X-Men: Apocalypse (3D+2D Blu-ray SteelBook) (HMV Exclusive) [UK]
- Thread starter GinjaNinja18
- Start date
Yes, it's possible, but where is the new image online because I can't find it anywhere?
It's not on HMV's Online site or on the BR.com's listing.
Maybe it'll be totally unimaginative and they'll use the same image - poster design by ART MACHINE - as on all the other U.K. BD releases (which also wouldn't be a first):-
Standard BD
DIGIBOOK
This is also what I thought and the reason I said it will be the art.
Why change it from one mock up to another. Like DOFP they did the same and when it changed it eneded up being the final art.
Also it seems like the art they would go with compared to the last mock up. Always knew the one with just appocaypse wouldn't be final.
Exactly mate... the new art seems more likely to be final. I do like the new one, but I preferred the original mock-up. Will be interesting to see what they use for back art. I'm just praying it ain't bare metal!
They haven't changed it officially as far as I can make out and like yourself I hope they don't.
As far as I can gather the new image appeared recently in HMV shops and has NOT appeared online anywhere, not even on HMV's own site.
Happy to wait and see whether they go with either TBC/FPO artworks or with something completely different
Not really bothered in any case by which choice they decide on as long as if they go with the original mock-up they move the title from the upper part to the lower part to just where "ARTWORK TBC" is printed.
Previous X-MEN front cover artwork on our U.K. steels have been very much a mixed bag and can be divided three categories:-
1) GROUP SHOTS:
- X-MEN 1 (2001) Released 2013
- X-MEN 2 / X2 (2003) Released 2013
- X-MEN 3 / THE LAST STAND (2006) Released 2014
- X-MEN 7 / DAYS OF FUTURE PAST ROGUE CUT (2014) Released 2015
:
2) INDIVIDUAL SHOTS:
- X-MEN 4 / ORIGINS WOLVERINE (2009) Released 2012 & 2015
- X-MEN 5 / FIRST CLASS (2011) Released 2015
- X-MEN 6 / THE WOLVERINE (2013) Released 2013 & 2015
- X-MEN 7 / DAYS OF FUTURE PAST (2014) Released 2014
- X-MEN 9 / APOCALYPSE (2016) Released 2016
- X-MEN 11 / WOLVERINE 3 ONE LAST TIME (2017?) Released ?
3) SYMBOLS:
- X-MEN 5 / FIRST CLASS(2011) Released 2011
- X-MEN 8 / DEADPOOL (2016) Released 2016
- X-MEN 10 / DEADPOOL 2 (2017?) Released ?
Point of post is to show the different styles of U.K. X-MEN steelbooks and until the artwork is confirmed either on HMV's online site or elsewhere officially this new one could be GROUP, INDIVIDUAL, SYMBOL

Saw this recently. It's unfairly poo poo'd on. Really enjoyed it. Special effects could of been better. Anyhoo pre ordered
great artwork, I think I prefer it over the original. Now if it was white & full gloss...
I much prefer it personally
Something not quite right about the original mock up
This would look great glossed or spot glossed but I'm worried it will be silver
As expected. Wouldn't hurt for them to reveal the back art as well though...
