Way too expensive, but WELCOME346 works, with the right link. And it also works for O Brother Where Art Thou, if you want to combine them to save shipping.

I have tweeted Zavvi to correct the price
It's not showing the save amount yet so the £22.99 is the RRP price not the selling price
This happens a few times when a pre order goes live they will correct the price soon
 
Zavvi are ignoring questions about the price they not replied yet to anyone who has asked about the price on facebook or twitter :rofl:

Someone posted on twitter the other day a screenshot reply from Zavvi that these include 3D disc but I not seen that actual reply on twitter itself

The Zavvi website don't list the steelbook includes 3D and price has to be a mistake with no save £ amount showing yet
 
Ouch!
That being said this looks like a little beauty with artwork surpassing that of its predecessor from March 2014.

Now, if 3D discs are being phased out, I'd rather the Disney films were exempt for at least another year or so and then replaced with 4K discs which Disney have yet to embrace . . . until Disney embraces 4K then my opinion is that all of their steelbooks should include the 3D discs (where applicable).

As it stands 19.99 should be the absolute maximum price for this (if it's confirmed only 1 disc)

ORIGINAL STEELBOOK of course had 2 discs (3D + 2D) and even though a matte finish had some interesting embossing (i.e. not the lazy embossing of just the title . . . which only just counts IMO):-

This and Cars 2 are now both showing as sold out... That was quick for a couple of overpriced re-releases.
It's been listed as Sold Out since Friday at least possibly before Friday but you can be sure both steelbooks will come back in stock before or after release date
 
There is almost no way those steelbooks are actually sold out. It's only steelbook fanatics and maybe some Disney collectors who would think they're getting a good deal rebuying those movies in a pricey steelbook format, and even collectors here weren't going crazy to buy them. Other people might rebuy them in a reasonably priced boxed set of all three, but not in individual expensive steelbooks.

Patience, and they will return--and probably cheaper. I wonder if they were removed for now to save confusion with the current Disney sale.
 
I don't believe it for one minute that they sold out Cars including 3D took ages to sell out in Zavvi last time and we are supposed to believe that an overpriced 2D version would sell out this quick?
