Indeed, i first ordered this one, i think this will be a blu-ray amaray with a exclusive SLEEVE.

I doesnt mention anywhere that this is a steelbook. I therefor cancelled this order and went with the steelbook. The other one clearly mentions that its a steelbook,

I aint taking chances on this one.

I've only ordered once, but when i bought 2012 - it was sent in a card-box box/sleeve (just big enough for the product) no bubble-wrap or protection really. Fortunately, it was delivered without any dents. I don't know if this is the case for every shipment.

So, they are both steelbooks ????? Is the only difference that the TRIPLE PLAY edition has a digital copy disc ?

I would like to know if this truly is a steelbook (triple edition). I like the gold colour coating instead of the double play version.

Funny thing is , they are both the same price.

REGARDING THEIR PACKAGING:
I ordered a couple of times from hmv and i always got it in a cardboard box. Not like amazon, but just a simple cardboard box. The box doesnt have bubblewrap filling inside.

Still thinking about getting the steel book version..... is it normally available in their stores or is it a web exclusive?

sniffer · 07-23-2010, 01:30 PM

Both, but stores have a very small quantity and they go pretty quick!

I just pre-ordered the DoublePlay steelbook. I have no use for Digital Copies, so I judge which version to get on cover art and although both are ruined by the banners at the top, I much prefer the design without any border around it.

I would'nt jugde a book by it's cover. My guess is that there wasn't enough space to mention the Steelbook. From what is seen of the packaging, it has all the signs of a steelbook.

tristan2 · 07-23-2010, 02:52 PM

i just punched in STEELBOOK in their blu ray section and it only comes up with the 2 disk version

This.

Lack of space to mention SteelBook. The picture clearly shows a SteelBook.

Re-ordered again

I just ordered both versions just to be sure.

World_War_BLU · 07-23-2010, 03:29 PM

I have never ordered from Hmv before. Do they charge you when it's ready to ship, like amazon?

The Triple play edition is a steelbook. If you click into it under product info and reviews it now states that its a steelbook. Got in touch with the facebook page which is more helpful than you would expect and whoever runs the page confirmed it!

Awsome, thanks!

benzgrl · 07-23-2010, 04:49 PM

Are these pics really the way they will look? Possible for an updated pic as we get close to actual release date? The "Double Play" / "Triple Play" is terrible! I know they just updated the pic on The Robin Hood Steel removing some wording, so could an updated pic be possible or is this final?

I agree, I prefer the Double Play Steel w/ the the red background instead of the gold border on the Triple Play, but I want the DC.
