biscuit. Its going to look horrible in hand, how does this even come close to the HMV release. Order cancelled, if no other countries come up with something different, I will give in and get this on the cheap to complete my collection.

Need to get another petition going to change the rear art work ala WIR

That is all we need!!!

 

[ben6212]

petition will do nothing. maybe if wreck can contact zavvi/marvel,maybe then. but i highly doubt it will change
