Yes, Paramount always publishes steelbook editions with removable stickers. As for the motifs - it's not far till release now, so there will definitely be some photos soon.

Got this in the mail the other day. Haven't plowed thorugh it all yet but had a quick look at the transfer which is stunning.

I did just wanted to say though...I love Amazon.de. I cannot get over how quickly they ship stuff. Ok, I'm only in the UK but I can order stuff from here and it takes forever. I got my "West" Steelbook on the day it was released in Germany. That's service...thanks guys.

Never seen the movie so it did feel like a new movie

. Great movie by the way. The Steelbook was also perfect imho. Really satisfied with this release.

So does anyone have pics for this?

Just saw an unboxing video for this and my god does this steelbook look nice. This steelbook proves that publishers can put movie details on the back without making it look like crap. Kinda reluctant to buy it though because of the inaccurate foreign text. Any chance of us having a English version?

What a pisser. I just received 3 copies of this and all 3 are dented. I wonder if what they sent me were returns for the same reason.

Was thinking of getting this myself, do you mean in-film or on the cover?

Just on the cover. It translates to 'Play me the song of death'? Though I thought this sounded cool I read several complaints from Germans themselves for the poor translation (probably grammatically incorrect in German). I just wish it was in English.

Yesterdaysnews · 07-28-2011, 05:02 PM

A I see.
The cover text did initally put me off too, but I might plump for it anyhow. I kind of like the alternate translation though

Although that does mean 'Once Upon in America' may have to become something like 'Sing me the Riddle of Murder' or some other such nonsense to fit in

Is this region free? English subs? (can't remember if this movie has any dialogue other than English).

The Finnish title of the film is "Harmonica avenger" (trust me, it sounds cooler in Finnish), and I think the German title is pretty badass. Plus the cover art is a lot nicer than the regular edition! Why couldn't they release this steelbook everywhere?
