not gonna lie, wish this was the 4k steelbook art

Comicfan · 08-18-2023, 07:00 PM

Hmm, tempting. I buy for the Blu Ray disk so either the Best Buy steelbook or this one is fine for me on that front. Since this is Blu Ray + DVD vs 4k + Blu Ray, the price is a little cheaper but that's not an issue for me. It just comes down to pure art in my case. I like both steelbooks. This sort of matches The Flash Best Buy steelbook(which I pre-ordered) in that the front is the heroes' logo.I think the 4K steelbook front/back art pops a little more for me.I do like the interior of the 4K more. More simple where the interior. on this one is a little busy with that colors scheme on the chosen image IMO. The 4K interior feels more pleasing to my eye

I'll take a day or so to think about it but I'm leaning more to getting the 4K steelbook from Best Buy.

big decision for me is 4K nowadays... i'm always going to buy the 4K version as that's the preferred format to watch in...

it looks cool but why a dvd and no UHD

MifuneFan · 08-19-2023, 04:47 PM

I like this one more than the BB exclusive. Shame it's not 4K as well.

Cuz Best Buy got that exclusive

Wonder if there will be a Walmart Icon edition like there is for The Flash.

Probably not since Walmart is going in on this bluray steelbook.

Comicfan · 08-19-2023, 06:48 PM

Seems to be the new deal with Wallmart and Best Buy regarding some steelbook releases.

Best Buy gets the 4K steelbook (4k + Blu Ray) while Walmart gets a Blu Ray steelbook (Blu Ray + DVD) so far.

Spider-Man: Across The Spiderverse
The Meg 2 : The Trench
Blue Beetle

They both know their markets and customer base.

Walmart should be doing DVD steelbooks then.

Comicfan · 08-21-2023, 02:20 PM

I ended up pre-ordering the Best Buy steelbook.I was going to wait and pre-order it with the Prey steelbook but that still han't gone live yet. Since I get free shipping either way, I figured I'll just order them separately.

I'm buying for the Blu Ray disk so either Blu Ray steelbook is good in that regard but I just like the outer and interior art more on the Best Buy 4K steelbook.I think the color will pop more on the 4k steelbook cover art combined with the images chosen for front and back and I like the interior art more.

I did pre-order a week ago The Meg 2 Walmart steelbook for the same reasons. Both the steelbooks have the Blu Ray disk but I liked the art more on The Meg 2 Walmart steelbook.

Delivered today. It's gorgeous.

I'm going to watch this soon. Missed it in theatres.

johnnyscience · 11-01-2023, 01:15 AM

After realizing the BB 4k steel was sold out, I lucked out and had 1 Walmart that was relatively close that had a couple copies of these and I was able to get a pretty mint copy in hand.

It looks really nice overall, it's a nice steel.

I'll just buy the 4k slip on black friday or something to upgrade the discs.

TwoTimesPrime · 11-03-2023, 06:46 PM

Sold Out at Best Buy but I was able to snag one of these from a local WM

.
Haven't seen it so I'll watch it this weekend.

johnnyscience · 11-03-2023, 07:47 PM

I know have both steelbooks in hand and they both look great and not sure which one I want to keep lol
