No one can ever do this steelbook better than mondo
Except SteelBook is a brand/company, whereas "car" is an object.Disagree. I refuse to collect Mondo because they write STEELBOOK on the spine in massive letters. Which is akin to writing CAR on the side of my A3. Looks daft.
Yeah, like Xerox, and Amaray...Except SteelBook is a brand/company, whereas "car" is an object.

However, I’m not sure it can beat the Arrow art from a few years ago.
I dont think you've seen Mondo Steelbooks in your hand because they are on another level. Plus, the reason Steelbook is so prominent on these, its because this line is a collaboration of 2 premium products: Mondo X Steelbook, so i have to disagree on your reasoningsDisagree.

I don't know if I would go as far as to call them nothing special and just another steel. I mean most of them are certainly at least a step above that. The quiet place one is gorgeous in the hand. But I will agree with you there are far far nicer steels out there.LOL. You know better than him ? Really ? And not all mondo's that great. Own couple. Just another steels. Nothing special.
(no he's gonna tell me that I do not own and never seen one live, right ?)

I'm not so sure. I read somewhere that there are 2 4k scans. One Universal did a few years back and then one Arrow did themselves. I think the one we are getting is the earlier 4k scan despite the blurb. If Arrow do a special 4k release which I think is very likely, we'll soon know since their own 4k releases to date have been stellar. Arrow don't always do their own 4k scans but when they do they are ace....Universal UHD release of The Thing is using the Arrow 4K scan restoration
The 4K scan of the negative was done by both Universal and Arrow at Universal Post in USA
This how scream factory and Turbine media was able to use Arrow restoration as it was licensed from Universal
The UHD release has added HDR and would be a different encoding and is why looks different to Arrow Blu-ray release
Info from Universal
The Thing was shot on 35mm film and has utilised a recent full restoration from the original camera negative, done by Arrow for their previous release, to produce a new 4K DI from which this UHD is sourced.
UHD is using the 4K Arrow Scan from 2017I'm not so sure. I read somewhere that there are 2 4k scans. One Universal did a few years back and then one Arrow did themselves.

I'm not comparing blu-ray to 4k. I'm simply saying that two seperate 4k scans were done. An earlier one by Universal and the Arrow 4k scan. I don't think the arrow 4k scan has had a 4k release yet despite the blurb I have been reading.UHD is using the 4K Arrow Scan from 2017
It was done by both Universal and Arrow a joint effort at Universal Post
You cant compare UHD that has HDR to a Blu-ray as they will have different encoding

Scavano is the company. Steelbook is the product range. And it’s missing the point.Except SteelBook is a brand/company, whereas "car" is an object.
