^ Did you keep your Alien head Paul or did you sell that too when you disposed most of your LEs? It would look good on your shelf beside the Alien head.

It took me quite a while to figure out what this is. LOL It's the alien pala holding on to her egg (am I right?). At first I thought it was that creature from Tremors. LOL Really not a big fan of the Alien Anthology...

Amazon DE is releasing an Iron Man 1 & 2 SteelBook. Looks like we will be getting what we wanted, a cheaper option to iron man 1 SB.

http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B003X26SN0?ie=UTF8&linkCode=xm2&camp=1638&creative=6742&creativeASIN=B003X26SN0&tag=bluraycom04-21

No artwork yet but speculators say that it's probably going to be similar to either the Batman Begins/TDK flipper steel or similar to FF 1 & 2 steel. Personally, I would've wanted a release similar to the New Moon SB + empty Twilight steel but I suppose that's not going to be the case with this one. $:-\$

Let's wait for further details on artwork, price, etc.

Probably quite expensive... where else can one get an egg of that species? LOL

But really, it's a good thing no one wanted the Alien Head. Now you get the chance to own both LEs and display them proudly on your shelf.

Would've preferred a separate release

BTW, I've read that the alien egg will be available in the US. Checked amazon and it's still not listed though

Which is a more kick-ass SteelBook?

UK

Germany

Apparently UK has a kick ass inside artwork. Hope this is confirmed

Then can we just flip the steel inside out so we can have a kick ass cover? LOL

Seriously, I do hope it's for real. I'm also waiting for confirmation.

Got my Ninja Assassin German Steelie today. It's my first flipper steel.

Sealed

Opened

I'm quite surprised by the Clash of the Titans German Steel (Kampf der Titanen) release with that craqueled/cracked laquer finish similar to 10,000 BC. Looks really stunning... It comes with a slipcase too!

Pic 1 (slipcover)
Pic 2 (front)
Pic 3 (back)
Pic 4 (inside art)

Pics are not mine. They are from Vampire of bluray-disc.de

Got my Edge of Darkness Australian steelie yesterday.

A couple of things I liked so much about this steelbook:

Text/Title is debossed

Very nice, clean, and simple artwork at the back

and the matte finish.

I am, overall, very pleased with this steelbook.

Blu-devil · « **Reply #465 on:** Aug 07, 2010 at 05:58 PM »

That does look sweet, can't wait to receive mine on Tuesday.
Thanks again Mary Ann.

For those who have Gladiator UK SteelBook

Universal Pictures launches Gladiator Blu-ray disc replacement program

Mine's from Germany and I'm still trying to find out if they can replace mine

BTW, Germany also has a re-release of Gladiator, not sure though if this is the remastered version. Can't seem to find any re-release of Sapphire from US

coffeetiger · « **Reply #467 on:** Aug 09, 2010 at 10:24 AM »

Cool! Thanks for the link! I hope you get yours replaced too...

RNIverson · « **Reply #468 on:** Aug 09, 2010 at 08:08 PM »

BTW, decided to keep my Kick-Ass preorder from Germany just in case we'll get another surprise packaging

A slipcase like Sherlock would be nice

The upcoming cluster of Paramount titles due for release by Amazon.DE on 19th August will apparently have stickered and NOT printed FSK labels. This is very good news.

Another PDVD member bought Paranormal Activity Aussie Steel... If my memory serves me right, I think it was sir ThePatriot.

Anyway, I didn't get Paranormal Activity although I was tempted to (I heard the steelbook looks really nice with embossing/debossing and clean artwork)... but I didn't get it because i didn't want to spend money on something that will scare the living daylights out of me! LOL

RNIverson · « **Reply #473 on:** Aug 11, 2010 at 09:07 AM »

Yep, Paranormal aussie SteelBook also has a debossed title. Seems like an EzyDVD trademark? Got my copy yesterday. I really need a region-free player fast as my regB titles are piling up

Paranormal Aussie steel is region locked? See? buti na lang di ko binili! hehehe. Edge of Darkness is region free.

It's still good to invest in an all-region player though... para di na problema ang region coding.
