Canceled my chavvi order. Going for the Walmart edition, seeing how it contains a lot more extras and is confirmed Glossy. Can pick up a 3D disc later down the road.
May even buy the tin box when it up inevitably drops to $25 or less during Black Friday.

Do you really think the tin will drop to sub $30 during black friday?

 

[Blu-devil]

One can certainly hope. As long as I can pick up a 3D disc cheap.

 

[XXHAPPY GILMORE]

The tin comes with 3D, so you won't need to

As much as I like a steelbook I've cancelled this and ordered the normal version with the lenticular slipcase, it's a very reasonable £16 on Amazon compared to £22.75 for a very mediocre looking steel.

Yah UK pricing doesn't seem appropriate for this. Same exact steelbook (even with lenticular cover actually) available from Walmart in USA for $24.96 USD. That would only be about £15.50.

Edit: Walmart's doesn't have the 3D disc. That might be why.

Yeah pricing gone kind of crazy (pacific rim was better) but I've sorta come to expect this price for a 3D steel but I won't pay that kind of money for a lazy release as looking at the others it will be quite a plain looking matte steelbook with no art on the back.

 

[cooey]

I think this will drop in price like Pacific Rim did after release

Why do we have to wait till December before we get this?

does anyone know the hmv pricing for this? seeing as they have been getting a few steelbooks for cheaper than online. I might cancel this as I wasnt thrilled by the movie and I dont need the 3D disc anyways.

HMV are doing this for £17.99 which is a big improvement on the online prices. Just preorded 1 while picking up Wolvie!

Yes, just saw this mentioned this in the Wolverine thread.

That's a great price for a 3D Steelbook. Surely Amazon will have to price match??

The someone else was me

Even at a price match il stick with hmv. Staff were very helpful and would rather get it release day and damage free!

Makes sense - same price as Pacific Rim 3D another Warner release.

 

[SteelReaper]

HMV u finally got the pricing right...now u can compete with the big big boys!!

 

[kaneo911]

Amazon will do a price reduction... look what happened with Pacific Rim

I hope they do. The online prices are too high for my liking, this is a Warner release after all.

 

[lgans316]

I will cancel my pre-order and buy the cheapest one as these won't go OOS any soon.

 

[DillonDFord]

I can't wait to watch this film again in BR!

 

[Flloydo]

Sweet. Amazon cancelled. Going to my local HMV tomorrow to pick up wolverine so will pre order this then.

 

[mascott]

Just cancelled my Amazon order and will pick this up at my local HMV for a cheaper price and risk getting a damaged one in the post.
Thanks for the info
