Steelbooks in the Zavvi Disney collection that have titles:

Aladdin
Jungle Book
Little Mermaid
Wreck-it Ralph
Planes
Fantasia
Peter Pan
Lady & the Tramp
Dumbo
101 Dalmatians
Alice
Bambi
Cinderella
Mary Poppins
Robin Hood
Pinocchio
Herculles
Mulan
Hunchback
Aristocats
Rescuers
Pocahontas
Fox+Hound
Snow White
Lion King
Sleeping Beauty
Tangled
Tarzan
Beauty+Beast
Big Hero 6
Emperor's New Groove
Sword in the stone
Brother Bear
The Princess and the frog
Treasure Planet

= 35

+ other Disney Steelbooks from Zavvi:
Alice in Wonderland (Tim Burton) (Title on spine only)
Oz
Frankenweenie

+12 Pixar steels with title

= 50 total.

The only ones that don't have a title are those that share a world-wide print run. Like Frozen.

Which Zavvi exclusive Disney animated/Pixar releases don't have titles on the spine?

Jungle Book, Zootropolis, Good Dinosaur, Cinderella, Frozen, Finding Dory, Monsters University

So my original statement "a handful at best" at those that do have titles is an exaggerated statement, but there's still a good number of the Zavvi Disney steelbooks that don't have titles on the spine.

I was going off by what is on their website. Thus the cause of the mix-up. I didn't know all of those were previously released.

[art tba version was there as of 1 or 2 days ago]

At least this Zavvi one doesn't have pictures filling up the spine then

[rickah88]

I'd rather have pictures on the spine than nothing. Granted not as good as having a title, but at a least it's easily identifiable.

Is this region free? I really wanted Best Buy or another store to do a steelbook on this but that's not happening.

I know this is a UK release so I'm just curious if it will be region free in the states.

Most Disney releases are with the exception of a couple so I would assume so

I was on their website and I didn't see any info about it being region free. It's getting released on Aug. 22nd. It hasn't sold out so maybe I'll just wait until it releases and see if it gives more info. Really nervous about getting it without knowing it's region free. I'm gonna email and ask the site just to be sure.

Understandable. Zavvi's website, a lot of the time, will specify region 2 or B but after getting them home they were in fact region free. Like I said Disney usually is free even when it says region B (2) but better to be safe than sorry

Steelbook itself should match every other release.

Pretty horrid One steel will be shipped in a thin cardboard mailer

So if I order 3, it should be in some sort of box?

Yeah. I believe so. I'm not sure they would an envelope type mailer for that. The next question would be whether or not they use ample padding to keep them from moving around in that box. You could always place the order and then use the customer service option to message them and ask to make sure they package it safely. Not saying that would help out any but it might be worth a shot.

This is how my shipment was the other day. I had 13 steels (the Star Trek ones and a couple others). The box they used was just big enough for all the steels to fit and they used no padding around them to protect the insides. So if the box would have been crushed/damaged in any way, the steels would not have survived.

I received four packages this year so far from Amazon.it and I have been lucky.

I don't usually order more than two movies though.

THANKS!!!

I guess its a risk Ill take. I tried ordering Jungle Book, Civil War and Star Trek Beyond, all 3 will be shipped together(unlike Amazon US where they will ship once each item is available) cuz it says 1 shipment(Ill get it December lol), so heres hoping all will be well.

By the way, off topic, is FOX mostly region free? wanna order X-Men Apocalypse as well. Being from Asia, I cant order from Best Buy cuz they wont accept non-US card.

There's a slight chance they may still dispatch them whenever they become available. You can't always trust Amazon to keep that 1 shipment thing intact. They've messed up me combining things together quite often

Only time I've seen Fox lock stuff recently is on 3D releases. Usually the 2D BDs are Region Free

Hmmmm... I tried choosing to ship each item separately, it charged me more, so I chose to ship them in one shipment(when all are released, hence Star Trek's release date). Theres a chance they will actually still ship separately?

And thanks again!
