Designs are the same but language on the back card is different. Also the UK versions will have the bbfc logo and the euro ones do not.

Small differences some may say but collectors can be picky - hence why prices are high for the UK versions

I can understand that. Imagine however you have a collection of every UK version steelbook sealed and getting a non UK version just ruins the collection. I admit i have paid extra for a UK version steelbook compared to a Euro same design but certainly nothing near the likes of Jack Reacher. Perhaps one day i might find one at a decent price.

i see where you are coming from i am still mythed though as it is not as limited as t is made out to be, if 2000 they should clearly 2000 uk copies not just limited to 2000 like gi joe one

True limited editions are becoming rarer, especially in the steelbook market. Studios and distributors have clocked on - there is money to be made and Scanavo are more than happy to comply

seems the way now, and games although you get a limited run like koa but they want big money for it
