Artwork is just “passable.” Nothing very exciting. I hope BluFans can show us some artwork before this ships though. I have a feeling that I will most likely prefer their version.

Yep. That’s what I did for Avengers: Infinity War and it seems like my path for this one and Solo.

Sucks, can't afford to double dip but since 4k/3d combos are a thing of the past we have no choice...

sucks they make us choose and is probably the biggest reason am no wanting a 4k TV - I refuse to lose or swap out my 3D collection

Doesn't Blufans always use the theatrical poster? Shouldn't be any different here.

No. On occasion they have had no choice. However, they always fight for something more unique and exclusive. If it was just a matter of theatrical posters being their artwork, they wouldn’t take so long to reveal the official artwork.

Thought they took that time to come up with the back/inside. TBH I don't keep on top of every single release they do, the only Blufans MCU I have is GotG Vol. 2.

I didn't realize that the release date for this is December 4th, when the US release date is 10/16! 6 weeks seems like a lot longer than the usual 4-week lag that Disney/Marvel movies that been getting lately.

Anyone know why this one in particular is releasing so much later?

The film was delayed due to the World Cup in the UK, and there is always a 4 month lag between theatrical and home releases in the UK, which tends to be a bit longer than the US.

Cancelled mine. Really not a fan of that art. My Zavvi account is full of "cancelled, cancelled, cancelled" I miss the days when steelbooks were nice.

Artwork is ok, but am one of the few who loved the SSD steel of the first.

Same here, loved the SSD just like the GotG cassette tape...just like something different sometimes

As to this zavvi steel I am hoping the honeycomb effect is simular to the embossed layered honeycomb on Novas Antman Full Slip...that was really nice effect

Agreed. Different doesn’t always work but I prefer the attempts


As for the embossing....asking a LOT of Zavvi there

I wouldn't hold your breath - chances are they had the Thor & Guardians ones well in advance, probably pre-boxed up ready to be labelled and dispatched.

Fingers crossed for you though
