Jungle Book (2016) 2D/3D Steelbook (Zavvi Exclusive) (Limited Edition) (UK) - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

I watched Jungle book on Sunday and I would give it a favourable review. Its a good 8/10. I don't know if the big names were justified though. The voices done by Scarlett and Christopher took up about 8 minutes of the movie.

That's a mock-up. Pretty sure there won't even be a title on the spine like their releases since Cinderella.

EFF THAT

If you mean the Film Arena Collection they're costing around £32-£34 now to the UK so all these companies doing the steelbooks and numbered editions etc are all getting a bit greedy with it. Nova were asking about £42 inc delivery for those Force Awakens numbered steelbooks and now they're going for around £60-£90 on Ebay and I couldn't even get one when they were selling them on the site as their servers couldn't handle it. It's all leaving a bad taste in the mouth.

Hey, does anyone know if Zavis Disney steelbook discs are usually region free? I know the website lists it as region 2, but sometimes discs listed as a certain region are actually region free. I really want the 3d which is obviously unavailable in the U.S. if it's definitely region 2, does anyone know where I can grab a region free 3d copy?

I looked through a few in the database, (Frozen, John Carter, few Marvels and more) and they were all Region Free or B, A with C untested. So yeah, but you could wait for confirmation.

~40 = a handful at best?

Is Best Buy not doing a Steelbook on this? Sorry if this was mentioned.

Doubt it, they didn't one for Tomorrowland so I highly doubt they will do one for this or Pete's Dragon.

I would love to see one for Beauty and the Beast but again doubt it.

Disney only seem to be concerned releasing Marvel steelbooks. And even that is pushing it. Be nice if Disney did more SB's but that ship has sailed it seems.

Finally caved and ordered, mainly for the 3D.

ConDers · 08-09-2016, 09:42 AM

Talked myself into going ahead and preordering this today and it's sold out. Hopefully it will become available again. Fingers crossed.

TheHutt · 08-09-2016, 11:11 AM

Get the Italian one.

ConDers · 08-09-2016, 03:09 PM

Nevermind, just preordered. It was only showing sold out for a couple of hours... weird. Zavvi's website likes to toy with your emotions like that.

DK1979 · 08-09-2016, 03:14 PM

There's no title on spine for those wondering... just pictures again

TheGeneral · 08-10-2016, 07:04 PM

At least no character pictures down the spine

I've seen 2 different pics of a steelbook now.. 1 has pics all the way down the spine and that on there has 1 single pic of moglie under the j-card.

Groge511 · 08-10-2016, 07:34 PM

Pictures or not there's still no title on the spine or front. Definite no for me unfortunately. When will they learn

Not sure what version the one you're mentioning with pics down the spine is

this one posted is the one updated on Zavvi's site though, no longer with a "art tba" disclaimer so I assume it's final.

[art tba version was there as of 1 or 2 days ago]

~40? Of the Zsvvi Disney animation collection, there aren't many whatsoever with a title on the spine.

Hmmm, my collection seems to disagree with this.
Which Zavvi exclusive Disney animated/Pixar releases don't have titles on the spine?
