I'll be very surprised (and pleased) if it's below £20. Considering Zavvi want £27 for the other steelbook, this will still be a no brainer even if it is priced over £20.

Erm, why do we need two SteelBook releases for a film which didn't exactly light the critics on fire? Did it do so surprisingly well at the box office that warrants two separate UK SteelBooks? I think not.

More's the point, why does the uber-expensive CE not include a SteelBook?

Also, not too keen on the massive "3D" text slapped on the front like an afterthought! It ruins the look of the artwork completely! Why could this not have been printed on the J-card instead? I understand the need to clearly display that this film is in 3D, but why ruin great artwork for the sake of it? I hope studios take notice and stop doing this in the very near future!

Given Entertainment Store's current trend of being greedy with exclusive SteelBooks, expect this to be similarly priced aroud £27-£28. It's a standard 4,000 print run, so there's no reason why this shouldn't be £20-£22 maximum, but then again there's no reason why Zavvi should be charging a whopping £27 for the other more widely available SteelBook!
 
Yup, need to get rid of that 3D logo, doesn't even fit the rest of the font. And again, yes, this needs to be kept to a decent price considering how so many baulked at Zavvi's £27 price mark. Look after you loyal customers EE and keep this release at no more than £20 please.
 
Another recent film by them. I liked it when they were doing older films

Plus that 3D in the title is ugly as hell.

i bought true romance steel from ES ebay account. it never arrived. :mad:
 
It's getting easier by the day to resist pre-ordering these. Two 300 steelbooks :jawdrop: yet not a single Lego Movie special edition of any kind in the UK. Who's making these decisions?

So Entertainment Store are aware of Zavvi releasing their own 300 SB so Warner Bros. decide to give ES their own exclusive? I can't be the only one who is still eagerly awaiting the WD Season 4 SB? Can't Entertainment Store just try to get Jock to make that?
 
WEA is nice n all, but I prefer the Spanish version due to no 3D on the cover and I quite like the World Wide Art.
The Spanish version has no 3D disk though - the Norwegian, Finnish etc. releases were the best IMO - including the 3D disk but with no 3D text on the Steelbook/spine - plus actually cheaper than the Spanish version on release.
I paid £15.50 delivered for my version from Finland, the Spanish version cost me £19.87 but arrived damaged (so Amazon refunded me) hence getting the Finnish version to replace it (unlike the Spanish version, the disk titles are also in English).

The other steelbook is not a Zavvi exclusive its available from all retailers

I like the Artwork on this but it will depend on the price
I would have preferred it to be a glossy steelbook than zero finish

This should be available to international customers as the last 3 announced steelbooks from Entertainment Store have been available to pre order and ship international
 
3D ALL over it AGAIN make it more flogging subtle and pushing thirty quid :muted: = HELL NO :stop:.

I will be more than chuffed with the Amazon relise at £18 my first future pack to one happy Ninja here :oohyeah: :emb: :kiss: .
