yes so I was told. like 4k each.

 

[cityguyste]

that is great news keeping it limited. hopefully everyone picks up a copy before it goes OOS

 

[Bobthesub]

I like the fact its gonna be limited to 4000, its a film that many folks want in a steelbook and lets face it most of us are never gonna own the fabled futureshop one for one reason or another so Im sure it would have been very tempting for the studio/play to see an obvious huge market and manufacture this in massive quantities, the fact its still a fairly limited release keeps it 'special', gives those of us on a far more modest budget the opportunity to own an Iron man steel at an affordable price that is still gonna be a sought after item

...cant wait, although August is gonna be an expensive month

DO NOT POST ABOUT THE SPECULATIVE VALUE (DROP OR OTHERWISE) OF THE IRON MAN FUTURE SHOP VERSION. This is NOT THE THREAD FOR THAT DISCUSSION.

 

[Wreck]

Yeah so long as no other Country tries to put out the same thing.

 

[Marina Blue]

I expect other releases on this popular title.

This is the thing...maybe thats the reason for the 4,000 limit for the UK edition

Either way regardless of collectability and any possible value in the future, Im getting a film I like in packaging I like which can only be a good thing

 

[sunnyx]

I think 4,000 is a good round number for a 'limited' edition. Any more it be floating around everywhere and any less will cause many collectors to over buy to force the steelz out of print quicker for their own personal gain.

 

[Wreck]

I think another important factor is that Play wont have to sit on stock.

I am really excited for this. It will be my first UK steelbook import

 

[cooey]

I'm looking forward to having my Avengers collection complete with separate releases of all the movies

Me too. At the moment I only have Thor, but I have the rest of the Avengers steels on order

Well you secured the hardest one to get hold of (of course after IM FS & IM2/CA TW)

This is a great release to be your first UK import. Enjoy!

 

[bigrob]

That'd be a nice gesture of them

These claims of limited productions of 4000 - 5000 copies by the various companies that release them has always intrigued me. I really don't know what to make of them. They claim limited runs, but I see a flood of them on ebay. The worst offender for this is Sucker Punch Comicon edition, which claims a production run of 900 copies. Yet, I always see 8-10 copies at anytime one ebay (go see for yourself), strange. While titles like Terminator salvation (FS) and Inglorious Basterds (FS), which makes no such claims to a "limited" production run, yet you hardly see these titles on ebay. To think that some people paid upwards of nearly $600 for SP Comicon when it first released makes me ill.

SP had more than 900, round the # up and out ...... and then you will know the true #. Now given the fact that many got some damaged ones ... that # subtracted the damage ones and who knows maybe we are back at 900
