But just to be clear, what am I missing out on by not having the bonus disk anymore with the HMV release?

My Zavvi 3D steelbook arrived today. I was a bit worried when it showed up in one of those cheap barely padded envelopes instead of the newer cardboard folders they've been using. It arrived damage free and then I realized it will not fit into one of those newer packages since it's much thicker with the plastic tray that protects the magnet.

Hmmm, hope mine is waiting for me when I get home then (I'm on the East Coast of the US). Received Bladerunner and Baby Driver from Zavvi on back to back days last week (11/20 and 11/21). Was hoping I'd get Spider-Man on 11/22 before the holiday, but better late than never, I guess.

reewinder,

Did you open yours? With that plastic packaging, it's difficult to see any damage. Sadly, I wasn't so lucky. I hope I can receive a perfect copy.

Have not opened yet but from the outside it looks flawless. Only flaw I see is where the magnet slightly poked through the outer shrinkwrap.

Thought I'd share my crappy pics:

Front cover sans magnet:











With the magnet attached:



So the magnet has tape over it, but even with the tape the magnet is strong enough to attach to the steel. Might be a good idea to keep the tape on in case the glue attaching the magnet to the Spidey symbol "dissolves" (not the word I'm looking for, but damn I'm having a brain cramp now! :lol)

Has anyone compared the Best Buy WWA with the HMV version? Are there any differences besides gloss?

HMV version has the title on the spine placed differently and a much better inside artwork. Overall it's a winner.

Thanks!

Have you compared them side by side, to see if the colors are the same?

Colours are the same, but obviously being glossy they stand out much better. I didn't like this steelbook when it was announced and after seeing in hand photos of the matte US steelbook. But seeing photos of the glossy I had to get it and wasn't disappointed.

My HMV copy finally arrived in the states this week and I look forward to watching the 3D version this weekend! Wished the 3 disk HMV version used the Zavvi steelbook design for its cover since I think that one looks really distinct.

I disagree, the artwork on the HMV one is brilliant.
