Mine too, but then Zavvi have a track record of delivering products so far after release day that it’s practically obsolete by the time it arrives.

Finally! Mine came later yesterday
Hope you've got yours by now michealclarke,
Won't be able to see it till at least the weekend though. And will be able to see the 3D version later in the month (don't normally care about 3D usually), as going to visit my good friends in London and they want me to bring this and they have a 3D TV

I now see Title on Spine is back being a regularly thing for Zavvi! Must of got tired of us lot complaining! I'm glad they are now back doing it, but the previous releases that don't have spine titles look so odd in my collection. The worst idea for a design is when they had character faces along it

Received mine yesterday, but it has loose disc inside.

Messaging With Zavvi to try to get a replacement.

They offered me 25% discount, and i said that doesnt help me with a 100% useless item.

They want me to open the steelbook to see if discs are fine, an opened steelbook is equally useless (as i already own a version to watch), and if the discs are ok, which they probably are, they would still refuse me the replacement..

Forgot that I stopped buying from Zavvi for a similar case a while back

Honestly... I'm with them on this one. The discs are probably 100% fine. Happens all the time that discs get loose during trabsport. The 25% is pretty generous if you refuse to open it.

And how is the steelbook useless if you open it?!

Im never selling, I've purchased for display in a room with 204 other Sealed steelbooks, and would like it to be 100%.

I have UK + US version of all Marvels to date (no us for phase one + IM3 though)

Sealed with loose disc is the lesser of two evils, but would prefer a mint one..

You'll be delighted to know that...

It's still not here!

Honestly if Amazon had the MCU exclusives, I doubt Zavvi would still be around in any form.

I've had many steelbooks come with loose discs that I didn't plan on opening. I ended up opening them in the end.

Made me grind my teeth together towards the end of the video when he's rubbing the steelbooks against each other.

I didn't do any rubbing. I only put them on top of each other. I guess you are one of those people similar to those that I see post over at HDN that nearly cries every time I make a slit with my machette aka a craft knife!

Didn't know it was personally you in the video......but turn the volume up there's some definite rubbing sounds going on.
Didn't someone put out the first steelbook that did have the title on the spine that's the same Walkman design?

No. Walkman never had a title on the spine. If there was one released, I would have purchased it. I despise spines without titles!!!

Ok.....maybe it was just the interior that was different then. I agree about disliking no titles on spines. Not sure why the US Doctor Strange was no title here but the UK had one. Then we had Ant-Man with a title and the rest of the world didn't.

Another day, another non-delivery from Zavvi. Time to send them another email, 4 days on from the estimated delivery date is taking the piss a bit.
