Disapointed by the artwork choice. WE WANT THE STYLE A POSTER BY ROGER KASTEL
1Zavvii chose the best poster for the EP IV steelbook and teased the best poster for the upcoming EP VI Steelbook. So why in the world did they chose this artwork for EP V instead of the beautiful style A poster? Of course it's a five stars for the best movie ever, but it's a one star for this awful choice, so yup this is truly a Star War. Please Zavvi : reconsider your choice for the sake of both beauty and consistency of our collections. A lot of us want the “Style A” poster better known as the “Gone with the Wind” poster by Roger Kastel

Collectors Dismay
1Steelbooks are a premium niche item that certain collectors purchase. These are people, like me, that get annoyed when spine designs and fonts change mid release so they dont line up or look uniform on the shelf (BBC's Doctor Who releases are a great example of this). People who like the continuity of a great collection (Star Trek 50th Anniversary movie releases were great example of this), and people who are the reason that small business have started to produce spine magnets to appease the demand for uniformity. This artwork is terrible though I have still ordered for me and memebrs of my family I do hope it is changed to one of the more artistic movie posters to match the release of a new hope and hopefully return of the jedi. I was hoping for the Drew Struzan posters for the three that we will probably get with the prequel trilogy, but a set of three with the original art posters is equally as attractive....... this is not good. I hope Disney get the message

Bonkers Decision
1Absolutely bonkers decision to go with this artwork. It completely goes against the style of episode four and episode six, both of which we obviously know what they will look like. In my opinion whoever sanctioned this particular release should be sacked or at least made to go listen to Jar Jar Binks for five hours straight.

Awful
1Out of all the artwork that could be used. This is the best you can come up with? I pre ordered in hoping the artwork will change. If not I will be cancelling all of the steelbooks

Disappointing that the main theatrical poster not used!
1Unfortunate decision to use the teaser image instead of the main theatrical one. This steelbook stands out like a sore thumb between the theatrical ones used on the Star Wars and Jedi steelbooks. PLEASE RECONSIDER ZAVVI!!!!!

Image
5Possibly not the best image out of the official posters from 1980, but zavvi don't own the image , Disney do .. your all gonna buy it in the end regardless

Disappointed
2While I do agree that this is part of the original movie posters back when this was released it is not one I recognised. You guys do have a habit of breaking up iconic sets with mediocre covers. There are far better ones that flow with the epic cover of a New Hope. I doubt it will change but I really hope you guys listen to the feedback and seriously consider it.

Artwork ...meh
1Even though this is based on the 1980 Original Advance Movie Poster I still think one of the other theatre posters would have been a better chose for the artwork. A little more eye catching.

Needs to change
1Ordered hoping a change will be announced, if not I will be cancelling this and won't be buying the others either. Zavvi, stop ignoring us and tell us you're trying to correct this.

Disappointing and inconsistent
15 stars for THE best Star Wars film in the saga. However, if I could, i'd give this Zavvi exclusive ZERO stars for the worst artwork. I will be dropping all my SW pre-orders if you keep it.
