Best price around at the moment is to be found at Zavvi (GBP 13.49 after code) for this annoying and divisive release.
Why is this release annoying and divisive (to me at least) ?
a) Because it's not glossy like the first (which is a really nice steelbook).
b) Because for me at least the Back Version is preferable (although admittedly both go equally well/badly with the first re-issue edition).
c) Because of the spine issue where it seems like the same spine has been used for this steelbook release worldwide notwithstanding the fact that the only edition to carry the DVD is the U.S. / Canada edition !
Also a bit weird is the U.S./Canada edition has "UNRATED" in a box after the title on the spine and as far as I can see all other territories just have the title.
Target U.S. / Best Buy Canada vs. ROW
- So, it seems that ALL spines printed in all territories in both (or all three) Scanavo plants have the DVD logo printed on them.
- It also seems that the Scanavo Americas plant has "UNRATED" printed after the title on the spine and that that is the only edition to have that printed.
Goes without saying that it would have made better sense for Scanavo Europe to print all the spines for Europe / rest-of-the-world with just the "Blu-ray" logo on them although this is not of course the first time we've had "DVD" printed on the spines of our steelbooks here in the U.K. when there's no DVD included . . .
White sticker though (YUK):-
