Aladdin (1992) 4K Steelbook (Best Buy Exclusive)

[coaster]

August 13th with all those Marvel 4Ks and September 10th with all those Pixar 4Ks as well as Aladdin are going to be 2 expensive days. After that we might have to lay low till Black Friday.

Finally able to pre-order. Every other time I was checking it said "Coming Soon" Next two months are killing my wallet ha ha

For those that preorder and ship to home (versus pickup), what's the experience usually? Items arrive a few days prior to street date? Do they ship their stuff in decent condition?

I usually get them on Saturday before or Monday. They rarely are received in mint condition though due to flimsy cardboard envelope.

Saturday delivery for the last few but Monday at the latest for me. Mine have never arrived damaged but there's people here who don't seem to have the best luck with it comes to that.

Like others have said, usually Saturday before but I have gotten some as early as Thursday or as late as a week after.

Condition wise I've only had some minor spine slashes but others havent been so lucky.

This looks like an amazing steelbook. They are doing great work on these unlike all that 4K garbage from Pixar.

where are people finding these on bestbuy? Like i can obviously just click the link in the post and pre order it no problem. But i usually just search "steelbook" on bestbuy and sort by release dates to checkout whats new or coming etc. (sometimes a video game will show up) but lately theres been some steelbooks that don't show up when i search steelbook on there like this aladdin, godzilla king of monsters, and the new spider man.

So i'm just wondering if theres like a specific spot on the bestbuy site you guys are checking instead of doing what i do.

I see it on my search just by typing in steelbook... Sorted by release date and it's the last one on the first page under Santa Clause 3-Movie Collection

Edit: That's the 2019 one

Sometimes BB’s search function is wonky. I’ve tried searching for items that I’ve searched before and they don’t show up. I usually just wait a bit and problem is fixed. Probably some behind the scenes stuff going on at the BB.

[Adubb315]

I pre ordered and got the emails. But it’s not showing up in my orders on the site or in my app.... hmmm

[mysticwaterfall]

Back up for shipping.

[bromains]

felt this deserves a bump since its coming out on tuesday, is easy to forget about, and it doesnt show up on the list if you just search steelbook.

I still can't believe that they put the price tag for these older releases in 4K at 34.99.

[InBruges]

its Disney. believe that.

this has been the trend for Disney 4k steels for years now. Why is it so hard to believe?
And continuing to watch current trends, this will be well stocked, sit on shelves for months and if anything will get a $5 price drop 46 days after release

Disney has long pursued that kind of strategy...they don't cut prices because it would hurt the view of their movies as premium products.

I'll be interested how it plays out...The Little Mermaid one sold out pretty quickly and goes for $70-80 on eBay, but the other recent ones have definitely stuck around for a long time. Other studios have different pricing strategies but Disney seems to be doing pretty well.
