I'm not sure that I can grasp how textless spines cut costs.

I mean every mm needs to be printed so how does text cost more that an image?

Somebody mentioned in the thread for the Lone Ranger Steelbook that it's so Disney can release the same Steelbook in different regions without having to reprint the title on the spine in different languages.

 

[Dino Last]

I really like this design. I'm surprised at the disappointment, especially as we have been getting steelbooks with 3D plastered all over them.

 

[pacman]

I hope blufans or kimchi can do a steelbook with name on it

I hope so too. BF and Kimchi (maybe TW) are our last hope.

How hard and time consuming would it be to switch out the graphic with a different language title after every 4000-ish spines printed? They can't be saving that much by doing this. I suppose Scamavo might give Disney a hell of a volume discount for making a single large order. Still sucks IMHO.

 

[SilverBlade]

The title-less spine annoys me the most, but I'd rather have all of the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies as Steelbooks to be consistent.

I guess no title is better than having to look at some *** *** foreign title.

I'm sorry... but what may be *** for you, may be someone else birth language.

Please keep a little respect.

If you love foreign titles on your Steelbook, this poster would make a fabulous limited edition Steelbook:

Foreign titles + unique artwork. What more could you ask for?

Oh...I didn't mean any disrespect but I guess it could have been read that way. I simply was saying how it reads in English is ***** ***. I don't think anyone can disagree with that.

Now this is something I can't decide on whether to pre-order or not..
I think I had better get a copy of the first one before I get this one though? lol

 

[Towser]

Nice artwork, but not one I will be ordering, will wait for a price drop

[cooey]

I think this'll be one of those releases that's gonna look a lot better in hand

 

[davhyl]

Love the nameless spine tbh. It's like the Avengers one. I also like the title-less front. That way I can sell on the 3D disc and put my 2D Thor [2011] amaray disc in.

Still pissed at the price though. I definitely will not be paying over £20 for it.

 

[Lolo268]

it is true that the price is high I may be waiting for a price drop since currently on the zavvi price tumbled

only question becomes what region is czech if is true because to me thats mutts nuts if correct

 

[BluSteel2012]

The Czech version looks the same only with the title included.

Could it be that Marvel Twitter page only presented to the public a picture of the artwork they will be using (without the title added) and not the finished article??

 

[Jericho]

Czech is Region B, like most of Europe. Although I would not expect a Region lock on this.

 

[Maccadeez1989]

It has to be gloss for this too work!!!

Can anyone on here find out ?

The only artwork I can find of the Czech release is that Film Arena one. I hope it does turn out like that but Film Arena have been known to put up fan artwork before and then change it nearer release.
