Spoiler: Should include 3D

It "should" include 3D

i posted this pic i took from inside my hmv store in my town a few posts back, should stick this in the Original post also as it states it is the 3D steelbook and will save confusion.

its more than likely placeholder artwork, im 99% sure it wont be the final artwork.

 

[BradG1984]

I'm sure this will be placeholder art, and the final product will be the same as the French one also announced yesterday. It says HMV exclusive (for UK) not a World Exclusive Artwork...

From their website here:

You can pre-order the X-Men: Days Of Future Past 3D Bluray HMV Exclusive Steelbook from hmv stores across the UK now. Pre-order from store now before they run out...

So it does look like it will have the 3D version also.

Preordered in Oxford. St. store, £21.99 and they confirmed 3D

Who is HMV kidding

Pre-order from store now before they run out...

If the film does $$$ well at the Box Office, it's a 10000+ Steelbook run for the UK

Did they ask for a deposit? I might drop in and say I want 50 for a GB and can't say no on release day

Great. Another mad dash and mucho expense to try and get to an HMV before bloody scalpers clean them out again. I find it easier to get hold of Korean limited editions than HMV exclusives!

One would have hoped that HMV would have some kind of online retail outlet established by now - be it an eBay outlet store, or selling via PLAY.com or another online marketplace. I understand that HMV want to get people in their high street stores by enticing them in with exclusives, but they are also alienating a vast majority of their potential customers who are perhaps unable to visit the stores (be it disabled, working during opening hours, or live too far away from the nearest store after 2013's closures). HMV should really look into broadening their consumer base by selling online again, even if it is via a third party marketplace website!

Even if they were to sell via PLAY.com and add a small percentage to cover the selling fees, they would still hold the exclusive. Entertainment Store sell solely on PLAY.com, and FoxDirect have taken to selling directly via PLAY.com as well. Hell, even Zavvi sell via eBay, Amazon.co.uk, and PLAY.com! Why can't HMV?

and the fact that to get to a store involves a costly mission (parking/petrol or hours on a return train/bus journey )

SaberTooth told y'all back when wolverine was comin out that HMV were withholding their online store on purpose :movie:

….any undercover HMV staff wanna still come in here and tell us its “comin back as soon as possible”

confirmed 3D steelbook, saw this when i went in to preorder

 

[hiphopnrap]

No need to place a £5.00 deposit this time
And they said due Jan but I guess it will be earlier

Sounds as if the stores act differently re deposits etc...I just wish HMV had one general policy for pre-orders...E.g. Guaranteed copy for a fixed £ deposit

Hopefully it'll be 3D like The Wolverine.

Hopefully it'll be 3D like The Wolverine.

It is. Was confirmed on here by myself and a few others.
Was told in store

 

[Lollard2002]

I tired Belfast today. They said they had nothing on their system yet and sometimes they just don't stock them at all. Not much help there........

i had to place a £2 deposit, and they said the current price for it will be £21.99 but it can change, and the date is tbc.

 

[TobJoDaJes]

Just placed a preorder at their Wimbledon branch.
Confirmed it was 3D but chap wasn't sure of the deposit, he was talking to his manager that it should be the full amount!! Thankful he got corrected to £5.

In the Reading store the guy said I could pay the full amount if I wanted, or just the £5 a copy - no surprises what I chose!

 

[glennturner21]

not sure if should pre order this or not. I pre ordered The Wolverine and paid £21.99 for it yet now they still have copies in the 2 for £25 offer

 

[MacLeod]

Looks like I'll have to visit a store then.

 

[lolwut]

I don't get the naysayers, the artwork is awesome. Would you rather have another generic Photoshop job of all the cast together walking towards the camera?

Depends if you want to take the risk of it selling out like Enders Game did.

depends on print run, keep in mind Enders was only 4k....which for HMv is pretty rare
