im tempted to do the same myself. if they were like the zoom steelbooks then i'd care more.

My regular/book version should be arriving from Amazon today. I felt tempted seeing the Best Buy steelbooks after seeing those pics, but, as some have already stated, I like the overall book and the inclusion of the original posters.

The only thing that will bum the F out is if they release individual steelbooks, with the original poster art for all films. The UK individual steels bother me cause it seems to be the same image presented differently on all 4 cases.

The book is really nice, though. I am somewhat tempted to change my mind and try to build a scratch-free set. I'll probably have to go pick up the steelbook, just in case.... It was not easy to get a scratch free set for the Friday the 13th set and it was impossible for the Mummy set.
In India, all regional language dubbed editions of Hollywood movies are sold with thick paper covers. But these come with plastic pouches that protect the discs from getting scratched by the rough surface of the paper jacket -

A pity about the "grain managment" that's been deployed on JP1, it's not an absolute tragedy but they could've let a bit more of it through without having to go full Sony. It makes it look smudgier than it ought to be, though this is not a Melting Butler situation by any means.

After double checking, I found another nice shot.

05:17 (yellow mosquito)

After that shot the bone and sand scenes start.

On fried bread, Melting Butler is simply redundant.

I have to be honest: looking at the screens it looks like the original Blu-ray without bad video filters (EE, Video noise) but with slight DNR

I expected much better than this but Universal always disappoints with catalog titles...

I just got my package from Amazon and it's much higher quality than the BD package was -- its a sturdy box and very nice book, and all my discs were pristine. Love it!

Chatted with them and they refused me. I will try again.

You can't just cancel and reorder at the lower price? Beats talking to CS.
