True Romance 4K Steelbook (Zavvi Exclusive) (UK) - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Does Zavvi have a pre-order price guarantee?

AlanUK · 04-30-2021, 06:33 PM

I have the original steelbook so this is a easy pass for me, but Arrow have this also without the steelbook for £25.

I won't buy from Zavvi anymore.

The steelbook cover is the only one that features ok artwork I think. The zavvi exclusive case for the slipcover is just awful. I’m surprised it got the go ahead.

Also I usually quite like textless steelbook covers but if they’d included the text which features on the j-card it would look even nicer.

So glad I never over paid for the og SteelBook

BrandonJF · 04-30-2021, 08:21 PM

I don't think I've ever received a box - chipboard or otherwise - arrive undamaged from Zavvi.

That's British pounds, not Euros. Almost $20 more.

I decided to go without the fluff. The SteelBook looks really nice. I'm upgrading my black-and-white one.

That looks like Christian Slaters half blood cousin maybe, but they definitely missed his likeness.

Hellboy · 04-30-2021, 10:09 PM

Expensive but a must have for me so I bit.

Jado3Dhead · 04-30-2021, 11:43 PM

I don't understand all the hate for the cover art. I think it looks great.

InBruges · 05-01-2021, 02:10 AM

well damn. thats an easy pass.

cheecheung · 05-01-2021, 02:44 AM

What does the Zavvi steelbook 4K deluxe edition contain that is £10 more expensive than the standard Zavvi steelbook? Is it the art cards, posters and rigid case? When I looked at the specs it says 60 page booklet but standard release says 32 page booklet. Is this a mistake?

houseca · 05-01-2021, 04:16 AM

Are there any Zavvi Coupons that can be applied to pre-orders?

Just re-read your own post. You pointed out all of the differences.

cyclorama · 05-01-2021, 05:26 AM

Another SteelBook where most of the folks in Europe like it but half the people here don't.

I don't believe so since Zavvi's prices rarely change from when they are announced to the day they are released unlike Best Buy and Amazon where they overprice it and then reduce it by 5 bucks.

They have the regular non-Zavvi for $46.99.

I remember watching this when it was on tv the first time and I didn't like it. I like the artwork color palette, might get it but so many options. Obviously the newly-commissioned artwork from Arrow is always horrible so looks like the steelbook is the way to go for me, just need to decide which of the two.

I thought the booklet thing might be a mistake.
