^Like the "Lucy" SteelBook that showed up on BB's website, though it is priced $27.99, unlike this one priced at $14.99, and we're guessing it will be 4K at that price, this could be the old Target steel from a few years ago.

Both from Universal and have Sep 02 release dates. Only these two so far if a larger wave...

My guess is it's just the old Target Blu-ray.

The thread has been updated from just the Straight Outta Compton release, to the following wave of formerly Target exclusives, it is believed, no longer available on their website...

8 Mile

London Has Falling

Lucy (4K)*

Scarface

The Sting

Straight Outta Compton

Ted 2

To Kill A Mockingbird

Unbroken

*Lucy looks to be a 4K release, as it has a $27.99 price, compared to $14.99 for the others. Thread for that one is here...

8 Mile
London Has Fallen
To Kill A Mockingbird
Scarface
Ted 2

Gotta get these!

cynatnite · 08-07-2018, 06:11 PM

I'm aiming for To Kill A Mockingbird. I didn't care that much for Zavvi's steelbook which is why I didn't buy it. Here's hoping this artwork is better.

My guess is that these will be the same SteelBooks that Target had last year. Thread for that wave here...

Minus the Lone Survivor steel, and including the former Ted 2 and Lucy Target steels.

Is it just me, or do none of the links work anymore?

They never did work. Still waiting for them to go live.

London has had a falling out? With whom?

Good catch...will correct shortly

Allgood · 08-15-2018, 06:58 PM

I got Mockingbird and Sting at Target for $10.

Hopefully BB matches that price, maybe I'll pick up 8 Mile

imsounoriginal · 08-28-2018, 01:25 AM

Looks like An American Werewolf in London is also part of this wave. Hopefully new art and with the remastered disc.

[Show spoiler]

newtbludger · 08-28-2018, 02:45 AM

looks like the same old stuff that's been re-released a million times before. kinda wish we would get some new steelbooks like an incredible hulk 4k steelbook or an ET 4k steelbook or a steelbook for the cornetto trilogy

El Rey · 08-28-2018, 03:58 PM

Incredible Hulk steelbook just came out, $14.99, at FYE, no 4K disc but the 4K set is usually on sale $10 - $15 at Best Buy and Fry's.

Edit - ET 4K is $13 on Frys. Get an old Target steelbook, which are pretty affordable, and make your own steelbook. Or just wait and they will probably eventually make a 4K steelbook.

imsounoriginal · 08-28-2018, 04:04 PM

That FYE Steelbook looks awkward with Hulk just punching air lol, should've left Abomination on there. I'll stick with the lenti slipcover and green case (and UHD eventually).

This one is actually being released a month later, and it is a new release, unlike the ones in this wave being re-releases from previous Target releases.

Thread for it is here...

Most of these dropped to $7.99

HanShotFirst · 09-02-2018, 05:19 PM

These four have been updated with artwork now...the old Target releases from last year. Will update OP shortly...

Monterey Jack · 09-02-2018, 05:52 PM

Will probably pick up 8 Mile if I can find it in-store. I have this steel for Scarface that included the art cards and the DVD copy of the 1932 original, and I prefer the artwork:
