Thanks urbeenjammin . I went ahead and ordered. Now it's waiting time

My bet is that they are being bombarded with tons of orders and to slow down the craziness, they simply removed the description.
If you search "steelbook" on their site, the listing still comes up with the same sku number from above.

The BB listing now has a small image...

Looks like they have also updated the price as on sale for $27.99 now instead of the original $29.99. Don't recall if BB will match automatically or not so may be worth reordering it or requesting the adjustment as well in case it doesn't stay there for release date when they charge.

Q: Can you ensure the price listed at the time the pre-order is placed will remain the same?
A: Yes and no. When a price is assigned to a pre-ordered item, we are reasonably certain it will remain at that price. However, from time to time — given how far in advance we make items available to our customers — a price change will occur. If this happens, you will always receive the lower of the two prices. For example, if you order an item for $49.99 and the pre-order price is later dropped to $39.99, you will be charged only $39.99. If you ordered the item at $49.99 and the price rises to $59.99, you still pay only $49.99. When you place a pre-order, you are assured our lowest pre-release price

Yup artwork posted is the same as FS. OP and thumbnail updated.

And yet another one for US SteelBook collectors to get psyched about - Disney's re-entry into the SteelBook market. The debossed title, which is a very nice touch, means someone is paying a lot of attention to this release especially since this has the same artwork worldwide.

US collectors need to get out and set a release day sell-out record (much like ZD30) for this title. We will do very well to make sure Captain America 2, Thor 3 etc all get special SteelBook treatment in the years ahead

I don't think it will be more expensive, on the contrary; since in the end we import those STEELBOOKS from other countries we ended paying more because of the shipping, I was thinking on getting Thor 2, hunger games 2 and frozen from the UK but now I won't. So it will be cheaper for me!

Tono, it will definitely be nice to be able to get some additional USA Steels in stores. Been a long time comin...

It's a welcome relief to not shell out $55-$60 to import a steelbook. So freaking excited at the prospect of more US steels and saving some $$$

 

[chronicpoetic]

Just wanted to double (triple) check that this is region free folks? <---typed whilst looking determinedly at the cancel button on Zaavi...

 

[seether254]

29.99 *sigh* well at least they were nice enough to give us 3D.

 

[ash333]

It is $27.99 for an online pre-order now and it would most certainly be cheaper on release week possibly about $3-5 less so we could be looking at a premium SteelBook for under $25. Not bad I'll say, not bad at all.

You my friend, have just hit the nail on the head. I cannot believe this news...I'm super excited. I'm spending less because I don't have to import it from the UK or wherever, and I only have to travel down the street from my house!! I notice more and more steelbooks getting released in the US, I hope this trend continues with that much more releases!
