Surprised to read that many members here are not able to find these at their local target. The store I picked mine up had atleast 25 copies of it and was told that they received 30 in total.

Mine had 4 out before Tuesday and this Morning they had 15 up front and another Ten in the back... BUT!!! the guy that handles the movies probably dropped the box on one side the 15 up front all had a smashed bottom right corner ...

Just got home to a brown corrugated envelope. At least there weren't any Steelbooks in it, just 3 Amarays that are going straight back to the store.

OMG amazing how Target is messing up everyone's online order. Why can't they get it right, it's not that hard? Picked my copy up in store though and they had about 20 or so copies but all in those damn coffins. At least mine was ok!

I had my fiancee stop by a Target on her way home. I called ahead and they told me they had 2 left, so I had them hold me one. She gets there and after 15 minutes, they can't find it.

So they checked the computer, went into the backroom and found a box of them. Unbelievable. I bet the store I went to in the morning had them too. When they feel like it, maybe they will get around to putting them out

Same thing for me...

And my Target doesn't have any left.

Yeah I went into target and they didn't have any out so I asked them if they had any lone survivor blu ray steelbooks in the back and they told me "we only have blu rays and dvds, no books in our shipment."

That's hilarious!

I'm REALLY liking this one! A VERY NICE steel indeed! Sucks for those who couldn't find copies. I have plenty of stores that all had plenty of copies today. If anyone needs help with a copy, give me a shout. I'd be MORE than happy to help out!

Guys, they sent me a slipcover instead of a steelbook. I am SO upset

I had them hold me one. She gets there and after 15 minutes, they can't find it.

So they checked the computer, went into the backroom and found a box of them. Unbelievable.

I've called before many times, to get a steel placed on hold. Sometimes they try to tell you that "they can't place items on hold". But if you ask again, they will nornally help hold it for a while. So, if you can manage to get one on hold, and they don't bang it up too bad, they put it on the counter near the register and walk away. Then someone will walk up and Shnaggy it right off the counter. This happens all the time.

I know because, wen they hold something for me, and I pick it up, it's just laying on the counter and I snatch it up and no one is ever around. Then I go to the shelfs and see wats Gucci. Just in case.

The sad thing is that Target electronics empoyees are clueless. They don't know what the hell a Steelbook is. The be like "No we don't have any" or "Ive never even seen one of those in my life". Best Buy is just as bad. It's a almost battle every time.

ON TOPIC:

I really like this Steelbook. It's very nice in hand, it's a quality mate finish. It's a heavier/thicker. I definatly recommend this to all my ninjas. Pretty nice.

Here's a PIC!

Am I the only one that doesn't like the art? Big quote on the front and the credits take up at least half the back art...

You're not the only one.

I agree. Kind of glad I skipped this one, especially for the price!

Congrats to those who secured a copy though - the Target ones can be hard to come by.

What's wrong with the price? It was $19.99 + Tax for a new release in steelbook form

 

[Jnavotheman]

Surprised no one had any pics of this in hand yet

 

[Troll2Fan]

Got there and got to see the employee open the box. It looks like they had 20+.

Wreck was able to find a few more of these in store, so if there are any international members looking, the group buy has been re-opened.

Price is $19.99 + tax + gb fees & shipping

I brought the slipcover target.com sent me and was able to exchange it at a retail store for the steelbook, and they even credited me $5 for the price drop since my preorder There were about 10 copies in stock.

I thought the same thing, until I opened my copy.....

It's has a really nice matè finish! The quotes doesn't pop out at all, it really kinda of blends in actually. It's a very nice Steelbook, thicker & heavier steel which add a little bit of weight.

And for $19.99! You can't beat that! Some places charge more for the plastic case.

I truly feel sorry for u if u decide to PASS. I'd would go run out right now and buy 2!

The price is RIGHT! Nice little steelie!
