Hum, do I get this, or the Tesco pre-order with the extra 500 club card points which will make it about £9 in real money after Quidco. Hummm.

Re: District 9 Exclusive Blu-Ray steelbook £15.99 (pre-order)

I sure hope it looks like this one at futureshop!!

District 9 - Blu Ray Steelbook FS Exclusive - Movies - Future Shop Community Forums

I love the "rugged" kind of ones, and not just a steelbook wrapped in the usual sleeve art work

p.s Sorry if I've gone against the rules of putting a link to another forumy website.

HMV need to pull their finger out and get a picture up ... Like it matters, pre-ordered anyway

They have done now and it looks pretty much the same as the Futureshop steelbook

Whether or not the artwork will change remains to be seen.

Cheers for the heads up. I really hope it is accurate. I do need this steelbook and don't like the idea of trying to get a futureshop version from the bay of fleas
