It's more of a case by case basis with me. For example, I absolutely love the Incredible Hulk Universal 100th Steelbook. However, there are others where it doesn't work as well as the symbol, like Hellboy. The DVD Steelbook is far, far better than either Blu-ray Steels.

My biggest pet peeve is actor names. I despise having actor names scrawled on the Steelbook. IMO, it's ruined every Batman Steelbook (sans the animated ones) so far

My biggest pet peeve are the cheaply made Steelbooks (flaking paint, no inside artwork, etc). In general, it seems like foreign releases are superior to US ones.

I've also noticed over the years that Target exclusive Steelbooks tend to be higher quality (though Elysium was a bit of a letdown IMO).

For the most part I have to agree.

I have never imported steel yet, but seeing how they have so many released internationally... It may be the only way for me to get the ones I like.

I show my support by buying domestically whenever new ones release. But I hope more get released. There is only so much I can do domestically!

That was fast. I literally checked last night, and they weren't available for sale. And now it's sold out.

I really like the Brave art, but it's GBP21...

 
A CAG that works at Target took a picture of the Lightning Returns Steelbooks today & both are G1 sized. It's in the CE thread in the deals forum.

Did anyone get Justice League War from Target.com yet? A friend of mine said he got it in the mail today but they shipped him a standard bluray and not the steelbook. The website also no longer mentions the steelbook casing despite still showing a picture of the steelbook. Guess this is going to be an in store only thing now?
 
I didn't order it, cause the last time I ordered a steelbook from Target (Django), they sent it in a poly bag. It was bent, and I had to go to the store to exchange it anyways.

He should of add a note or emaill CSR after placing their pre-order.

Is it really necessary to do that with target.com orders? Did they not have a separate page for the steelbook version? I know for a fact that the listing on the website did say it was the steelbook when he ordered it so that is what should have been received, no? Seems like pretty crappy service.

Last time I ordered a steelbook from Target.com, I ordered enough copies to get free shipping and make sure they shipped it in a box. I just returned the extras in-store.

Steelbooks share the same DPCI # as the regular release, so there's no way to tell when it's ordered unless the description specifically says steelbook. Even then, you might end up with a non-SB copy.

Well it definitely did say steelbook when he ordered. I know this because I'm the one who sent him the link to it lol. I just didn't order one online myself. Sounds like horrible online service if you ask me. A toss up between getting the steelbook and regular release? What's the point of pre-ordering then? Anyway, stopped by my local target and picked up a copy for myself and my friend to replace his standard edition.

It's down to $18.96, according to my camelcamelcamel.com watch on it.

Blame Target for giving them both the same DPCI #. It's been an issue with them for as long as I can remember, so it's probably someone packing the shipment, checking the DPCI # and matching it up.

Target.com CS is pretty bad and hasn't changed in numerous years. Glad you could find a copy locally.

I picked it up yesterday morning. Got there around 9:30am, and they had about 4-5 left, picked 2 up, one for me one for a friend.

 
Yeah, I had the same problem as samusaran226's friend (I'd quote the post but new accounts can't do that...?).  Sad part is that I was paying no attention and didn't notice anything was wrong until I opened the case.  Would have just ordered the standard version through Amazon if I'd have known Target's full of hijinks like this.

Tales of Symphonia HD Collection CE (releases 2-25) comes with a Steelbook among other bonuses. Limited to 15k copies, already sold out.

The number of copies was bumped to 18k, according to the article--not that that helps those who didn't get a preorder in.

It comes out in late June. You have some time to think that through.

Nice idea to put both movies in a single steelbook. Would be great if was the RME version of Anchorman 1 in the 2 pack.

 
I'm sad all the steelbooks disappeared from my Best Buys. The games/movies sections in general seem smaller but I was hoping the steelbooks would be a regular part of the movie section.

On an unrelated note I found a Halo 2 steelbook at a pawn shop. It was $3 but covered in rust. Not sure how you do that.
 
Zavvi has the Alice steelbook back in stock.

I don't recall if they were OOS, but they also have Peter Pan, Dumbo, Lady and the Tramp, and 101 Dalmations in stock.

I ordered Alice and 101 Dalmations, since I missed Alice, and I didn't buy 101 Dalmations on bluray.

If you're referring to the newer line that had titles like Cloverfield, The Ring, Zodiac, etc., they're getting released on Amazon on March 25th. Amazon already has listings for them. Not sure if they'll be back at BB and at other retailers like the last line that was put out.

Speaking of Best Buy and their steelbooks.. that Fast and Furious set was discontinued almost as fast as it showed up. Glad I got the complete set. Tokyo Drift seems to be the rarest. The whole set fetches $125+ on eBay, but Tokyo Drift usually gets anywhere from $30 to $60. Prices seem to be going down though. I love the artwork on them, they're beautiful.
