HMV Exclusive Steelbooks - Blu-ray Forum

levcore · 03-11-2014, 08:55 AM

Does anyone have a list of all the HMV Exclusive Steelbooks released to date? They've had some truly fantastic ones over the years and continue to do so. I've managed to pick up a fair few although i certainly don't have them all, nor can recall every one they've released.

In no particular order, I think I have listed them all, they did quite a few! At the time and I may regret this, I was making a protest about the amount of steelbooks being released without 3D discs so missed quite a few :

They also had
Touch of Evil (Masters of Cinema) - many months (over a year I think) later appeared to buy direct from Eureka but on original release was an HMV exclusive

Great list mate. I think Looper was a Zavvi exclusive initially though. I have quite a few of the above. Like yourself though, i opted for the 3D release if the Steelbook didn't have the 3D disc. Was Immortals 3D a HMV exclusive steel?

No Looper was originally an HMV exclusive

HMV did an exclusive amaray of Immortals with artcards but I cant remember whether the 3D steel was exclusive, I am pretty sure it was released elsewhere

Really to Looper? Are you 100% sure? I got mine in the post from Zavvi. This was when HMV website was down and during their troubles. I'm certain it was a Zavvi exclusive to start off with. Maybe someone else can offer their recollections on this one also?

Immortals 3D steelbook was a general release as I got my copy from Amazon. Was sold out prior to release date though. Still have my sealed copy.
I bought the Danish 3D version later to view as in the UK Immortals was cut for a 15 when they could have had an 18 certificate uncut.

Blu MacReady · 03-11-2014, 02:27 PM

Maybe I'm just not seeing what's in front of me? I have The Expendables and 2 both exclusive SBs. But only part 2 was listed. Was number one a play.com or general release steel.

Mavrick · 03-12-2014, 10:50 PM

Loved the old HMV exclusives for the most part, the Disney ones were pretty poor. But Paramount were the kings.

Agreed - of the ones I own (and it's not a huge selection of the list) Thor, Captain America, District 9, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Skyfall, Touch of Evil, True Grit, Drive and Avengers Assemble (even with the picture spine) are among my favourties SBs in my collection.

Dark Knight Rises, Hunger Games, Wolverine 3D and Super 8 are great too, the only two lesser SBs I have from them is War Horse (which is fine, it's just the printed logos and banner) and A Good Day to Die Hard - again, nothing wrong with it per se, just doesn't stand out (but it was £4.99 so I'm happy with it)
