It is. Just glossing the steel would have made it worthwhile.

Mine is dispatched now and the set still looks nice overall and like I have said. If I am upgrading my regular bluray to a 4k that makes it more worthwhile to me as it isn't a double dip. If I had this on 4k already or had a nice steel I probably would cancel. But I guess I will see how I feel once I get it right lol.

Yeah, I'd be in the same boat if I were you. All the art used is great, the execution just leaves a little to be desired sadly. I already have the Mantalab FS release, with the first white wwa steel and the US 4K disc. So as it stands it's turned out to not really be a worthwhile purchase for me.

streaky matte, I am glad I cancelled it.

Somebody needs to release a movie called 'Bacon', only then will this steelbook finish be justified....

That's a shame my dude.

Oofff. You and @samdavies are the only 2 to get theirs so far and both are damaged
What kinda packaging did they use?

 

[themanfromunkle]

Massive box with vacuum packs, lo & behold these were on the bottom of the box-devoid of any protection. One is ok, the one I purchased for my nephew is wrecked on one corner. Just waiting for zavvi's 'you can keep it and we'll refund you x amount'
A Joke

Mine got dispatched today, think will come tommorow seems they are moving away from royal mail mess more and more....my evri delivery guy is decent.
I'm not looking forward to the packaging issues that you guys are revealing....

His is much worse than both of mine tbh. But yeah, just a large box, both piled one ontop of another, with an airbag at the top. I think that's the same I've had every larger slip release from zavvi tbh. Some survive, some don't.. lol

Zavvi just told me to keep them both and refunded me though, so I'm not complaining too much haha I'll just keep the better of the two and flog the other one damaged on ebay or to cex.

Did you just order one copy? Your's will probably just come in one of their fat mailers, which honestly will likely arrive in better condition than mine.

Same here. They did tell me to keep both and issued full refund though, so you may get the same.

Not happy Evri are delivering these. Probably won’t get mine now

 

[tha_lunatic]

zavvi is too retarded to ship items

@JinxyKatte just said his was Royal Mail 24, so seems not all are going through Evri.

Mines with Evri

I have so many issues where I live with them. They either loose everything or refuse to deliver. Been going on for 18 months

 

[Retro Parrot]

Can we at least get a look inside one of these? Please.
