hi sorry im new to this. What i meant was ive seen this steelbook been sold in france along with the IM FS and it had different stickers to that which i thought was released by FS canada, so i thought there might be a difference. So what im saying is that ive seen for example the IM FS sold with the usual blue FS sticker on the bottom middle and one with a round FS sticker on the top right. So im slightly confused if this is the same FS release. Sorry hope im making sense :/
 
May I dare to ask what is so special about this exclusive steel?
The same exact artwork was released virtually everywhere.

I'm a huge fan of the movie and thus own a big collection of the various releases.
I bought the local steelbook release on DVD which has the same artwork.
So back to my question - what is so unique in the FS exclusive of this release?

Thanks
 
It is so unique, it even came with a NECA Watchment Journal. It intrigued me why you do not have a copy (from your statement, you are a huge fan?)

liorb22, I guess the best reason why the FS is unique because you, as a huge fan were not able to get one

And avatar picture thingy

I settled for the DVD steelbook of this same design (same gloss finish too). Just to go alongside my play.com steel and collectors boxset of the ultimate cut. Even the DVD version is not that easy to find, although I only paid £20 for mine a few months back.

You've only got to look at any of the pics in this thread and it should explain why. There are few steels with better art or more vibrant colours. Not to mention the great gloss finish and overall quality. It's many peoples grail for very good reasons.

The journal is just the icing on the cake :scat: Just see how it stands out compared to the others

Its the only artwork released for Bluray steelbook. Has a great artwork and nice gloss feel to it.

Thanks for your honest answers... Still not convinced but that's just me ;)
I Totally agree with SimonLDT. My DVD steelbook has very nice glossy finish to it, and great inside artwork as well.
P.S: this steel is not the holy grail for the fans. The real holy grail is the UK press kit which I own :p

Comparing a Press Kit to a Steelbook in a "Steelbook Thread" Doesnt Make Sense

You raised a question about "Steelbook" that you do not own (ofcourse you started to make use of the DVD as an initial object of comparison) and after numerous answers you swerved and immediately badmouth it by making excuse of a Press Kit as a Holy Grail? Really? Really?

May I dare you to answer - Why can you not afford to get a Watchmen Stelbook from FS despite being a Huge Fan?

Are you for real man? :hilarious:
Sorry if I offended the FS steelbook :D
Yes, I'm a huge fan. The fact that I don't own that edition doesn't make me any less of a fan.
I just asked what is so special about it and to my understanding the answer is nothing.
The holy grail to the Watchmen movie fan is the UK press kit. Plain and simple.
If you don't agree with it that's OK...totally your prerogative. But it beside the point if it's a steelbook or not.

Almost forgot - the answer to your question is simple: $$$
I won't pay any amount just to own one.

The reason this is so special is because: it's limited and rare, it has great artwork all round, it has really vibrant colours, it has a beautiful glossy finish (a real feeling of quality you don't find very often) and it has a decent film inside. If you can't appreciate this then clearly you're on the wrong site. I don't think HDN are planning on doing a spin-off site called presskit.com anytime soon either, sorry.
