I wonder if Universal will ever give these flicks steelbooks here in the states.

Would make a good tie-in with the Blu release of the Cruise version, which should be somewhere around late Sept./early Oct. Can totally see these as a retailer exclusive then.

Maybe these will be released elsewhere with English titles.

J-cards only. Most likely a world wide release steelbooks.

I am guessing the US gets a slipcovered release.

That would be nice. Or even better(imo), let the US get all these with some Reel Heroes steelbook treatment. That could look pretty awesome.
I would buy both sets!

They just look beautiful

These are 15 Euro each. I like the artwork except for Frankenstein. Don't know what hell is going on with those legs.

It's a perspective drawing. The legs are closer to the eye line so they appear larger.

Perhaps I'm not familiar with that image, but the monster's pose looks odd to me.

Dammit, these are too pretty. I hope the steels themselves are titleless so I don't have to buy them.

You mean on the spine?

I hope and the art behind and interior do not disappoint us

I definitely won't buy them if there's no title on the spine. But I also prefer the title to be on the front.

Guessing these are going to B-locked?

Universal is inconsistent but these are strictly German.

These will be region free. They'll probably be available throughout Europe. They are already listed in the Nordic countries at cdon.com.

[rickah88]

Kind of surprised there is no word of these popping up in other areas of the world. Hint: North America!

I preordered all 7 earlier today, these are just epic! I haven't placed an order from AmazonDE in a while, but I was only charged €3 for shipping on all of them. That's a pretty good deal, even better when VAT was removed.

Amazon.de has them defaulted at Region B/2 — is this a grain of salt situation? Are Universal releases usually region free despite the online specs?

Three Euros? How come Rick? Is there a special deal on?
