Hell yes, so glad I didn't get the steelbook on ebay. I was hoping they'd do something like this - one of my favourite Spielberg films

Odds on Paramount keeping logos and J card information printed to the damn lovely slipcase.
Yes?
No?

It's high probability isn't it?

My guess is none. The World War Z edition from Paramount that looks exactly like this one in terms of contents had a j card (so no text on the back) and a sturdy slipcase.

The Once Upon a Time in the West 4k Col Ed and Chinatown 4k Col Ed had logos and J card information slathered all over the front and the back of the cases, but then I think recently The Ring 4k collectors edition came out largely unscathed.

It's a hit & miss with Paramount unfortunately. I might wait to see beforehand. The former two were utterly ruined imo, especially Once Upon a Time in the West slip

Happy with my Steelbook but that's a nice set! Is that the Paramount scares logo on the side? Wonder if US will get a third volume of movies and UK will get individual releases of the same

Yeah, but the World War Z and this package differ in that they have a folder which holds the cards, posters etc. From what I see in my Chinatown edition it just comes with an amary and loose Cards inlcuded in the slipcase, I don't own the Once upon a Time in the West one but I can't see a folder on the product photo.

If you compare the WWZ package with this WotW one it looks completely the same. I bet it comes with a j card and no text on the slipcase, I'd be surprised if I'm wrong here.

It's still a nice set. I may have to pick this up.

Decent rigid slipcase filled with some tat goodies...
At least they stop the amaray case from rattling around in there...

I replaced the amaray with my steelbook for a nice premium feel
