Headed to Walmart at midnight to secure myself a copy. They 10 copies when I arrived, before I left there were 7 left. I left the store about ten minutes after 12. Glad I went when I did.

No wonder people would rather buy online than go to a store nowadays. Less hassle.

Welcome to the new normal. It's based on the demographics of the area. As a student I've taken a few advance psychology courses and Walmart is my favorite place to reaffirm a lot of my theories. A microcosm of our current society=Walmart.

Went 5 this morning on my way to work and the display looked like it had not even been touched. Got me a fresh mint copy.

So I finally receive my shipping email at 5am this morning. I don't recall WM shipping being this late. Is every who ordered online showing an arrival date of @ April 9th?
I'll never understand how WM is so successful, I just don't get it.

Mine had this right up front by the express checkouts, which made it super quick to grab one and get out. My store had almost the entire right hand column full, and they almost never get the exclusives.

Stopped on my way to work and snagged a steelbook. Looked like the display hadn't been touched but Blu-Ray isn't a big seller in my area.

I forgot this was coming out today. Big surprise my wife handed it to me after stopping by Wally world from graveyard shift. She knows I'm crazy about steels.

Just wanted to say thanks to the OP and everyone else for alerting me to this. Just picked it up. Thanks for being a great community. This on top of the $1.00 deals on Amazon a few hours ago made for an amazing six hours for Blu-Ray buys.

All 20 or so of these at my closest store had the same defect you described.

Will be heading to Walmart to pick a copy up after work today. I bought the regular edition this morning from Bull Moose ($16.97 with a dog tag), but the steelbook set is too nice to pass up. Oh well, I allow myself a few double dips per year. This will be one of them.

No real concern about them being out of stock. Blu-Ray hasn't exactly caught on around here.

Picked mine up at Walmart 15 minutes ago. My local Walmart store had about 16 in stock. It looks so cool! Glad I woke up early for this. I was a bit surprised to see that it wasn't a G1 SteelBook. A few people had mentioned it in other threads, but it's not a G1 SteelBook. It's a standard size SteelBook. It rang up at $24.96, by the way.

Stopped at one on my way to work at 7. They didn't have that display thing, but they had 5 copies of the steelbook - I grabbed the one without a spine-slash...

Well called my WM. My buddy that works in electronics said they didn't get their shipment in today. They might get it tomorrow. They did get the regular version but not the SB...
