Universal 'Comic' (Reel Heroes) Wave (Blu-ray SteelBooks) [USA]

[8bitninja]

[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.

Any help would be great

All can be ordered here

printed back's like the german ones or is it clean?

 

[Renero79]

printed.

Picked up the Scott Pilgrim steel yesterday at Walmart. No inner art which is a shame but I am going to design something to put in there today. Almost bought Hellboy 2 and Serenity but don't think Hellboy 2 matches the first Hellboy steel and the comic book motif seemed a bit off for Serenity. May try to get the horizontal UK Serenity steel instead.

the Scarface cover to me looks like a new Grand Theft Auto game.

Man they are trying to make me poor, I mean 37 steelbooks in a short time ughhh (ok 41 since I bought 4 yesterday and that is with me owning half the WB libe already).

 

[Dano]

I picked up Riddick, Pitch Black, Incredible Hulk and Doom. I cannot complain too much about the quality based on the price and I easily found mint copies. I know I will probably pick all of them up at some point.

 

[SirAlfonso]

I'm gonna pick up some if these whilst I'm out here in the states. What's the print run on them?

 

[Dano]

The biggest issue with these is that due to the matte finish the colors are all muted but this ends up having the effect of looking like an old school pulp comic book page.

I bought all 11 that currently available at Walmart. I prefer the US version as compared to the German version for two reasons, the title on the spine is not upside down like the German and most of them come with both blu-ray and dvd so more value for the bucks

 

[Red Dolittle]

I picked up Pitch Black, Riddick,and Van Helsing from Walmart. Needed to get Blu-ray versions as I only had these on HD-DVD.

Nice upgrades and at $12.96 for steelies, a no-brainer...

 

[lgans316]

Wow, sounds like Universal messed up this wave big time by doing printed back and no inside artwork.

Gotta Catch'em All 12.96 is too good of a DEAL to pass Up!!!!!

If anyone cares about the codes included with these I can confirm that they give you the option of a UV copy plus Amazon and Itunes. Even better is that you get an HD copy through all 3 services. I was able to upgrade my old Hellboy 2 SD Itunes copy I got from the original blu ray release years ago.

Really I like that effect, something a bit different. Just wished it had clean back art.

I actually really wanted the Simon Pegg/Nick Frosts and those they decided to hold out until June

Good to know I saw the sticker, though these HD quality DC codes are putting a strain on my hard drive

Picked up Pitch black, Riddick and Van Helsing today, awesome steels!

 

[blu owl]

Do this wave have an inside artwork

 

[Ricker]

Sorry, no inside artwork
