I've only ordered the HULK steels - one step closer to getting an Avengers steelbook set..minus Iron Man

Ordered MI4 too.

Any word on how the hell this is supposed to fit 4 discs yet? I'm still convinced that with a well-designed inner tray they could do it.

I reckon it'll be a jumbo like the Jurassic Park trilogy. No official word yet though

Scanavo have redesigned the disc trays. Will be one disc on each side with a tray for the other two discs

Confirmed over at HDN

Nice! Wish they had done that a long time ago. I'd love to be able to just buy the 4-disc G2 SteelBook "guts" for "Monsters, Inc." and "Up," and probably others.

Ain't that an April's Fools joke?

BTW: I forgot but do Play.com charge your card when you order or when they ship? (The former IIRC)

They charge when ship. The confirmation was a few days back so no April Fool

@ my European friends

I'm in need of a few of these Play.com Steels
If any of you guys could help me w/ a couple, please PM me
I'll be glad to return the favor as always of course

Thanks,
-Rod

No sale... I just plain don't like it. (The spine is just a cluttered mess.)
I would have preferred solo steelbook releases with the original theatrical poster artwork. Is that too much to ask for?

Vertigo2010 · 04-03-2012, 05:45 PM

This looks exactly the same as the Italian release I saw at Christmas in Rome. If I recall, it was a steelbook but it was a big one, not the slim one like they're showing on Play.

Check the Amazon IT link:

When is Play.com going to catch up with the times and ship the US? HMV and Amazon does.

Mavrick · 04-03-2012, 05:53 PM

Around the same time as the US exclusive sites

See my info from a few posts back...on the Italian blu ray. Seems like it will be the same....they must have a few empty cases to shift...
