This does look good but the QC issues are a concern. A shame really

Agreed, it looks lovely but the fact there are issues even beneath the J card is owrrying! I'm lucky to have a US ninja pick me up a copy of this ( :oohyeah: ), he said it's mint from what he can see so I've just got to hope for the best for what lurks beneath that card... :ohno:

He is an absolute legend for getting me a copy though! :notworthy:

Just bought this bad boy, making it my first steelbook purchase EVER. Total newbie here. Always wanted to start collecting, trust me...just had to wait until I was better off financially. You know how it is.

Anyway, figured this would be a good time to make my first post. Saw about 6 -8 at my local Walmart. So if you want it, go out and get them!

It looks great. Excited to start collecting and hopefully posting. Cheers!

lol which Walmart?
 
After looking through I found was I thought was a mint steel. There's a paint chip on the top back. I can live with it.


Like most people are reporting, the majority of these are spine splashed. This poor fella even got it twice :ohno:

You've been warned.

I got double spine slash as well I kinda laughed when I seen it was thinking really double spine slash since it's 2 movies. I made the lady grab me a few of them the 1st one looked the best so I kept that. My spine slash is right through the M dead middle of it and then just inside the M on the left side. Mines under the plastic so I know it was Walmart fault. Yours like like it as well.

I actually picked up another copy, I just wanted to share that picture with the community as a heads up. The majority has a slash though in about the same area.
 
I should have got you to send me one of these along with thor dfoles doh

Hehe, I know, right? But these don't need your extra special loving, I assume you want one for yourself though :D

How is it Walmart's fault if it's under the plastic? They don't shrinkwrap them.

Thanks very much. :LOL:

My Walmart Had It For 24.96:thumbs:
 
Finding one in good condition was a challenge at my Wal -Mart as well. Most had spine paint chip issues, but I found a classy one to bring home. My Wal-Mart also had this for $24.96, so it was an easy pick up. I now have a travel copy of Anchorman for almost the same price as the standalone of 2. Not to mention a great looking steelbook.
 
I got a spine slash as well, and this is the only steelbook out of 220+ that I have that has one. But...I don't think I really care. U.S. mass-produced steelbooks always seem to be of subpar quality, and I thought Anchorman 2 was an awful movie. Reminded me of Grownups 2.
 
Mine is in the bag thanks to a good friend in the US! Can't wait to sit down and watch these back-to-back
