RoboCop (1987) Limited Edition 4K UHD

[Jim Di Griz]

Aw god sod off!!
I'm not buying this damn film again! I'm not! No way! Kiss my backside! 4k scan for the extra footage???
Nnno! I don't care! It looks great on blu...it's really pretty decent, I'm more or less happy with what I've got...i mean it's still the same film , yeah?



Pre-ordered...for Gods sake.

Well give the man a hand!

I've pre-ordered the steel for now and see what happens. Your idea of getting the boxset and putting the steelbook in that isn't a bad one mind...

I decided to do something similar.

I picked up a Blu-ray boxset for £13 off Ebay and expect to recoup at least half that back from selling the film. I will then add my 4k steelbook and, hopefully, end up with a “deluxe” Steelbook edition for the same price as the Limited Edition.

A bit of a rigmarole but worth the hassle.

The question is do I get the Zavvi exclusive Steelbook with the original artwork or the Collector's Edition that will accompany my The Thing Collector's Edition nicely....?

Collector's Edition that will accompany my The Thing Collector's Edition nicely....?

The steelbook is really nice. Proper artwork unlike the limited edition and The Thing LE too come to that.

This reminds me of one of my favourite Simpsons quotes:


Flight attendant: "Sir, what would you like for dinner, a steak, or two steaks?"

Homer: "Can I have both?"

Take a drink every time Paul Boland mentions Zavvi.

Book a liver transplant beforehand.
