Come on Manta you could have done something like this... with a cheap plastic box, a pin, and a magnet.  Oh wait, just kidding😁

Ironically just about to post the Manta Lab Lenticular Full Slip for Godzilla vs Kong.  It is also a beautiful release.

What a great find, congrats! and thanks for the heads up, I’d never known about this Italian store, but trundled over and put a copy of this gem missing from my collection into the basket. For my U.K. colleagues who missed this release back in the day, this came to about £50 with (clearly sturdy) postage. 

Was able to find this thanks to the Media Psychos pages!  Overhead that Italy might get a re-release of this.  Googled it and the Media Psychos site had all the different countries listed.  Clicked on the Italian version and the link to DVD-Store.it was there.  Opened it and found it was available to order.  Read somewhere that the shipping was top notch, and it did not disappoint.

Thanks so much to DVD-Store.it! Finally found TOC Blade Runner, and it arrived pristine.  Their shipping is out of this world, and I attached pictures .  FYI it is still in stock there if anyone else is looking for it!  It arrived from Italy to my front door in the United States in 5 days.

Just got to work, probably best to close the Media Psychos page after those replies😅

They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time Zavvi steelbooks arrive great every time.  😄

Well some recent arrivals didn't go so well. Zavvi released some Everything Blu editions. I keep this series sealed but the Hell Boy 2 they sent was busted open in their extraordinary packing.

 

The second was supposed to be EverythingBlu Hot Fuzz One Click but they sent The World's End Blu-ray, steelbook at least lol.

 

Edit: As I figured this would happen, they are sending a Hell Boy replacement and with the Hot Fuzz sold out I'm sure I'm screwed. "Hot Fuzz Limited Collector's Edition Steelbook is on special order for you with our supplier but at this time they are unable to give me a date for when they will have it back in stock."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sorry to hear that.  So now even if we can somehow get an order into Zavvi before it sells out we have to be worried 1) the package actually arrives, 2) the package survives the trip, 3) the edition is still shrinkwrapped, 4) Zavvi doesn't put a sticker on the actual item, 5) it doesn't have a spine slash (reminiscent of Star Wars steels), 6) the edition is damaged before being packaged, 7) The J card isn't melted onto the steelbook (yes this actually happened), and 😎 Zavvi actually sends the correct item.  Oh dear.  Did I miss anything.🤔

What's their shipping prices run?

Prices for many of the titles are pretty high, but the Disney releases for some reason have very reasonable prices.

There is no charge for shipping to the US.  It is pretty incredible.

Do they have any exclusives? If not then we usually don't list them separately. 

That makes sense.  No, they just seem to have releases from US, UK, Germany, France, and Italy.  Pretty amazing selection, but I don't believe they have any exclusives.  Thanks for the clarification.

I have great admiration for WeET when it comes to the quality of their Marvel releases, even if I don't hold the movies themselves in the same esteem.

If only they could step out of their comfort zone and give the same treatment to a couple of titles other than Marvel, then I have little doubt they would become my favorite Premium retailer, along with Manta and Kimchi.

Agree wouldn't mind seeing some additional non MCU releases as well.  With the MCU demand being high, from a business standpoint more MCU releases is a no brainer .  Since they have that baseline MCU business already, hopefully they can add some additional non MCU entries in the future as their quality is superb.

@extantsrevenge @deckard99 As mentioned Cede.com has the No Way Home steelbook and many other releases.  I have had a lot of success with steelbooks arriving in fantastic condition from them.  I believe it is located in Switzerland, but I do not see an entry for Switzerland in the steelbook forum.  There is a worldwide area but did not see Cede.com info there either.  Is an entry for Cede.com somewhere else?  If not consider adding an entry for Switzerland with Cede.com listed, so we can share steelbook release information with the rest of the psychos.  Thanks so much!

That said, the steel does look fantastic.

Well I would, just not sure my wallet agrees. 😅

Looks sooo good, wouldnt expect any less with WeET. I wish they would do Ant-Man 1 as well

2nd that.  Steelbook shots look gorgeous.  Would happily welcome more WeET MCU releases.

That's great. I did notice as I am ordering WAY less from them. Prices have gotten ridiculous. $51 for a plain ol' steel. Not worth it.  $42 plus shipping and tax. Tax? Why am I now paying tax to UK. 

So I would say I am ordering 1 out every 10 I would have gotten before. 

Cede.com has the Bluray German version of this for preorder, and it is probably the same steelbook for a reasonable price.  Might be worth it to take a look.  Wonder of this will get an SM Life release.

German Bluray steelbook release arrived today.  Pleasantly surprised it is region free.  Don't have a region free player so lucked out.

Oh, I see! Yeah, I just touch up the photos by increasing the black point and slightly increasing the "vibrance". I also adjust the warmth to a little more cooler. 

However you did it.  It looks amazing!  What a fantastic MCU collection. 👏 

Sold out again.  Lasted a little under 2 hours.  Will update the thread again if I see it come back in stock.

Woohooo! Looks like it releases in 3 to 4 months, so we should be hearing something about our orders by spring/summer?

2022 or 2032? 😄  Just kidding.  Personally no issues with CM releases yet, but I have read the other threads.  Hope it truly is 3-4 months.

Fullslip back in stock on Weet website.  If interested.

Arrived a little less than a month ago but just wanted to say thank you to Media Psychos for my first CM edition.

@extantsrevenge.  My submission for the Media Psychos steelbook award is also back on page 4 if you are in an award giving mood🤞

I'm trying! Hopefully it doesn't hit in the middle of the night or while I'm at work.... This will be my very first GB. I don't even care which version I get. I only want the Steelbook itself.

Technically it looked like it dropped at 3:30 am US eastern time.  Casually woke up when alarm went off to get ready for work.  Opened Media Psychos to find this feeding frenzy.  Best of luck to all!

An appetizer arrived while my WeEt set is in transit.  Zavvi will never be confused for a premium, but this is a very nice looking box.

Got mine this morning.  Slip is very thick and of good quality.  Here are some pics of it

After reading the posts, seeing the pictures, and missing out on the brief Zavvi restock weeks back, I finally went the aftermarket route. More expensive than Zavvi price, but this is a great looking box and happy to own it.  Also actually fits in the SCF4 case (box is a little thin for the case but just happy it fits).  The Zavvi original Dune and A Clockwork Orange boxes are too wide for the SCF4 cases or any of the cases I own.
