Doesn't look like this is happening now...at least from this retailer. Link says "OOPS...We cannot find the page you are looking for."

I usually use Zavvi for these releases. They're region-free and only the j-card has the ratings logo. Otherwise, they're identical.

Sunrise has been more miss than hit with these steelbooks in the past few months. Late getting stock. Running out of stock. Price jumps. The cost roughly works out to what we pay here for it anyway. It may be higher/lower due to the coronavirus situation and our $ being so worthless, as it is.

I prefer the Sunrise version because it has the DVD and Digital Copy while the Zavvi version is just the 1 disc.

Where's the Zavvi-lover guy who posts in every thread saying how wonderful and perfect Zavvi releases are?

BTW, back up for pre-order:

I have no idea who the "Zavvi guy" is? I will say that Zavvi is a great alternative to any retailer we have here in Canada, especially Amazon. I have been ordering from Zavvi for years now and I've only had about 2-3 incidents, where I didn't get an order. An e-mail and reply later, a replacement was on its way. No problem.

Amazon have pretty much fallen off the radar at this point. Best Buy lists things late, or stocks things late and in-store is even worse. Wal-Mart, anything other than DVD's, Disney, or Marvel, there's really nothing there. Sunrise is the best bet, but the prices on some import items are much too high and you'll always have a sale from the UK, or the US, to get those same items at a much lower price. Sunrise also has sky-high shipping costs, at least in my area. I found that out a few weeks ago when I wanted to pre-order this title. I'm just outside of Toronto East and my only shipping option was UPS, with the lowest rate being $13 and the highest rate, I think, was $28!?

I really don't care where I get my items from, but if Canadian retailers cannot offer me what I'm looking for, I am always going to look elsewhere.

There was a guy blanket posting everywhere how wonderful and perfect all Zavvi releases were and they were superior in every way to every other release out there.

I like Zavvi too, but it was kinda overboard.

I do import a lot and I have friends in the UK and the US who help. It's an addictive hobby.

I'm always glad to see a Canadian release even though the US releases usually mean digital copy.

Will the digital code redeem in U.S.A?

I'm not seeing an option for shipping to anywhere but Canada...

rickah88 · 03-06-2020, 04:39 PM

Maybe a surprise offering/11th hour at TargetUS?

Can cancel my overseas preorders.

Next week's Target ad shows a US steelbook...

Great, after my $28 copy from Zavvi has already shipped. Really dropping the ball, Target!

Why does Target suck...

Just saw that too...thread created for the US release.

If I remember correct the DC steelbooks used to never be confirmed until the flyer came out. Back when the DPCI was the same as the regular release. It was just assumed.

But you could preorder some of the steelbooks on their website weeks in advance usually, although sometimes the description wouldn't say steelbook, there were usually two bluray editions for sale to indicate one was most likely a steelbook.

Glad there is a SB for this. I will be there Tuesday.
