Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras
There are certainly stylistic similarities between this SteelBook and that released for Starship Troopers. It's very angular and symmetrical and
interesting (so often SteelBooks are anything but interesting). This one features "Martians Unite" text in large black letters across the
top. Three red triangles laid atop one another point downward through the SteelBook from top to bottom, the point of the third literally touching the
bottom edge while the base of the first runs along the top of the SteelBook. In the center is a circle with the vertically oriented terraformer hovering
above
the Martian surface. A Federation logo with "R.I.P" graffiti over it appears towards the tip of the bottommost triangle. "Defend the Red Planet" text in
red
runs across the bottom in a black bar, atop of which are several bugs battling two kneeling troopers. The rear panel is simply an enlargement of the
little battle scene depicted on the bottom-front-left portion of the front panel. An artist signature appears bottom right. The spine is a splotchy beige
color, the same as the general front and rear background, with
the film's title in black block letters running along much of its length. A Sony Pictures logo appears at the bottom.
Inside, the digital copy code is tucked underneath the left-hand-side tabs. The two discs, one UHD and one Blu-ray, are situated on the right in
staggered-stacked formation. The inner print is a two-panel spread that features nothing but a reflective red shiny surface.

Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation
Hooray for a SteelBook that actually has identifiable design cues and purposes. This is one of the nicer SteelBooks on the market, along with
Starship Troopers. The on-disc content is meh, but the SteelBook is fantastic. Highly recommended.
