Yes. Their October releases were accidentally posted early on Amazon Canada, this was one of the listings.

An official announcement is expected later today.

I will be getting both direct from SF. Those lithographs are awesome!

I was planning on grabbing this because I don’t have the original release, but wow! That artwork is nice!

I was really hoping these wouldn't be one those conformed Shout Factory releases with the generic text. They are so unappealing; I like my Steels to have their own feel, but this one looks really good. Just wish we weren't stuck with the prosaic SF font.

Shout Factory releases some cool films on blu-ray with 4K transfers but I hate all of their steelbooks designs. I own their Humanoids from the Deep steelbook, which to me isn't as bad as some of the others but even that one (like was already mentioned) has the lame generic text.

I hate when they put the new 4K transfers in lame steelbooks with generic text on the spine. It just comes off like a lazy cash grab to me.
