Canadian Dollar

As this is a Disney release, I'm sure it will be region free, after all - the Marvel films have been. And also surprised we don't have the standard lovely blue Disney discs.

Is this sold out already???

Pretty sure it ain't. My guess is that they marked it "sold-out" online so that they can process the online orders.
I should come back online on release day (if there's still some...).

Anyone got their shipping notice?

@Drum18 we can never be sure with these shared print runs..look at MJ P2, stock never went back up online

You're damn right... since Best Buy took over, seems like our shared print run are really.. REALLY low... So now, always preorder online wayyyy before and then adjust the price if needed...

And no, no shipping notice.

Just got them.

Me too. i ordered couple steelbooks just in case it gets damaged during shipment. Wouldn't be surprised if Deadpool will be the same case. It might not be an instant sell out but F4 & Scorch Trials didn't linger for very long.

I have mine coming to me through the mail, but the 3 stores in my area show no stock at all in-store.

Does yours show as having stock? I'm wondering if it's just a delay in updating stock count or if maybe only larger Best Buy's got them.

 

[NazguL66]

Online says no stock in my stores either, but I got it in store and it was selling pretty quick too so I bet soon that will probably be accurate

I was just at a BB (not my store) and they had TONS of this steelbook. Approximately 40 - 50 copies

I was worried cause it shows sold out online and sold out at all stores in my area (and I still haven't got my shipping notice from my online order).
But i went in and just like you @AlienKing, and TONS. 40-50 as well. Was worried for nothing.

 

[gocolts]

Not too many in Ottawa, and about half of what was there had spine slashes...

 

[stevo]

Is this sold out already???

No chance. The BB I went to had them everywhere. This was so mass produced, that I saved myself $6, and just bought the regular movie. I wanted to get multiple copies, but seeing how many that were produced, I concluded that there is no collectibility value to this title. As opposed to the HMV release of the Hate Flate steelbook, where there were only 3-5 copies for each store. I bought 3 copies of the Hate Flate steelbook, leaving just 1 that was damaged. First come first serve I say. But on the bright side, I'm keeping all 3 copies, and not scalping them on Ebay lol.

And for the GB:



Just too bad it doesn't match... oh well... we got title on front & spine!!! WINNER!!!

And with Custom slip by @zesty


Difference between English vs Bilingual:

Can't wait to receive my GB order and watch it again.

Yea I was worried for nothing too. I grabbed a stack and not a single spine slash. Good for them.
This might stay in stock for a while. And if it does you know we're getting a price drop after a month or so...
