Limited to 300 copys

The steelbook market, right now, kind of reminds me of the comicbook markey back in the early 90's.

I was thinking that to yesterday

Any chance that any of the Chinese releases will include a 3D copy?

It reminds me of when sports cards went to the numbered, limited, autographed jersey card stuff in the late 90s/early 2000s personally. I don't remember anything being very limited about comics in the 90s. Very gimmicky with chromium, foil, and lenticular covers though. Image and Marvel had huge print runs for all of the main titles (and even most of the bad ones too) and most of those books ended up in quarter boxes a year later and are probably still sitting there to this day.

Same worldwide artwork but with Slip and extras...?

Not so much limited, just gluttoning up the market. Once Image paved the way, everybody was getting in on the game. Of course then Marvel/DC had to respond and the market, basically, imploded on itself. Shops were stuck trying to move product and were selling for pennies on the dollar. Pretty soon, the same thing can happen to the steelbook market....although I hope not.

That would be great, cheap SB's then. Then after they become cheap the studios will stop for a few years and then come back and the market died down.

Haha....Studios stop? Maybe they will, but I doubt it.
It's going to be interesting to see folks, with 1000+ BDs, and are steelbook collectors start "converting" all their amarays over to steelbook, or collectible packaging. I know I'm well on my way!

I agree completely and we know how that turned out.

I canceled 9 or so Zavvi orders the other day. Too many overpriced "exclusive" SteelBooks of movies I like, but don't love. Time to curb this shiz.

Any update on shipment if you ordered the 3 OABs together? I know it was delayed due to Robocop..

Dr. Strange wrote in an other thread that they will be shipped at the end if this week. Maybe we will have them soon.

They are all shipped now and I have received all the tracking #. However they are not in Excel file format. I have to make a list and post them later tonight. Don't worry about it. I am on it.

That's fair enough. Thanks for the information. I was interested as I want to eventually become a VIP member, so need to increase my BF titles.

Oh, and that's good news about Rocky.

I think it is supposed to be over for this year, but you need 12 BF and post a pic of them over in the main BF thread.
