Does anyone know about these?

A friend of mine knows I love steelbooks and he saw this advertised at JB Hifi.

This is the first time I've heard of these cases. From what I can tell, they're a new special kind of Amaray case with interchangable covers. They are also made by Scanavo, famously known for their steelbooks.

I still prefer steelbooks tbh, I am currently doing a GB for the Ripley Edition (http://collectorsedition.org/forums/showthread.php?t=16430), but if someone wants me to pick this up for them, let me know.

Is it in the regular steelbook size (G1 and G2)?

It won't be a steelbook!!!
It'll be crappy plastic case like this:

It's made from plastic, not metal.

Just wondering if anyone got this edition? I am interested to see how the Frame case and art cards look in real life, if someone has it can you please post pictures :)
I got the Ripley edition with steelbook from EB, but just found out about this frame case from JB, wondering if it's worth me tracking down, I love all things alien, have many versions of the movies collectors editions.

A member here got me to get him a copy.

The case is nice, the artcards aren't separate though, there's the front and back with cards inserted. They are removable and reversible, which results in four covers. A little misleading actually. <_<

I thought they had scrapped these FR4ME cases due to negative collector feedback? I know a lot of Blu-Ray collectors hated them
