The Muppets (Best Buy Exclusive Metal Box) - Blu-ray Forum

Saw this at Best Buy today for $7.50 pre-order. It is the same as lion king Cars 2.

I think I posted this in the wrong section or it was moved.

My Best Buy didn't have any out yet

What's the start date on the back of the case? I'm assuming it's 2/26 and your store just had them out early.

Will be checking after work today.

I think that may be the case, i.e. it was put out early at the OP's location. I hope it's mentioned somewhere in next week's flyer.

Really didn't check the back of the case. I will check my car when I go back outside. Got so excited about the case I ran in the house to post for everyone.

I feel like a nerd now.

Sweet! I love when they offer these. The movie pretty much pays for itself since I don't care to keep the metal cases.

SwaggerJagger · 02-21-2012, 10:33 PM

What's the deal with it? Can I just buy the metal case? I preordered it from Amazon awhile ago. And if I can't just buy the case, can I just preorder it and then just return it and keep the metal case? Thanks.

It just requires a $7.50 deposit and you get the metal case. You don't actually have to go and pick up the movie from them if you don't want to.

Cool! Is it just a metal case and I just slip the regular Blu-Ray case inside? I've never owned or seen one before.

It stores the discs themselves. Here's an example of a similar case for Tron Legacy: https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=188478

Okay took a few more pictures. I love it!

That is nice. I also like the fact that you can pre-order and version of the movie you want. I think it was Lion King that said you had to have a specific version.

Is it instore only??

HDMe · 02-22-2012, 04:11 AM

T-1000 · 02-22-2012, 07:58 AM

Very weird. I wonder why they have been holding them back.
