I really dig the artwork they went with. Just wish the movies didn't suck.

I'm answering my own question... Just redeemed through VUDU and it does give you the UHD version.

Only saw 1, 4K steel, but I haven't made the jump yet so luckily there were an immense amount of BD steels at my location. Probably rivaled the amount of regular editions in numbers, something rarely seen nowadays.

Just watched this for the first time, and as you can tell by my user name, I'm a huge Transformers fan but wow, this movie was super super disappointing. It did top it self in being the worst of the series, I thought Extinction was it, but boy was I wrong.

I wish Paramount would dump Bay and go a different direction already. Though there is hope with the Bumblebee spin-off coming soon.

Try watching it in 3D if you can. Makes it a whole lot better.

These are the types of comments that really confuse me because I thought Extinction was the best Transformers movie since the original.

I really have no idea what to expect from this movie until I watch it myself and that makes for a troubling blind buy.

I thought Dark of the Moon was excellent and the first one was solid. Age of Extinction was about 45 minutes too long. Haven't seen this one yet but don't have high hopes for it.

Picked up a mint copy this morning when the doors opened. Saw between 5-7 of the 4K and about 20-25 of the regular SBs on the shelves. Happy Hunting!!!

Was at my Best Buy 15 minutes after opening and there were no 4K Steelbooks left. An employee told me somebody was waiting as doors opened and bought every last copy.

Is that your hustle really though? Hawking Best Buy exclusives on ebay? Get a job bro

There was at least 30 Blu-ray/DVD Steelbooks so I bought one of those.. funny thing is they are identical to the 4K Steel so someday I'll just buy a cheap/used 4K copy and replace the DVD with the 4K and it will literally be the exact same thing.

That sucks. They need to limit it to 1 or 2 per customer. I would be pretty pissed.

If you're going to go in that early anyways why not preorder it for in store pickup? Pretty much guarantees you get your copy.

I guess I'll have to keep that in mind.. this is the first time I've ever not been able to buy something at this store on release day. This kind of scalper behavior was kinda unprecedented today.

That makes me so mad. We should all just create eBay accounts to bid and not pay so the sellers are forced to constantly re list until their return period is over and they're stuck with them. I really wish best buy would limit the in store purchase amount for the exclusives. I was there at open and my store had only 5 of the 4K steels on the shelf. Tons of the regular blu ray steel though.

Is the site's artwork wrong? It shows the 1080 Steel and the 4K UHD Steel as having different covers.

As long as their pricing is reasonable, I see little reason to be condescending about that enterprise. Many of my customers in other countries appreciate being able to get their hands on exclusives that Best Buy declines to make available outside the U.S. If some guy is buying up every copy in multiple stores, that's another matter.
