Default Foreign Steelbooks With English Only Text

Hey everyone,

I don't know if a thread like this has been made in the past, I tried searching and couldn't come across anything.

My goal for this thread was to try to make a list of steelbooks from non-English speaking countries (basically exclude Canada, USA, UK and Australia) that do not have foreign text on the steelbook. I only buy steelbooks with English text and I assumed there might be other people like me, so I thought this could be beneficial for some members. If anyone owns steelbooks from European or Asian countries that only have English text, please post below and I will try to continually update this initial post with a list for each country. Thanks.

All Applicable Countries:
2012 (Destruction Image)
2012 (Plain Black Cover)
Inception
Terminator 2: Judgement Day

China:
Avatar - Extended Edition

Cool thread idea. I'd consider including Canada though, their recent wave of Alliance SteelBooks was all dirtied up with French.

The Total Recall from Holland is all-English once you unwrap it and remove the paper backing. Pretty sure the French one's the same way.

Do you care about the region code of the discs, or whether or not the discs have foreign language on them (even though the case might be all-English)?

Thanks . No I'm not concerned about region codes or writing on the discs, I swap all the discs out for Canadian ones anyways. However if other members want to add that information with their post I have no problem including it on the list.

So these do not have foreign writing on the front OR back?

This is exactly what I am going to start doing. Collecting steelbooks with English only but on front AND back.
