The big "3D" is printed on rather than a sticker, unfortunately, but other than that, I really like this steel.
Please, check tracks/subs.
Thanks

Well that's the whole point; it doesn't need to be so prominent. Make it a sticker for when people are buying it, and if they need reminding it's 3D once they bought it it says so on the spine (and the disc inside). For such a long title already it just seems a bit much to me to be adding yet more text. Why not have them go the whole hog and write "From J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 3D and 2D 2-Disc Special HMV UK Exclusive Steelbook Edition* *(Does not contain 4K UHD, DVD or VHS versions)"?!

Lol. Well, I'm not quite sure what you mean, or thought you meant(?), but it's just my opinion... some people might like the '3D' bit being printed on... and that would be fair enough too

Got mine today too. The "3D" is making my eye twitch whenever I spot it (especially when you compare it to the Best Buy 4K release). Better put it on the shelf soon and look at the nice spine to forget about it

Did it survive unscathed though (I hope so)?

Oh, I thought you meant only in an envelope/jiffy bag. Random, but great then.

the italian Steelbook looks much better. Whether it will get to you intact is another matter...

I'm surprised the text is in english!

Don't know where you guys see spot gloss on this. For me spot gloss is like on the world wide Thor release where you have the feeling as if an extra glossy image is stuck on the matte steelbook. Can't see this on the niffler, gold coins or case

What is it about the Italian steelbook that makes it look much better than the HMV UK edition? I received the HMV steelbook today (thank you cudzndrips) and I was a bit disappointed that the title has no debossing/embossing. Still, glad to have it. That money-hungry duck on the cover is really cute.
