Question About Universal 100th Anniversary Steelbooks (UK)

[Member-222782]

There are several films being reissued on Blu in the UK under the "Universal 100th Anniversary" banner in steelbook editions, some of which I'd like to grab. I'm particularly interested in The Thing (1982) but shots of the artwork on Amazon UK are rectangular-shaped - does this mean these won't be standard size steels?

I love The Thing (1982). But I wouldnt touch that UK steelbook with a bargepole! Its just horrible. And its horizontal too. Its a standard size steelbook though.

There must be ten threads on this topic, try doing a search before posting a new thread. To answer your question, no they are standard sized Steelbooks (known as G2), but the artwork is horizontal instead of vertical.
