The Thing (1982): Universal 100th Anniversary Edition (Play.com Exclusive Steelbook) - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

springjack · 02-03-2012, 11:00 PM

Well, just got the French 2 DVD Steelbook just for the package, so this will be another must buy.

Omen2002 · 02-04-2012, 02:59 AM

Really really anxious to see what this one will look like. I had been putting off buying the BD but that might change with this news.

vläd · 02-04-2012, 04:53 PM

I would like this one as well if some kind soul could help me out.

RazorwireRyan · 02-05-2012, 02:44 AM

Depends what the artwork is like...already have the awesome slipcover version, but I do love this film so maybe

If I ordered one from Amazon.UK what are the chances of getting the slip?

Zero chances. I bought mine from there and so have others and no one received a copy with a slip (sadly).

grilli · 02-11-2012, 07:10 PM

well I got mine from HMV a couple of months ago for about £5. I'm not sure if the slip is OOP or not but it seems some people receive it with the slip and some people without the slip

Trekkie313 · 02-11-2012, 09:15 PM

I really want the slip so I can put it next to The Thing 2011 and love the bigger artwork.

Henke007 · 02-11-2012, 10:03 PM

How strange i thought i just entered the Steelbook thread about the thing

you did. somebody asked what the slip cover looks like, that's why I posted it

Talyn · 02-12-2012, 05:53 PM

I'm potentially interested depending on whether it's Region Free and the final cover art.... I loved the original The Thing...one of 3 movies as a kid that freaked me the hell out and inspired me to want to write....

I believe all Universal movies are region free unless they are Criterion selections.

samdaman94 · 02-12-2012, 10:44 PM

I'm pretty annoyed about all these re-releases

Because I have the standard amarays of practically all of them and now I will have to pump out shitloads of money to double dip

Might just not bother...have always wanted to pick up American Werewolf so will atleast get that one.

Who told you to double dip? I didn't tell you to double dip!

I just smiled like I've never smiled before.

Artwork now showing on Play.com, IMO, it looks hideous.
