Both films are good and already have first one from Germany. I would have loved to have got the Zavvi one but £22.99 for one disc and no 3D EEK! Im def sticking with my German pre order...

Come on Zavvi up your game and reduce your prices, its not Disney!!
 
Really nice and clean looking steelbook, looking forward to it! Even though the price is abit steep, and I only have the Alternate Reality amaray of the first one :emb:
 
Considering how most things from zavvi have an original price and then they drop it so like underneath it says 'save £10.00' or something, I expect a price drop. Just their marketing.
 
Tired of these one disc non 3D exclusives that are overpriced. This also proves that the pricing is down to Zavvi and the blame Disney excuse can no longer be used. Hey maybe it will be reduced, if so then I might be interested.
I'll pre-order as do expect a price drop.But if this ends up the final price,its definetly a rip off without 3d.
 
i like the steebook goes with my german DC one, but i feel that this will sellout at full price so going to pre order with view to cancel.

Look at the jungle book one and this will be more popular as it is modern, so don't hold your breath about lower price.
 
I'll pass....like everyone else with a 3d telly, I'll go with the German one...... got the first one from Germany which is one of my favourite steels. Only a small bit extra after postage fees from Amazon.de and you get the 3d disc too.
 
I genuinely though the price would drop further once it went live.
Despicable me simply does not have the prestige of a Disney title to be that expensive without 3D.
 
£23 is just rediculous. I doubt many other than collectors will preorder this as the main target audience is kids regardless of the fact that I enjoyed this movie. My first steelbook and probably many others was bought because I was going to buy the amaray and then upgraded to the steel instead and then I got hooked. Only collectors will buy this and even then some wont like me for example.
 
Pre-ordered just in case it sells out but will keep looking for a 2D & 3D version without foreign txt on the steelbook so I can cancel this.

Hopefully one of the Asian retailers can help us out :movie:

For (despicable) me the minions ARE the stars of the movie :) More minions please!

If you want more Minions you will only have to wait until their movie at the end of next year ;)

well done zavvi, your pure greed has put me off purchasing steelbooks from you - along with your lack of any quality control (most steels now arrive with imperfections, spine slashes, paint chips, etc)

hopefully, they will be left with a huge pile of these and be out of pocket.

have gone for the 3d version from amazon for 18 quid instead. on the plus side you have saved me a few quid as i have cancelled all my pre-orders

no doubt the resident zavvi lovers/staff will be here soon to defend them
 
Zavvi are quoting £16.95 for the 2d normal bluray. Are you seriously telling us that the steelbook justifies a hike of £6. Really? REALLY?

Some of these prices are getting beyond a joke :angry:
