Regular seems to be best representation of art.

More images of the variant for what it's worth. Although both are excellent, I prefer the whiteout look of the variant. I do like how polarizing the two are for the different tastes out there. This will look great next to the Die Hard variant.

I think the metallics help to give the appearance of weather effects.

Got the metal in a day or so ago. First one! It has really interesting effects on the printing.

This detail really made me smile.

Just received my variant version. The use of metallic inks was really misguided in this case. It not only takes away from the design on the poster, but even when light makes the ink shine it does not good at all. Maybe if they had picked a different color for the metallic inks it would look better, but IMHO this is a fail and I am so relieved I also picked up a regular version.

Just caught up on this thread (yea I know, it's 5 years old but I never had an interest in the print until I saw some pics online that caught my attention) in order to conduct some research. It seems they ditched the rain on the final print, anyone know why?

It's so much better with the rain, to the extent I would totally pick one up if it actually existed. Imagine adding a clear spot varnish layer for the rain, it would transform it into something more gritty/menacing but equally beautiful.

It didn't work when they did a test print unfortunately, which is why they removed it.
