Another strike against Target

No 3D or 4K...pass. Anything animated has to at least include either for me to keep in my collection.

Why 3D, I think the animation 3D really has no more depth than the standard.

So online-only means more limited, right?

Got mine yesterday in the mail. Mint condition.

Never more frustrated with a release in my life, Target is normally terrible with steels and I despise when they get them but this might be the single worse release they have ever done. I knew I was going to be out of town on Tuesday so last Friday I tried to order it online to be shipped or just to do a store pick up and it kept saying unavailable so I kept an eye on it all weekend and it never changed. Tuesday rolls around I figure I can run to a target on my lunch in Salt Lake City as I was on a work trip and every single Target in 100 miles says unavailable. So I got back to town this morning decide to check my target and the electronics guy was like we didn't get any.

How the bloody heck do you get this. I am freaking frustrated can't order it online can't pick it up from 25 targets. EFF you TARGET

Weird release, from the ordering phase and if it was or wasn't going to be a steelbook, the random Online only distribution, and the artwork. I like the artwork, just needs a title on the spine. Or atleast character faces. But a gradient?

 

[Ricker]

I hope they have replacements set aside. I received mine with a dent right in the middle

Just wanted to post this scan:

[sirdizzy]

to those of you who ordered and had it shipped, good luck, mine arrived to HORRIBLY damaged and dented. and now target is no longer selling it, i was told target refreshes their stock sundays so will look again sunday night and hopefully just reorder for store pick up. ****, i'm so damn pissed. this is the first time i recieved a steelbook so horrendously dented. i didnt even want to take off the plastic wrap, like i felt all the dents and bubbles on this case. the bottom of the steelbook was protruding, like someone left something very heavy on it during shipment. i'm beyond upset.

Here is the course of action I would take. Return the steelbook to Target for a full refund, buy the steelbook off Amazon.de. If you want to give a little f*** you to Target, use the digital HD code before returning it. The German steelbook is the same - no title on the spine. Nothing gained, nothing lost (ok a little bit more money spent, but you get a mint steelbook in return).

But is the German version all region?

But is the German version all region?

I'd have to do some research, but I have a feeling that it is.

I'd have to do some research, but I have a feeling that it is.

someone who owns it says there is no indication on the j-card whether its region b or all region. also, nothing on the discs mentions what region they are. so unless someone can double verify this, i'll assume its region B.
