Pity they didn't show the inside or discs. We're still not sure if it's got the 3D or not :/

I would imagine this will be inline with the first release, 2 discs main feature and bonus disc

That ******* border...

Someone needs firing.

According to Virgin Megastore in Dubai, this has both 2D + 3D (Region 2). I've seen HMV exclusives getting sold at Virgin Dubai many times before and since this one is out already I will be getting my copy tomorrow and will post pics here.

Please do post pics dude, if it includes the 3D i will be very happy

Sorry if it's been pointed out already, but don't they usually have the 3D Blu-ray logo on the spine if it includes 3D?

Just went through mine. More don't have the 3D icon than do.

Ah, that's good to know then. Thanks for checking!

Sony don't tend to plaster their Steelbooks with 3D.

much like the movie, not really bowled over by this steel...

I just don't get the black border.

The black encroaches further in than the actual border for a start (Sony used to have wider borders - the UK Django for starters), but this one has the slimmer border. While the title (I assume) and the eye are embossed, possibly even the webbing, there was no need for a black border at all. It should have been a full image cover, with the middle section debossed as normal and the title, eye and webbing embossed in the sunken area. Not that I think any embossing was required at all.

Very disappointing, but not unexpected.

Quite like the front. Looks sharp!

 

[thewoe]

So is that the same as the HMV Version?

 

[Kizza]

Cant see no age rating logos on the j-card so no way of knowing for sure if it is the HMV version

The barcode looks like a UK barcode though. Looks promising.

 

[thewoe]

Ooo i do hope its the same, as i was gonna buy the 3D bluray as well, but hopefully i wont have to

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Considering it's out in 1 week you'd think if it included 3D and 4K then HMV would've said something? At the moment we've been told it's only 2D and no 4K (basically, the shittest release in the world).

 

[Kizza]

I think this will be the same as the HMV one. That barcode is definately a UK barcode.

 

[lgans316]

Steel book will be the same but the discs won't be as they don't feature English HoH SDH

I got the Taiwan steel today and it has the same mark under Spiderman's eye as in the picture above.
