Hmm looks good to me, should hopefully be receiving mine today.

I agree.

This should've had title embossing and definitely not a matte finish. It's vibrant case that needs to be seen.

Zavvi's getting really lazy with these Steels. They're only advisable to buy if you don't already own the movie, not double dip.

Lew Zealand · 11-30-2013, 11:53 AM

I think it's quite nice actually and the debossing makes a nice change for a Disney steel. It's an improvement on the US 20th anniversary slipcover.

Anyone in the US should be aware that the disc inside appears to be the original UK Region B locked version.

MLabrosc02 · 11-30-2013, 12:40 PM

I actually do like it. If someone can confirm the region that would be great. Thanks!!

Looks very dull to me. Unfortunately this and other recent zavvi steels radiate a strong sense of being under-imagined. A sort of 'meh this will probably do' design philosophy.

The power of Zavvi compels you!

And me too! I ordered this along with Dick Tracy & Zatoichi all for under £30 shipped!

neoz · 12-09-2013, 07:05 PM

Hmm...it's ok. I mean it isn't bad but I have the US BB one so not sure if I "need" this one you know. Good price though, leave it to Zavvi to lowball you at the last moment....tsk tsk

This is not a new steelbook, must be a mistake or an attempt to get rid of old stock for Halloween
