Just about ready to be shipped. Still haven't seen the movie, so looking forward to receiving this and watching.

With potentially 9 of the first 20 Weet WEA being Spider-man titles, can we just call them Spider-Weet. The King of fullslips and the King of spiders: Spider-Weet 🕷. 😄

What's the hold up we are on a 16 day delay. 🤔 😁

Strange France and UK got different steelbooks. No title on front of UK steelbook but there is a title on front of the French one, and artwork on French back while just words on UK back. Seems to be a rarity as they usually match.
Got the French one, can't read any French. Title screen in French, thankfully clicked the right button that started the movie, and it played in English. Whew- 😄

So great to see these released, and so thankful that they are not the Disney 100 series artwork. And what is that... there is actually artwork on the back side and not just a lame symbol.

Unbelievable, I was just watching an unboxing video for this edition 5 minutes ago and came back here to see your post 😅
Very nice edition. As is the case with a lot of WWA steels, the UK ones generally receive full gloss treatment while the US gets matte finish. Definitely prefer the glossy finish and the slipcase is the cherry on top.
For now I’m sticking with my older Zavvi steel as I prefer the artwork on that one, while still hoping someday a proper Premium might get released.
It just varies. With most MCUs the US gets gloss and ROW gets matte or sometimes matte with spot gloss. With these last Universal releases (Jaws and Lebowski) US got matte and ROW got gloss. Paramount Scream ones are also like MCU and US got gloss and ROW matte. Not make or break, but I usually prefer gloss if available.

Thanks to @Gary K I have now been purchasing from Orbit DVD and Diabolic DVD! Both ship safely in boxes. Don't have to worry about how Amazon or Zavvi will send it now thank goodness. This one came from Diabolic DVD.
European steelbook full gloss, I think I read US was zero finish or matte.

Just saw more pics, would expect more with the Supreme edition. The metal poster and larger box aren't that enticing. Will be interested to see how fast these sell, as price is likely going to be significant for Supreme edition. Already got a glimpse of UK price for Titan edition and up there as well.
One big factor is that most, if not all the retailers carrying this are known for crummy packaging. Doesn't matter if the box is now rigid cardboard, instead of dented plastic there will he dented cardboard. Hopefully at least the steelbook is better protected. Not sure worth the risk.

The height and width of the Supreme edition box based on the estimates given are enormous, but depth not so much. I am kind of meh on this. I really would like to see the back of both boxes and the steelbook before making a decision.

I had a question too 🤣
What way does a sheep fart when the sun goes down on a Tuesday 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just no relevant information given🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Basil 😁😁😁
Probably depends on what time the sun is setting, the barometric pressure, and what phase of the moon is expected. All things we still don't have answers for ... 😉

Actually the HMV ones are numbered it looks like (at least on the J cards) and there are 8 of them, but the nonHMV ones are not numbered and are basically at miscellaneous retailers. Looking forward to more of these releases.

Really like these Japanese artwork releases. It would be awesome if Media Psychos had an organized list of these releases, but cannot seem to find one ( @ShadowWarrior 🙏). Unfortunately, they don't seem to be numbered. Definitely looking to add more of these to the collection.

Inception by Manta Lab. Thanks to @Masterblaster @deckard99 @Gary K and crew for the Group Buy and fast/safe shipping. The good news: This is a beautiful set, with an absolutely stunning Steelbook, beautiful Full Slip and Double Lenti, and a one click box with great texture and art. The only weakness of the set, is the Single Lenti, which doesn't have good depth or clarity.
The bad news(for me at least) : On my one-click box, there is a whitish line that runs all the way down the area/crease where the cover opens/bends. I thought maybe I could wipe it off, but that didn't work out. I know I'm one of the few that open these, but this crease discoloration/scratch (whatever you want to call it) is very disappointing, and the lone blemish on an otherwise terrific set. Those that are thinking of opening your sets should check for this. This is a definite quality control issue. #Teamopenitup
I would say the PET slip is completely worthless over the OC, and I hope Manta avoids doing this in the future. It has been removed from the box and will never go on it again.

This topic needs urgent resuscitating.
For Your Eyes Only ?
I am still here, just sick of always being wrong. Any pride I have left has taken a hit. 😆

Looks pretty nice. Is this 101 Films first steelbook release? Haven't really followed this retailer.

I know it's Godzilla, and I have to buy most Godzilla releases, but this movie was just really really bad. Just not sure I need to add another bad movie to my collection.
