I wish Paramount would dump Bay and go a different direction already. Though there is hope with the Bumblebee spin-off coming soon.
These are the types of comments that really confuse me because I thought Extinction was the best Transformers movie since the original.

I really have no idea what to expect from this movie until I watch it myself and that makes for a troubling blind buy.

Picked up a mint copy this morning when the doors opened. Saw between 5-7 of the 4K and about 20-25 of the regular SBs on the shelves. Happy Hunting!!!

I thought Dark of the Moon was excellent and the first one was solid. Age of Extinction was about 45 minutes too long. Haven't seen this one yet but don't have high hopes for it.

Was at my Best Buy 15 minutes after opening and there were no 4K Steelbooks left. An employee told me somebody was waiting as doors opened and bought every last copy.

Is that your hustle really though? Hawking Best Buy exclusives on ebay? Get a job bro

There was at least 30 Blu-ray/DVD Steelbooks so I bought one of those.. funny thing is they are identical to the 4K Steel so someday I'll just buy a cheap/used 4K copy and replace the DVD with the 4K and it will literally be the exact same thing.

That sucks. They need to limit it to 1 or 2 per customer. I would be pretty pissed.

If you're going to go in that early anyways why not preorder it for in store pickup? Pretty much guarantees you get your copy.

I guess I'll have to keep that in mind.. this is the first time I've ever not been able to buy something at this store on release day. This kind of scalper behavior was kinda unprecedented today.

That makes me so mad. We should all just create eBay accounts to bid and not pay so the sellers are forced to constantly re list until their return period is over and they're stuck with them. I really wish best buy would limit the in store purchase amount for the exclusives. I was there at open and my store had only 5 of the 4K steels on the shelf. Tons of the regular blu ray steel though.

Is the site's artwork wrong? It shows the 1080 Steel and the 4K UHD Steel as having different covers.

As long as their pricing is reasonable, I see little reason to be condescending about that enterprise. Many of my customers in other countries appreciate being able to get their hands on exclusives that Best Buy declines to make available outside the U.S. If some guy is buying up every copy in multiple stores, that's another matter.

Just picked mine up, glad I pre-ordered. Tons of BD Steels left on the shelf but no more 4Ks. Didn't see any collection Steels either.

Steelbook is a beauty.

So I placed the order back in the beginning of September for this steelbook. Got one of those coupons for 10 dollars off and at the last minute decided to use it for this movie. So I tried to change it so I can apply the coupon since I had time to do so before it shipped (did it Thursday morning) but it would not let me make changes (grayed out) so I hit cancel order and did the whole reason and confirmed it was cancelled. I placed a new order for the Steelbook and applied the 10 dollar coupon and placed the order. 7 hours later I get two notifications that BOTH orders shipped. Tried calling best buy but they said it was too late to stop the first order and therefore it charged it anyways...even though the system said it was cancelled...argh.

I liked it but they missed out on another sale. I liked the other better and would have bought both.

Plenty of 2D and 4K steelbooks at my local Best Buy (Costa Mesa, CA) when I went around noon. Saw about 12 in the front display then another 15 in the back display for 2D, 4K there was about 4 in the front and 7 in the back.

Even saw 2 Wonder Woman steelbooks in the back display.

The database artwork for the reg blu ray steelbook shows as the old (preferred) artwork. Can anyone fix that? (the 4K steelbook shows as the correct artwork)
