My store had the Indiana Jones ones out yesterday.

Riverside, California for the curious.

Wooden Lens · 01-08-2015, 05:53 PM

Does it bother anyone but me that these Studios can't seem to look past the same damn movies over and over for these exclusive packaging?

I'm in awe that those Best Buy Pop Art Steels even existed considering the titles they released.

Paramount can't stop re-releasing the same damn movies in various metal/steel cases and it's becoming a bit comical.

Yes, I know the Indie Films haven't had any versions of new packaging yet but this could have easily had been a spring board to introduce new films with this unique packaging.

neoz · 01-08-2015, 05:54 PM

They might be in store only. I am trying to get the DPCI but so far now dice.

Not sure, I just saw them out and my curious self looked at them buuuuuut... I have the German Steelbook of the complete set so I didn't bother to price check them. Sorry.

If I swing by the store again, I'll check.

neoz · 01-08-2015, 08:33 PM

Hmm if these are coming out around the 18th there was no mention of them in the ad.
I bet they will be high $14.99 if I had a guess.

Leonidas King · 01-08-2015, 09:03 PM

Oh I'm loving the Super 8 one.

Uncontested · 01-08-2015, 09:41 PM

Didn't most of these just get BB Steels? o.O

I agree, but these look pretty damn nice! Short of Godzilla, have there been any other embossed Metalpaks released in the US?
Sorry to report my store didn't have any of these out. I'm guessing if 1/18 is the release date, my store won't put them out until then. I wish all release were on a Sunday.

imsounoriginal · 01-09-2015, 01:07 PM

Since I don't already have Super 8 in any form, I may grab that. If Raiders looks nice then I might scoop that too, depending on price/availability.

Those do look pretty nice (was going to say slick again but didn't want any trouble started back up

). Like the embossing treatment. Can I only get the Indiana Jones ones since they matching art makes them all a set...

Don't say "slick"!!!!

If all of these are embossed, this could be a great score of a Metalpak wave! I already like all the artwork, but embossing would just be the cherry on top!

beingjoelmalkovich · 01-09-2015, 11:35 PM

Has anyone seen anymore of these in store yet? I too would like to pick up Super 8 but it is freezing ojt and I am meh on the whole driving to Target for nothing idea. Lazy ha

wolfpackTri · 01-10-2015, 12:11 AM

I don't think they come out until January 18th. The Targets in my area don't have them yet

iscmarkiemark · 01-10-2015, 05:30 AM

I really want to see what the Saving Private Ryan book looks like. Any pics of the list? Or will they look just the like the German ones shown.
?
