G.I. Joe: Retaliation (Blu-ray SteelBook) (Blufans Exclusive OAB) [China]

G.I. Joe: Retaliation Blu-ray SteelBook
Blufans has decided not to include the release in their Blufans Exclusive (BE) line,
so the release is not going to carry the BE #7 sticker. UP is still BE#7.

However, the release is still going to be partially marketed by Blufans, which is similar to Elite Squad MB Blufans. The release is now Limited 500 with a booklet and a full, numbered slip.

Poor choice for a blufans exclusive. They should have picked something that is not released anywhere and will never be released with the same artwork.

 

[Engelskind]

I'll pass on this one. The german and US steelbook with slip is enough for me.

 

[justboy]

Oh, wow! I can't wait for this one, all of a sudden the UK one looks like being not so valuable now

Also makes this one of the least desirable blu fans releases if it's the same design as the rest.

Was toying with idea of building a complete set of the blufans editions. I already have the ES version of this on pre-order. I really have no desire to pick this up from blufans. I'd rather just stick with my ES edition.

I'm grateful though, this release has just helped me make a descision. From now on I'll be happy cherry picking only selected blufans editions. No complete set for me now. Phew as #1 & #2 may have set me back a bit on the bay.

I know. Just squeeze this one in Blufans Disney's line-up. The extra will make the release quite special. Looking forward to it.

Could they squeeze in the man of steel in the blufans lineup. That would be epic!

Agreed and think that would be the first Warner title released by blufans. Right?

 

[TobinFrost]

Blufans will soon transform into Zavvi bis if it continues

Didn't think of that earlier but yes I think it is the first warner title.

Does this mean that "Up" is cancelled/delayed ? Speculating, because, originally wasn't that #7 ?

 

[earthscope]

Crap film and even Blufans can't make this worth buying. Cancelled my ES order of this as I just cant justify spending £26.99 on a piece of dog poo!!!
Really disappointed that Blufans would even consider doing this when there are so many other way more worthy titles they could have done.

I don't see a mad dash to the GB section for this one...

Sorry Kevin, we really appreciate all the hard work you do bringing us Blufans exclusives here at HDN!! Just really surprised at this announcement for a Blufans exclusive.

You're all a wee bit crazy if you think this won't sell out, just like every other blufans release does. Oh wait, it has the same artwork as the rest of the world right? Hmm, Jack Reacher anyone? That didn't struggle to sell and it's the best release even with the same artwork as the rest of the world, or how about this one, Thor? Because we all know how little sought after that is with it's 10,000+ worldwide print run with the same artwork on every single one. Yeah, you guys are right having the same artwork makes them sell outs and this won't do well at all

Stop complaining about releases like this when you are all more than happy to pay £100+ for the same design with a little slip or some cute Japanese writing. This one will be just as popular as Jack Reacher, and when you all see the slip and booklet you will be straight back on to the blufans bandwagon.

 

[CaptainCoffee]

Yeah I think I'll pass on this one and save the money for some of the other BF and HDZ exclusives.

Bizzare choice really.

Jack reacher and Thor are both decent films regardless off them being WWR.. This is not a good film no matter how you dress it up!! Blufans,ES, Etc...

Thor is a great film, Jack Reacher is decent but hardly great.

G.I. Joe Retaliation is a crap film, IMO but does that stop steelbook collector's? I don't think it does judging off some of the prices crap film steelbooks sell for.

 

[Goonboy]

I thought Up was No 7, does that mean Up will be moved to No.8, easy pass for me this one, already have the UK ordered, certainly not going to order this when the cover is exactly the same, getting really bored now with same artwork worldwide for so many releases, cannot justify the extra cash....

Gi Joe is a crap film..
It won't stop a lot of collectors, but for myself I will not buy a crap film just to get a nice looking steelbook no matter how well its dressed up in a pretty package...Even with a big Asian bow,Slip...

I like to cherry pick what I buy and only buy what I like and not just because its a nice looking steel..!!!

Collectors can buy what they want but I will still pass on this, even though its from blufans.

 

[ocielz]

Hell yeah

 

[ESM999]

One more Blufans exclusive My wallet is going to cry!!

 

[bluraysteel]

Thanks for our members voices. Blufans values your inputs and opinions.
The release could be cancelled from Blufans Exclusive line. The final decision will be announced soon.

 

[karl01]

The fact that it is the same artwork means i will leave it hope up doesnt get delayed now.
