And will it be the main zavvi site or we having to go the outlet store route?

And thank you.

It will be UK time and would say the Zavvi site

^Oddly enough. I got The Little Mermaid as well this morning. And can't see any imperfections to the steelbooks.

My copy of 'Tron' arrived this morning. Have to say I thought the case a bit flimsy in comparison to other steelbooks I have.

 

[A Space Odyssey]

I received The Rocketeer, LM and Starship Troopers this morning but not this. Strange as they were all shipped on the same day.

 

[scorpius]

I did not order this steelbook. Looking at the pics I'm glad I didn't. I think it looks dull.

Will keep my Scandinavian Tron/Tron legacy steelbook.

Today's Disney/Touchstone Haul.

Not overly impressed with these, to be honest. I've taken some light intensity photographs to try and show that the horrible Warner UK Premium Collection Range finish (remember the one where you apply light and the image disappears) has resurfaced.

Yeah strange this one, mine arrived today, in hand sometimes i have been thinking nice cool steelbook then i pick it up again to have a look and i think it looks cheap, still glad i have it as i dont own a copy of this movie until now.

Zavvi seem to be killing Steelbook finishes in matte. I'm getting sick of it. It's getting to the point where it hurts my eyes, it make images dark and almost blurry if you get what I mean.

 

[Gamesgaryjp]

If you aint gonna do gloss, do a finish like fast 6 where it still has a nice sheen to it, not these 'powdery' dull finishes which dim the whole artwork.

I prefer matte in most instances but not the ultra weak powdery looking ones like this.

The paint is so thin, you can see all streaky lines down it where it looks like the metal is showing through

 

[stepstone]

I have to agree with others, this in-hand is much duller than expected, almost to the point of looking boring. The Rocketeer is the same.

 

[DrH]

Have mine

I like the matte finish and the artwork no imperfections

 

[GenPion]

I like matte printing and think it looks nice. However, I also ordered a copy of the German Tron Legacy steelbook, which I believe is glossy. I had hoped they would match but this will still be great. Technically, it's the same as my Star Trek Zavvi (glossy) and Star Trek Into Darkness ES (matte).

Yes let's blame Zavvi. In case you haven't noticed there has been a distinct lack of Steelbooks with glossy finishes for some time. I think I can count on one hand the number of Steelbooks with glossy finishes so far this year in the UK.

The back is awesome, the matte finish not so much.

The back of Tron and the front of the Rocketeer i really like the artwork

This is now available to Pre-order

 

[Misherwood]

I got this and Rocketeer after Zavvi decided to delete my pre orders. So relieved. Up yours Ebay scalpers and your over inflated sell on prices.

 

[lgans316]

The super glossy 3d Tron Legacy Steelbook was only few quid higher than this. The artwork is good on this but the finishing is crap.

 

[federalist93]

There will b some cancellations sold. FYI. Small qty. 300 or so

Thanks for the heads up! Would have never checked to see if it was available again and...just preordered!
