Default Re: Fake steelbooks

Wow, this is incredibly concerning and something which I was not aware of previously. Has anybody reached out to Scanavo for comment on this? Surely this is an infringement on their copyright?

Having looked at the Titanfall Steelbook posted on the previous page, I would have bought this thinking it was an original genuine steelbook product. The internal plastic case design is exactly the same as a Steelbook case. Even down to the logo branding. Had you not sat there and counted the squares of the logo from the distant picture, you would not be aware that this is not a steelbook product, but is being advertised as such. Even the tags on the Fantasybox webpage have "steelbook" as a tag. I'm not very upto speed with the latest release of steelbooks and I am not 100% sure on the designs which are advertised on the fantasy box site, but they look awfully similar to the steelbook designs.

I'm sorry to hear that people here have been caught out by these fakes.
