In the shadows...
[DISCLAIMER:] I put this together to help members who are looking for the USA version of the Universal 'Comic' Wave Blu-ray Steelbooks. Let me state that I don't want to mislead anyone with false information, so MODs if need be, please edit this thread as you see fit.

Amazon lists these titles as not being released until June 25, 2013, but some of the titles have appeared for purchase in store on May 7, 2013 at Walmart. See the following image (specifically, the top row of SteelBooks):

Thanks to Danchez @ BD

Therefore, unless I receive confirmation, it should be assumed the remaining titles (Hot Fuzz, Hulk, The Mummy, Paul, Shaun Of The Dead) won't be released until June 25, 2013.

If you go to Bestbuy.com and type in 9099128 in the search bar. Then check store availability. If its available it means they may have it set at your store. Those numbers are the sku for Hot Fuzz. Hope this helps.

My Best Buy had them all out today as well, only 4 or 5 of each. At least now I don't need to rely on Amazon shipping out a steelbook in a yellow envelope just so UPS can destroy it! ;)
 
If someone has the other skis for these, especially pistol and they could share that would be cool.

And we can update the op for all
 
So my store is open and we dont quite have the steels set yet. Our electronics guy was working on the new new releases first. But saw it in the cart to be worked. Ours should be up shortly the latest would be noon since thats when that employee gets off. Will update on break or when im off work with the specific titles my store will have. Will also try and get the dpci's so you can call your store to see if they have a specific title.

So Target has the 5 that i previously stated. Still cant find info on other releases in our system so we probably wont get the other titles in. The Big Lebowski is on the otherside side in the picture. Price is still set at 14.99.

Went to my bestbuy (the one from my previous picture) and found out they put out too many of scarface out and said they had paul in stock but hadnt came across it in there freight they received this week yet. So every store that has these titles should have everyone of these unless its like mine and they misplaced it. Also got a better look at the setup sheet today and can confirm that the takedown date is 7/13 and not 30 what i previously thought. So 7/13/13 takedown date. No word on restocking.

Just came from bestbuy but they only had the universal steels and not the comic book cover steelbooks.I went online and none of the bestbuys close to my house have them.So i will try target and walmart but if they arent there then i will just wait and get it from amazon.
 
Without inside art I just can't bring myself to buy any of these, especially since the German versions had inside art (albeit with backwards spines).

EDIT: Maybe I just can't count.

Best Buy finally showed up

Finally the Best Buy store by my office put up this display today for this wave of steelbooks, like the WB wave, just in time for the upcoming Father's Day and graduation weekends. They could be priced lower at $9.99 as we get closer to Father's Day in the US.
