One of the steels I'm most looking forward to this year along with DT..
Haven't seen this one for a while now..

I am only wondering how bad the paint chips will be on this one. Seems the odds are not good for this one.

Believe this will be high gloss as its a Disney release unlike Fox and Studio Canal which are renowned for cheap matte finishes which are prone to paint chips. I think this release will be high quality.

I sure hope you are correct.

I look forward to receive my copy ..

I'm still nervous this will be similar to their last 'wave' effort i.e. the Buena Vista wave. Possibly the worst Steelbooks released in the UK to date. The lack of inside artwork on Zavvi's website doesn't fill me with confidence. It seems that Disney have learnt judging by their Zavvi exclusives so far, but we won't really know until these are released

 

[toonminator]

Phew, that's a lot of black and potential for paint chips and scracthes... I'm not sure about the fading of the artwork on the left and right side but not the top and bottom. Popping colors and the combination gloss/matte could turn this into a gem. This might either become either one of the best or worst Steelbooks

 

[spookz]

I think this'll look great. I have the German Legacy steel and this should look good on the shelf next to it. It's quite sad, however that instead of getting excited about releases, like this one, that because now of failures in the production, checking and customer service, that we now all dread the release of these great steels. I hope that more care will now be taken, and this will look great. One can only hope.

 

[Coop]

Well, this one has the potential to be absolutely great or completely abysmal. Only time will tell ...

I mistakenly canceled my Tron order, then emailed Zavvi asking if they could re-instate the order...this is their reply:

Thank you for getting in touch for an update on order 28550567.

I am really sorry to let you know that we have had to cancel your order for your item because our suppliers were unable to provide it.

I understand how disappointing this might be. We have tried other suppliers but we have not had any luck. We will be removing the item from our website as soon as possible.

If a charge has been taken for the order, then a refund will be requested upon cancellation and the money returned to your account within 3-5 working days.

If there is anything else that we can do, then please do not hesitate to get in touch and a member of our team will be happy to help.

Kind regards,
Jess


They didn't cancel, I did, so maybe they are mixing me up with another item, but in light of the problems they've had with Indiana Jones and Little Mermaid, and others...who knows.

 

[Petit Lu]

Imo they just sent an automatic answer for cancellations... I think we would know if there was something wrong with this release.. I hope not, really looking forward to this one

I wished the would put out the new one too in a Steelbook.

whats wrong with the versions already released

 

[MacLeod]

^I suspect nothing, except that perhaps he would simply like a steelbook version of it.

There is already a steelbook release of tron legacy.

 

[toonminator]

There is already a steelbook release of tron legacy.

There's one of the original Tron too, although it's combined with legacy.

 

[denizen]

I think perhaps Knights2009 meant to say that being a Zavvi exclusive, a Legacy Zavvi exclusive would fit the card?

 

[Petit Lu]

Oh oh... apparently Zavvi must have a problem with this as they really take the steel out of thier website, as reported in a mail earlier.
Are they gonna send mais for cancellation?

(It still appears when you click on the link of this page, but not directly when searched on Zavvi site)

 

[Mariuzz]

Are they gonna send mais for cancellation?

I hope they aren't.
Or they cancel any orders because the price was to good for a Disney steel
