Hands of Steel: Uncut Special Edition (X-cess, Germany)

That theatrical poster is what I always remember about this Terminator-inspired Italian sci-fi action adventure!

To my knowledge, there are 4 Casino steelbooks from France, Germany, Spain, and the UK
Image
To me, this has the best design even though it's identical with the UK release. At least, the picture is vertical :wink:

I missed the UK one, so I grabbed this...

The US and Canadian steelbooks have the best cover art, but I've got it on DVD, and I dislike the UK Premium steelbook cover design. This is the second best.

Power Play (Japanese DVD)
ImageImage
- This is the re-release version by Paramount Home Entertainment. The first release was a limited pressing by Stingray that was sold exclusively on their website.
- The difference is that the re-release is a barebones with only the English audio and Japanese subs, the Stingray release includes all of the extras found on the Scorpion Releasing DVD plus a Japanese dub.

Image
- On screen texts (from top to bottom): Play, Scene Selection, Japanese Subtitles ON/OFF, Theatrical Trailer.

Love and Bullets (Japanese DVD)
ImageImage
- This and a Scandinavian DVD are the only anamorphic widescreen releases available up to now.
- The film is accompanied by a very nice harmonica score by Lalo Schifrin.

These screencaps were taken from my laptop and may look even better (positively thinking :)) when viewed on an HDTV:

One of my favorite Cronenberg's films. Glad I pre-ordered this. It's OOP now.

I did not want to get this initially but the steelbook design and the extras are too good to pass up. Of course it's the two lead actors that matter.

I decided to get this cheaper edition as the other one is a lot more expensive and terribly designed.

Those NSM Records releases look sweet. Not seen a title that has made me want to drop the cash just yet though. Amityville Horror was close....

Considering the price and my purchase priority, I am very selective when deciding to buy mediabooks. I have two other mediabooks on my wishlist, but I have been putting off getting them since they are double-dipping titles.

Mediabooks released by NSM Records, '84 Entertainment and XT Video are some of the best out there. However, sometimes they churn out ugly variants of artworks just for the sake of releasing three variants of the same title :roll:
