Not surprised yet another fugly Disney WWA release.

Imo they do it on purpose knowing it'll sell out away, they'll do a better job with the Zavvi Lenti next year.

You've gotta had it to Disney they really know how **** people over!



Fixed it.

Title should be a little bit bigger, but that's so much better!

Disneyfied.
looks like a steelbook version of a clamshell VHS for one of their animated cartoons

 

[Stygian]

Any specific date to pre-order?

No, never with Best Buy exclusives. The listing will just suddenly appear on Best Buy's site.

4K slipcover artwork. So much nicer than the steel.

 

[JRodDirector]

Geez, well I have to admit that the posters are fun, but the random border detracts from the overall feeling of owning the Steelbook edition. IMO, this is still one of my more preferred steelbooks from the MCU as of late compared to: Shang Chi & Black Widow (Shang Chi was boring and Black Widow was super simple that I had a custom Magnet made for it). Though, the Sony X MCU crossover No Way Home was outstanding and I'm still mystified BBY had it on sale for $29.99 before it even released! The design was fully fleshed out, and the US gloss version was a really nice finish.

@djjez83 - holy ****!*! Yeeess, that slipcover is so much better then the Steelbook artwork.

The Best Buy "No Way Home" steelbook does not have a glossy finish. Not even "spot gloss".

It has a matte finish.

Which mod put 2020 as the release date?

 

[Lenny Nero]

I like the borders.



The regular edition slip looks like those little ponies puked rainbow all over.

I'm still wondering how did Greek space god Thor become a symbol of the 80's and 70's in the MCU...

 

[apsmith21]

The silver frame around it sucks.

Was thinking if they spent some cash on this, a crackle finish where the border is would be amazing

Which mod put 2020 as the release date?

I think that was me.

I read too many articles every day that mention 2020. Hopefully those articles will stop after November 2024.

weet it is then

If I remember correctly, it was previously mentioned that WeET would only release catalog titles for Marvel movies going forward, so I don't think there will be any WeET edition for this film.

 

[RMA]

I haven’t seen the movie, yet. That Steel is an easy pass!

I kind of like it, but it reminds me of 80s He-Man and Masters of the Universe movie!

That’s literally what inspired the teaser posters on the steel. That and Conan etc

That seems likely, given that, AFAIK, they haven’t released anything newer than Endgame. I love that I’ll likely be able to fill in older stuff that I don’t have,but I just don’t think Manta’s Fullslips are nearly as good as Weets and TBH neither are their OC boxes, IMO.

Not quite. They can in theory release up to Eternals, if they want to. But only with blu-ray discs, seeing as no 4Ks were released in korea post endgame. They can't release anything post Eternals as their distributor lost their disney license.
