Another one!

Looks pretty much like German release so I guess one of them would be enough. It's a shame, they could go with unique artwork.

I wonder how many other individual releases will we experience for this one

My bet would be UK, Netherlands and Japan maybe.

I think I like the french version better than the German. But hope the UK comes out with there own verions.

demiscy · 02-13-2010, 11:14 AM

they look dvd sized

Metropolitan already released a Steelbook, District 9, and it was BD-sized! I guess they won't change their policy.

Looks like a world wide April 6th release for this steelbook, so we should see more as we get closer to March.

maxbond007 · 02-13-2010, 12:47 PM

wonder if when the extended version comes out it will be in Steelbook edition as well?

Fnac doesn't say Fnac exclusive so I think we could purchase them from Amazon at a better price

Hope the Trilogy will include the 3 movies in Steelbook too !

but this release from Fnac does not contain the Steels right: http://video.fnac.com/a2822694/Le-Se...om=1&Nu=3&Fr=0

noone knows at the moment

TheForce8686 · 02-13-2010, 02:01 PM

I'd like to find one with English writing on it. The occasional foreign language cover was ok when steelbooks were rare. Now that they are becoming much cheaper, more common place, and easier to find the foreign language covers lose their cool.

hhhrrrinnn · 02-17-2010, 01:35 PM

And the three of them in a limited edition

http://video.fnac.com/a2822694/Le-Se...in=zanox920677

Same here but non "limited" (we don't know yet if FNAC adds extra content to that edition)...

http://www.cdiscount.com/dvd/nouveau...%2fa&cid=affil

Hmmm... Actually nothing says if it includes the stelbook versions inside or if it is a cardbox with amaray versions...

Kynch · 02-17-2010, 03:47 PM

Yes there's no indication as to if the Trilogy Boxset has all three SteelBooks inside. We'll see come April 6th.

maxbond007 · 02-18-2010, 04:30 PM

The return of the king is up for preorder on Amazon.fr but no cover art yet

victors · 02-18-2010, 10:52 PM

One SteelBook™ to rule them all... but in this case.. you'll have to collect all SteelBooks in the world to rule them all

protovision · 03-10-2010, 06:07 PM

Yep, that's the one I was looking at, but I want to see better photos before deciding...

Kynch · 03-10-2010, 06:09 PM

BTW, the UK one is just Amarays, as far as we know.

And the sticker on the French version says "Collector's Boxset / Limited Edition / Metal Cases (aka SteelBooks)".
