I actually prefer the VMB's to SteelBooks. I have 12 in my collection, with several FS exclusives on pre-order. Anyway, here are my last two.

Wow bambi is very nice. Never seen it up close like that.

GreatGreg · 08-02-2012, 07:14 AM

BAMBI may be one of my all-time favourites. It might even edge out my previous favourite -- SLEEPING BEAUTY SB.

chantm · 08-02-2012, 12:22 PM

Have these two (besides the empty Disney cases)

However they are real pricey!

PS3_Kiwi · 08-02-2012, 10:15 PM

This is the jewel in the crown ATM for me. Its the Chinese Blufans exclusive (Limited to 1000) of Real Steel with Collector Medallion exclusive to this release. I normally open all of my SteelBooks and VMB's, but I just can't bring myself to open this yet

As Vivas become more popular (and they will), I believe that this will become the FS Iron Man of Metal Boxes.

GreatGreg · 08-03-2012, 02:46 AM

Unfortunately, I don't think REAL STEEL has the fanbase or demand that IM does.

PS3_Kiwi · 08-03-2012, 12:29 PM

Who cares about the movie. Its the case that we collector's want

I also have the FS Iron Man, and its opened.

GreatGreg · 08-04-2012, 03:22 AM

Yes, but with IRON MAN, people liked the movie so there is a greater demand.

REAL STEEL not so much. I wanted this when it first came out, but after reading reviews, I decided against it.

They are nice, aren't they. Glad I got them. As you said, not cheap though.

well, it's not a steelbook (that's the whole point of this thread/subforum). But more to the point of your question, Futureshop at one point sold it in Canada. Maybe they still have some in some stores. Otherwise, there's ebay or the trading forum here (incidentally, I have one for trade only).

lcummins · 09-05-2012, 06:01 PM

The Viva Metal Box list shows Bambi as being released in Canada and the US, but every place I've looked (eBay, Amazon Marketplace, even in the database here) there is no sign of a US version. Was this released as an empty case Best Buy exclusive, or even with the discs, in the US?

dfoles · 09-05-2012, 07:10 PM

Like I'm sure most people's most recent viva box, I got these at my local BB within the past week.
