Thank you for posting the pictures, Krypto. Since it is the first post after the OP I won't bother posting them there as well

Bruisermoore · 02-11-2015, 04:25 PM

I think I need this, looks pretty amazing.

Edit: I just noticed the price. $31 is a bit steep, I do believe I'll be passing on these.

SilverBlade · 02-11-2015, 04:25 PM

Ew. No thanks.

Hideous artwork.

These were kept pretty quiet. Been needing an X-Men First Class one to complete my collection....just means I'll want to buy the others too. Wonder if they're doing the other movies too?

MifuneFan · 02-12-2015, 03:21 PM

So, I've been racking my brain a bit. The way the image is kind of distorted, can anyone tell me who that is? I've heard both Patrick Stewart, and Kevin Bacon, but the most logical to me would have been Fassbender.

GenPion · 02-12-2015, 03:28 PM

Clearly that is Magneto (Fassbender).

Not a big fan of the art but I like it OK. Wish it was something else, though. May eventually get it because I really wanted the other X Men steelbooks A LOT but was disappointed there were no clean print options for this film -- and that the less nice one available was OOP to boot.

I was (and probably am still) sure it's Fassbender , and then when someone mentioned Bacon, my head could totally see some resemblances there too. He did wear the helmet in the movie as well

Maybe the six degrees of Kevin Bacon works on cover art too.

Smigro · 02-13-2015, 12:01 PM

I couldn't care less, but to me it looks too old to be Kevin Bacon.

thewerepuppygrr · 02-13-2015, 02:17 PM

Phew, my wallet will be thanking me - I think all of these new X-Men steels are butt-ugly.

BigNickUK · 04-10-2015, 07:38 AM

These are now available from Xtravision (HMV Online) for £15.99

PJM · 04-10-2015, 08:45 PM

I've cancelled mine. I just can't live with the artwork. I mean I can only instantly recognise one character and even then couldn't tell you if it's young or old version.

redphoenix · 04-10-2015, 09:02 PM

Bummer this is the only artwork they could get approved for WWA for this series.

Did any one else notice the artwork for all the steels in this set is the same as the artcards for the KimchiDVD X-Men DOFP steel?

I actually like the front but I wouldn't buy it over 10$ and the back and inside suck.

Retro81 · 06-01-2015, 08:46 AM

I'm not getting this due to lack of funds but wanted to say that I only just watched this film last week and really enjoyed it.

dangermice · 06-01-2015, 09:53 AM

$10 each is what I'll pay. These will go on sale very soon and since they're not exclusives, would be able to get from multiple locations online.
