They really should make more of these things. All of them being sold out before day one means that if they made more, worst case scenario is they sell out in a week.

My local stores said not available for shipping until release day then it changed. I ordered a copy immediately. Soon after it changed back to not being available locally. I got a shipped confirmation this morning. I just don't understand the decisions being made by BBY on steelbooks lately. It annoys me that I had to pay for Scott Pilgrim to be shipped but I could get curbside pick up for Mortal Engines. I just don't get the logic in that.

Just more copies of Mortal Engines that weren't reserved. Your store got copies of both movies most likely but all their copies of Scott Pilgrim were reserved for in-store pickup very early on due to there being low numbers. People weren't as interested in Mortal Engines since it's a less popular movie and already came out in 4k. For example my store had copies of Mortal Engines just sitting on the rack but all their Scott Pilgrim steelbooks were reserved for pickups.

I must have gotten lucky on release day. Wasn't able to pre-order so checked back am PT and it was available for shipping. Shipped and arrival was delayed until tomorrow but hopefully will arrive intact.

I kept refreshing the best buy page yesterday and it looks like some stores received their steelbooks later in the day as the in store pickup option appeared for me around 5:30-6:00pm when I was finally able to place my order. When I put it the steel in my cart it said they had 2 left at the store. I'm in the Bay area in California. Just FYI. Hopefully this info help someone looking to get one.

UK one is back if interested at zavvi

meatball_84 · 07-07-2021, 08:36 PM

Mine arrived today dented and split in half... Calling in to customer service only offered me $10 to keep it. I tweeted Best Buy and they refunded the full charge and let me keep it

sephiroth61787 · 07-09-2021, 07:18 PM

Picked this up the other day and after comparing it to my Zavvi Blu-Ray steelbook, I like that one better. So I'm putting the 4K disc inside it. If anybody is looking for this Steelbook (minus the 4K disc), feel free to reach out.

Geez, I think Best Buy is getting worse with shipping. I got two Howard the Duck steelbook. Both discs came loose. I went to pick up Indiana Jones boxset outside my house today and saw package got torn up. I don't know why but that package is big and no air bag at all.

I still wait for my two copies arriving tomorrow.

Available for shipping at BestBuy.com right now. Just ordered one for shipping.

Came back up for shipping, so I snagged it. Don't have the highest hopes, based on what I've read in this thread, but my fingers are crossed for little to no damage- I usually have good luck with shipping steels. Wasn't, and still am not super crazy about the artwork, but it's one of my favorite movies in glorious 4k, so ultimately, I am weak against it. I remain in total lesbians with this movie.

Hitagi · 07-10-2021, 07:16 PM

I received two copies. It is very ridiculous to see Best Buy continue having USPS delivering it because the mailbox is very hot due to heat in NorCal California (between 96 to 105). The items feels very warm and I have to cool it down. I can't imagine about the condition on discs if it is still there for few hours.

Anyway, I inspected it carefully. I noticed one have dent (can't tell if it is dent because of cover). Second item is not bad.

Got my copy in the mail yesterday and was shocked to see it was in a small little box. I think I've only had one or two other steels shipped in a box, and it was about twice the size of this one. Arrived in pristine condition. Still not entirely sold on the artwork, but I'm happy enough to have it.

MEHEARTJC · 07-16-2021, 09:25 PM

Got mine today in a box and it was heavily damaged. Looks like someone grabbed the end and tried to bend it. You suck Best Buy

Easy fix. Just add a SlipCover

Howard the Duck just showed up...same as Scott Pilgrim with the link to the regular release...

I used to type in SteelBook for my searches, but then it kept sending me to the SteelBook Collector's Hub thing, so I put in [steelbook], and that gets me to where I want to go.

Same here I loved just typing steelbook and sort by release date. But it kept sending me to the collector page. Thank you for the parenthesis idea it works for me 😁
