I hope this is a November or December release don't think I can afford much more in September/ October !

blu_sharpy · 08-07-2012, 09:53 AM

Pretty sure there's already a thread for the Paramount releases.

JimDiGriz · 08-07-2012, 09:53 AM

Directors cut or no buy. Bet this one will sell out though...

HammerDave · 08-07-2012, 10:25 AM

Not as nice as the FutureShop. Some variation in the art would have been nice too - maybe have the Minutemen inside rather than a repeat of the cover.

What they SHOULD have done of course is used this for the cover; http://watchmen.wikia.com/wiki/Sally_Jupiter

Yeah still can't believe I picked mine up for £15

laz305 · 08-07-2012, 02:36 PM

Wow I hope I'm able to get this one

blurayisnice · 08-07-2012, 02:48 PM

I highly doubt it will be. Would love it but doubtful.

NARMAK · 08-07-2012, 02:52 PM

Embossed/debossed and a DC would make this a win.

I'm not a big fan of the FS version. looks ok but this has a bit more pizazz to it imo. Just hope the finish is good and includes a good version of the movie via DC form

(W)KRP · 08-07-2012, 03:31 PM

The FS version is the one steel I have that went up in price since I got it. I opened it due to the security strip and found a crease in the case. Oh well. The new one is very nice, but the FS is iconic.

Hussun1 · 08-07-2012, 04:26 PM

I prefer the play.com design. Hopefully it will also be the director's cut.

mrpants · 08-07-2012, 05:35 PM

I rank the FS watchmen with Indy 4, an expensive steel I'll never have to buy as I just don't like the look of it. Wish I could say the same of Zombieland and others.

Liking play's design of this.

Nice steelbook, rubbish film though. Pass.
