Looks like an lgans316 quote didn't make the cut

Mine came today.. love it. Inside artwork is nice but I don't know how to upload pics to the site. I clicked the little paper clip icon and it says upload photos from computer.. so would I have to use my laptop rather than my phone to do it? When I upload photos to ebay (for example ) from my mobile I just click open gallery and click upload, easy. But on here I've had no luck...I'm clearly not that great with technology lol

Thanks for that Wreck.. I'll check that out. All I've managed so far is getting my avatar pic up lol. I tried google for hdn help with adding attachments but only found a little on it and I still didn't understand completely obviously I'm not the best at this computer stuff.
Thanks for this advice about the app.. if I'm still having any difficulties, is there a link for a more in depth, hdn for dummies I could check out?

Chunk Thanks for the Photos

Looks Good but i cancelled this and 13 assassins due to bills having to be paid
past 3 months i have spent €400 on steelbooks and other Blu-rays

Will most likely order in the new year with sale or price drop

Note there is unboxing Video on Youtube of this and 13 Assassins

Don't go by my bad pics, think I should have taken them in natural light.
When the light catches it just right it looks pretty good.
Maybe £9.99 would have been a good price for this, I was happy to pay 14.99 tho. I think zavvi did a good job bringing this and 13 assassins out.. I hope they do more from this genre in the future

ps to Wreck, thanks for telling me how to upload pics

 

[Noodles]

Very nice looking steel... thank for the pics! And congrats on the quote Matt.

Sorry keep all mine sealed.

? If you don't mind me asking why you keep sealed
I don't get the point of buying a Steelbook and keeping it sealed as in never opened

Why do you buy a Steelbook if you don't open and watch the film extras etc

I don't get spending money on a steelbook to have it sit on your shelf never to be opened and used

If you only buy steelbooks to sell or trade I can understand keeping sealed
But if its for keeping I don't get the point of keeping it sealed

Note Protected yes using Blu-ray wraps I use

Do you not watch Steelbook Blu-ray films and extras I'm curious to know

Sorry paulboland just want to be the first to post actual pic's instead of snooloui or one of the usual suspects getting there first.

Can understand your frustration in wanting to see inside art and that another member had a copy in front of them but wouldn't open it, but thats the way I choose to collect and I'm sticking to it.

To answer a few of your questions I have no need to open them to watch as I have seen already or can rent them at some point.

Never been interest in extras to be honest I just like to be entertained for 90 mins not have them tell me how the movie was made kind of takes the magic away, but hey that's just me. Plus don't have the time would rather spending it watching an actual movie that I've not seen than watch a movie about a movie.

I guess the main reason why I keep them sealed is money related as their value drops once opened but I don't buy them as an investment or for financial gain far from it. The reason being in an ideal world every steelbook release would have awesome artwork with a great finish with a limited print run and never get another release ever! By this I mean that the release be that perfect that it couldn't be bettered in anyway which will never happen. But unfortunately that's not the case there will always be the possibility of another release with superior artwork finish etc. My point being I don't open them as I can trade or sell the ones I no longer want without loosing out.

All that being said I do get frustrated myself as I am missing out not being able to fully appreciate the whole steelbook.

Maybe one day I'll just say f*#k it and open the lot.

No offence to anyone, but I'm always confused by people who think they are 'investing' in Steelbooks.
If you want to invest put your hard earned dough into some kind of long term pension/investment plan.
Collecting steelbooks for some long term monetary gain is a mug's game. Sure, you might make a killing on 1 title (if you're lucky)- but you'll lose on the other 9 you bought.

UK - Zatoichoi - Zavvi Exclusive
High quality matte finish with brushed steel on title font. This creates a mad effect which I've tried to photograph from different angles.

sry but the only mugs i see are the suckers still giving their money to criminal banking institutions in this current climate of long term money printing & permanent near zero interest rates

I wld try smthing with real intrinsic value that isnt so easily manipulated by the wall street & central government crooks, such as physical gold & silver, property, antiques ...and even a few steelbooks

 

[Futurhythm]

Looks better than I thought it would, but still a miss from me.

Design doesn't fit the movie at all and is almost misleading. And that back cover is woeful. I really like the inside artwork though, and wish that was on the outside instead.

Love the quote from my review on the J-Card Gonna have to get this just for that

 

[justboy]

Thanks for all the pics rickster. This is one good looking steel!

(...private investment companies are the way to go. You'll have to pay them a percentage, usually 1%, but it's acceptable if you are getting a double digit return.)

Anyone know if this is the same transfer that is on the standard amaray release?
