Sorry but you don't know what you're talking about. The lenti is easily the worst Nova one I've ever seen, and must be a genuine candidate for the worst lenti ever. Liam Neeson is completely flat, the background is a blurry mess and the Eiffel Tower slides comically along the background. The only bit they got right was the generic flames in the foreground...

In all seriousness, would we have any grounds to return a premium steelbook if the quality is bad enough? If the answer is no then that's fine, I won't throw my toys out the pram. It'd just be nice to know where we stand in situations like this.

I agree it's not a great lenticular, too much grain and it's rather blurry. I can see some depth on Neeson's image but not much. Not a great effort and not one of my favorites for sure, but I don't hate it either.

Quick shot. The background isn't great I will admit that but the foreground fire effect, title and Liam is pretty good IMO

WTF?! Mine doesn't look like that . For example on mine the Eiffel Tower jumps to the right, but on your clip it looks like it rotates properly.

No wonder you're happier than I am !!!

Seems results are mixed on this one. And QC is not stellar either. Opened mine today to see the steel covered in paint chips from the opening side, top to bottom, dings to the full slip and scratches on the lenti, got me a trifecta for a change

Emailed Nova with pics and heard back minutes later with two options:

Option 1: nova points

Option 2: replacement

Guess which one I went for

Glad I didn't day 1 pre-order this. Happy to wait and get cheaper, if not at all. No biggie. Would like to see some quality pics of the FS, incase that is a lot better.

Option 1... obviously. To be used on Taken 2.
