Don't think that'll be the steelbook edition as it states usual price is 7.99

it's listed as a pre-order steelbook. So worth a punt and just send it back if it turns out not to be a steel

The weird thing is, if you go down the page and go to the Seven SB link, there is a pic of the Heat SB as it should look in the 'Customers who bought this item' area.

Got my dispatched email from Play for my copies of Sherlock Holmes, I Am Legend & Se7en last night. Really looking forward to seeing what these look like in person (I love the two Nolan Batman films in the similar style that amazon.jp did)

Anyone else worried these wont have inside artwork? Really thought we would have seem some by now.

[rickah88]

I quickly scanned through the thread for any inside/rear artwork, I find it hard to believe it hasn't been posted yet? Did I miss something?

Because we are still a bit off from release date.

You are correct sir. Its worrying because the Disney wave, (Armageddon, Con-Air) ect didnt have any inside artwork posted and of course they didnt come with any. But having said that, some of the Universal 100 steels didnt have inside artwork posted like The Thing but it did come with it. So will these Warner steels have any? Anyones guess.

The two steelbooks I got in this style from amazon.jp both had inside art work for what it's worth

Ah I see. Well I guess I'll hold off until I hear definitively. Can we get the UN to pass some sort of legislature stating the steelbooks are required to have interior art, starting CY13?

Anyone noticed HMV have changed the artwork on their website for Inception? No white colour scheme anymore, wonder if that's an error on their part or if the artwork for Inception has indeed changed?

Of the entire wave Inception always did look like the odd one out, wasn't in line with the others in Warner wave on amazon.jp earlier in the year either (albeit neither was Sherlock Holmes)

it has changed on amazon too, odd. Please let there be some uniformity in this collection. I ordered all of them as I thought all the white one's would be quite collectible.

It still has a white spine on the mock-up which looks damn odd. Still, we all know how mock-ups often don't end up being the same as the released version.

I actually don't want a set of white steelbooks with blue tinted images on the front, while it makes for a nice set I guess, the films in that set are in no way related to each other. Seven is another one where white really doesn't go, Blade Runner should have been black as well (the Canadian version was perfect).

I think you know what I mean. Yes, they're all released by Warner but that's not really something linking them together as actual films. It's like putting out a boxset containing Batman Begins, The Exorcist and Scooby-Doo!, where's the connection?

[Andy CYP]

Some people are starting to receive these and can confirm they do have inside artwork. Happy days!

No I know, but I disagree, for example there was no relation to the Paramount Centenaries other than they were classic titles so it seems logical that a Warner Premium collection should include some of their classic titles even if they are not related by genre etc

I got Troy and Seven just now. Hermes left it outside my door which is good cos I don't have to go to the sorting office but damn, anyone could have taken it.
