Will likely just get the A1 edition. The A2 and lenticular basically have the same artwork, but are presented in different styles, plus they look roughly the same as the original lenticular they released a few years ago.

I only bought the full slip of the first WEA, so the full slip of this one will match quite nicely, especially since the original has Teller on the front and this new one has Simmons on the front. Pairing the 2 fullslips makes perfect sense to me.

Decided on A1. Wish kimchi would have divulged the slip finish though. It could be nice, but it could also be kinda meh. Hope the steel title is debossed too, the tin poof shot didn't show it.
 
I’m happy with my FAC Edition the WWA Glossy Steelbook with debossed title is one of my favorite Steelbook I own !

also happy with The Blu/Kimchi Original Fullslip such a nice Steelbook they also did.

After further thought, the lenti could be the winner, especially if you didn't buy the original lenti. Plus, the new lenti edition is a full slip (not an o-ring slip like the original), and there are no annoying reviews plastered all over the front and back of the slip.

A tin proof never shows em-/debossing. My hope is it will look like this:

Wish there was a quarter slip, will go for Lenti in its absence
A 1/4 Slip would be swell!

Yeah, I didn't think it typically would. I meant more of it hasn't been confirmed and it wasn't shown on the tin proof, being the only live steelbook pic we've had.

I'd really like your finish preference, it'd be awesome. I'd be a bit surprised if it was like that though. A simple debossed title is probably more likely.

It could well be the more simplistic title debossing, but they've shown with "Midway" before that they certainly know how to do more delicate 'bossing. Either way would look good, I guess. But no matter what they do, the artwork is a bit disappointing. The old steelbook from The Blu is much better, imho.
 
It's $40 shipping for a loose edition? They only offer EMS. It's $64 shipping for a One Click.
