Nice set al, I got the same

I may end up selling or returning something. Completely undecided. The only reason I bought the FYE steelie is that it's the first FYE exclusive made to date for BD. If I didn't get it and it was extremely limited (as it appears to be), I'd kick myself.

Wait, the BB exclusive features a slipbox plus on top of that has the regular combo version house inside? SOLD! Basically two slips in one. Gotta love those

Yes sir. I'm working on the book photos for hardtosayx.

Does anyone want additional photos?

I didn't. I bought the WBshop briefcase and FYE steelbook. The Best Buy slipbox and book was gifted to me.

I try to stay away from the internet when a blu has a slipcover. I am very picky with my slips. So I mostly buy my purchases in store.

Thanks for the info bro. I was surprised you didn't specify it was in your post it was lenticular.

Thank you!


Yes and zero intentions on selling anything. I just hate owning multiple copies of the same movie. I've considering putting the steelie in the Best Buy slipbox with the book, but it will not fit unless I open it. Then I also ponder keeping the slip and selling the sealed 3-disc combo that came with the briefcase and putting the steelie in there, then the slip in the Best Buy box with book as my "extras".

The only reason i said keep it sealed is because you own several versions of the movie But IF you do open it I personally would keep it in the briefcase and maybe display it open to show it off with the steel inside .
Anyways congrads shin I hope to get my UK briefcase next week!

There are a few people I know that ship their slipcovers in immaculate condition, so I have no worries dealing with them at all.

I know I get mint condition stuff most of the time

[shinseiRomeo]

I completely forgot to check for Restrepo last night at Best Buy!

Did anyone get this and confirm the slip for it?

Today's haul from Amazon and Best Buy.

I meant to pick up Mater's Tall Tales with the coupon while I was at Best Buy, but somehow forgot to grab it. I have the Inception SteelBook on its way, but a part of me still wanted to grab the Best Buy exclusive.

So many gorgeous slips you have good taste, tempted to get the one with the goggles from Target myself.

It's such a shame that the Canadian BB Inception exclusive doesn't have a slipcover inside the slipbox unlike the US BB exclusive. Must be those stupid bilingual laws.

God dang it I knew it! haha I had a feeling that Shrek was going to have the holiday packing. Me and blackrider were talking about it and he said that he saw a slot for it at Target. I went to a Target and only saw the DVD sized version of it. Now I'm going to have to hunt the blu sized down. That's the only one I'm missing now unless they continue to do them till Christmas time.

Anyone that can find me one PM please as I don't think my 2 local Target's carry it thank you.

Very nice haul BTW Andria.
