  1. 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- 😄

    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.

  3. 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.

    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 ... 😉

    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.
