I quite liked the Vipco cover....

They're getting quite bad at sending pre-orders out now it seems. I cancelled mine and bought it in HMV today!

Good idea, though I'm not really bothered about making money on it. I primarily ordered the steelbook because i wanted the booklet and was under the impression they were gonna pull a repeat of their Audition tactic and make the booklet exclusive to a super shitty steelbook.

I like Steelbooks, ive yet to damage one or receive a damaged one. But since Zavvi come and raped the market with their patented 'Every Film Thats Ever ****ing Existed Gets A Steelbook' business plan they've lost a large amount of appeal. Also Steelbooks were born for original poster art not all this minimalist abstract bollocks thats seems to be flooding the market.

Tell me about, it took my female scorpion set 4 weeks to arrive, as they took about a week to ship that and then it got lost in the post. Then had to wait for it to get back in stock, which took another week, to resend it, I am only still doing it for the reward points really.

TBH I thought it looked like an upscale.

I got this quite confusing shipping notice from Arrow yesterday...

Hello Vesa .....,

We thought you would like to know that on:

12/09/2016

the following item(s) have been dispatched...

1 x The Hills Have Eyes BluRay (FCD1364)
1 x Matinee Dual Format BluRay DVD (FCD1358)
1 x Slugs BluRay (FCD1366)
1 x Raising Cain Dual Format BluRay DVD (FCD1359)
1 x DeadEnd DriveIn BluRay (FCD1362)

I did ask them a little while ago, that if they could send my Raising Cain BD separately from this order (since it was delayed until January), so that my whole order wouldn't be held until it was released. They agreed to it. But Hills Have Eyes was pushed to early October, so would be weird if they sent that already...!
