Wolverine will be my 2nd MetalPack

Nice. I'm in for Prometheus.

Are they really not going to be sold in stores?

The description says it will be, in limited quantities:

Available for the First Time – Limited edition collectible metalpaks; in store and on-line quantities limited

[fiveseven4combat]

I'm in for all of these. I love the Metalpaks, I wish we had more though.

Goddamnit. Alien is the only movie I don't have in my collection. Wish they would release the other three alien movies to match. The others are going to be double dips. I wonder if rise of the planet of the apes will include movie cash for the sequel?

Thanks a lot! I just broke my screen in following your suggestion to slam my drinking glass against it!

One thing to note is they list Alien as Aliens, so I suppose there's a possibility of it being the sequel, but the artwork is clearly for the first.

Actually, if you click on the pictures for Alien, you get larger versions of pictures for Aliens.

Is that wolverine going to be the extended cut?

Thanks, I'm pretty sure that wasn't there yesterday. I wonder if they'll have both then since they clearly have Alien artwork up too

Looks like there are 10 total:

Alien, Aliens, Prometheus, Robocop, Fight Club, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, X-Men First Class, X2, X-men origins: Wolverine, Wolverine.

Although, as of this posting, Target has the covers reveresed for X-men FC and X-men Origins.

I wonder how many more we'll see. I'm in for all of them!

Oh wow, so they definitely did add more after I posted these. I'll add the others to the op too.

I would like to get some of these but the one thing I hate about metalpaks is that seam on the spine. I hate it because it then makes the title off center on the spine and that kind of drives my OCD bonkers. If they found a way to get rid of this seam in futurepaks I might have another collectible case I will start buying.

I would like to get X-men First Class and possibly X-men 3 to finish off my collection.

I haven't seen any in-hand pics, but I'd be surprised if the spine isn't exactly like the spine of a Metalpak. I believe the Target description calls them Metalpak. I've got them all preordered, so I'll post pics if someone hasn't already done so.

I think I may have to give these another shot because there are a couple titles I wouldn't mind getting.

I would love to get Alien, Aliens and Prometheus but not knowing if they are going to release Aliens 3 or resurrection is throwing a monkey wrench into that plan.

Went to pre-order, selected in-store pickup (thinking I would pick them up on release day, for fear of shipping dents), got an email saying my items were ready. Nice surprise to have them in hand today.

I'm not having that issue.

[kryptonite1970]

Most probably just the X2.
