Don't know if someone else has caught this already, but if the artwork on the page is any indication it looks like Best Buy is getting this in the U.S. as well.

Created a new thread (just in case). We'll wait and see.

Really?

I've got a $5 credit at Best Buy i have to use soon...

 

[bloodsnake007]

Best Buy!? I hope this turns out to be true so I can cancel my UK pre-order!

 

[kbr1656]

Please let this be so so that I can pick out a copy in person.

 

[neveser]

I've already pre-ordered this from Amazon UK. I'll keep the pre-order until I have proof that the US will get this.

 

[howarmat]

I ordered since i had that $5 in reward points that is expiring in 2 days. will see!

 

[dfoles]

Any idea if this might be a 5 disc version like the UK version? Would love to see if that is a jumbo or a new standard G2

We'll probably know in a few days when bainbridge's_stache post the ad early in a few days.

They pulled it off the site.

I hate how the U S doesn't get steels!!! And Best Buy is disappointing me big time.

 

[Familyguy824]

I don't know what's been up with best buy but it seems like they have gotten completely out of the steelbook game. I'm not sure why either, they would almost always sell out of new releases.

They pulled it off the site.

Looks like its still there to me ...

 

[Klownicle]

Pulled, either way I wasn't going to get it. I'll be waiting for the large boxset to match my LOTR standard release.

I think BB is out of the movie game. My local BB drastically reduced it movie section a few weeks ago and its only going to get worse I was told.

Yeah, they get alot of their money basically as a showroom for products. People come in the store to check an item out and then purchase it from online retailers like amazon. Brick and mortar media and entertainment stores have been progressively dying for years.

When I click on the link in IE 11 it goes to the home page. Also, when searching for Hobbit 3D it has the normal, and one extended edition listed.

There's your problem right there. I'm sure if you use a real browser it'll work

I am at work right now and using IE8 and Chrome and both are working fine.
