What Troll said. On top of that, collectors buy matter what but the regular crowd isn't going to buy a steelbook for a movie they don't like. I get that that are two different genres, but I would wager a bet that there a lot more people that are fans of war movies than sci-fi.

This is a must buy for me! I think it'll go fast too. I also wonder what other exclusives might be offered.

I'm reading lots you are preordering it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but haven't lots of people had issues preordering Target exclusives and receiving the regular standard edition instead of the exclusive steelbook, digibook, etc?

Well knowing BB it'll probably be a bonus disc at most maybe a different slipcover.
WM might get a digibook or neopack.

Best Buy's exclusive is bonus content, but we don't know what that content is yet. It could be an extra disc, or it might be a special pressing of the disc with the bonus content already on there. I'll be happy as long as it isn't digital content.

Yes digital content was terrible. Target Ticket anyone? Oh wait that service will be gone haha.

Exactly, this is why I never got sucked into extra digital content. Gone just like that.

Target seems to have cleaned up their act. The last 3 steelbooks I have ordered from them have arrived safe and sound. I don't even hesitate ordering from them anymore.

wjasoncul · 02-26-2015, 06:21 PM

Steelboon in the thread title

Has that really been there the whole time? I knew the description on Target's site was messed up but I didn't see it in the title until now...

My last 3 orders have arrived damaged and I've sent each one back. I hope they don't blackball me soon but I can't help their crappy shipping materials.

But Yes, at least we aren't getting amarays any more

Thanks for the info! I will likely preorder and save myself an early trip and possibly missing out.

Not sure if you intended to do this yet, but I would wait for a potential price drop before preordering with Target since they won't price adjust. Just to clarify.

Actually they are price adjusting now...

Pre-order this item now, and if the price drops before the release date, you.ll pay the lower price.

But the price has to drop on the website. I don't think they are matching in store prices yet.

Actually, they price adjusted both GoT S4 and Big Hero 6, so maybe they've finally gotten their act together.

Well good to know they are fixing this too!

It made them really uncompetitive.

mrckonertr · 02-26-2015, 06:51 PM

Ok, Im sure this is a stupid question. But here goes. The blue banner isnt going to be on there will it? Im pretty sure that is just part of the J card. But it looks as glossy as the rest of it. I know, I know. Dumb question. But I figured Id be the one to ask it. Because I think it is an appropriate cover for the steelboon. IMHO.

No, it's the cardboard. I haven't seen one with the banner in a while....
