It's hardly rare, it hasn't even been released yet.

Plus the same Steelbook design is being released in other countries. Unlike HMV's 'Drive' for example.

How do you know they're rare?

Because he loves the precious

Because he loves the precious

Finally caved in and pre ordered just to be safe, had a chat with the guy on the till and he said they were getting 40 steelbooks in, which sounds like a fair amount but just in case I got one, had the option of a £2 deposit or pay full price (£22.99) upfront. Couldnt get a good look at the steel on the store display as its in the window, not on the shop floor, but from what I could see it looks nice...

I wonder if the print runs are smaller than previous exclusives now all the stock goes to stores rather than some stock for stores and some for the online side of business, not that I buy things based on rarity, Im just curious....

It looks like the claws are painted black and don't have the steel exposed underneath it.

I'll wait till the .it version is released and see if that'll have the bare metal claws or not.

I am waiting for this release. I like the stressed look

This does look nice but it will be no rarer than HMV exclusive of Good Day to Die Hard.

Another popular movie gets a matte finish whilst Scrooged and Elf get gloss finish.

Spoiler

Heres some pics of the standee and the steelbook at my local HMV!

Sorry for the blurry images it was done in a bit of a rush

Sent from my Galaxy S4

Just seen the pics from wyatt03.
Haven't really been following this release, but I'm interested now that its confirmed that 3D isn't included in the title. It looks much nicer than the mock up.

Nope! Good Day was an HMV exclusive, but it wasn't a limited print run. This is!

'Good Day' was available in Germany, Czech etc....just like Wolverine 3D will be available in France, Italy etc...

Trust me, these will be around a while. Only difference will be the J cards.

saw this in person today on display in HMV....very pretty steel

Speaking of HMV exclusives. There is 1 copy of War Horse still at their Kingston upon Thames branch. It's not cheap however.

Good day to die hard had a longer print run-this is a 3-4k run at best and bearing in mind HMV now only has 140 or so stores I would imagine the smaller non-city stores can only expect 40-50 copies max of this-this will all depend on where you live and what grade the store is...sods law that everyone in my family wants this for Xmas...

If this follows the Good Day to Die Hard Route then there is a chance of grab a copy off the bay for under 12 few months down the line.

My local Cex usually has a few copies of the latest steelbook release.
I don't think they can all be pre-owned, they are there on release week.
They had about 6 copies of 'Good Day To Die Hard' and about 10 copies of 'Fast & Furious 6'
I will be checking next week, as my nearest HMV is quite far away and won't be able to get the until the following weekend.
