Movie Steelbooks at Walmart

Hey everyone.

First, I would like to apologize if this does not fit in here.
Mods please do what you must. (Just let me know

?)

So I was at walmart the other day and for some reason they had this display of a few steelbooks and stickerbooks it seems.

I'm not sure how rare/good these are.
Anyone know anymore about them?

All movies (I checked about half and then I stopped) are in a steelbook/stickerbook in this display.

Games are slowly going that way (or I think we're already there with all the variants

), goodbye money

Yep there are only a select few blu ray steel collectors who play at getting them all as there are so damn many blu ray steels especially if you include variants

And VG steels are starting to get like that too

Very common to release a steel with an AAA title nowadays

Those batman steelbooks are actually a new release. If you look carefully at Batman Begins you'll see it's artwork is different from previously released steelbooks, however there doesn't seem to be much (if any) difference for TDK. I'm getting both (hopefully) in June, so will be able to compare TDK one to my older copy xx

Well they are marked at 12.99, which is ok for some but not all.
I wonder if they are. I remember seeing both Clash & Wrath of the Titans at BB before.

I just check the website and damn I would never have imagined walmart selling steelbooks in a millions years... my friend are drooling right now lol. and since this is walmart, I could foresee that the price would be around 5 bucks on sale days

The only thing I want is Saving Private Ryan, good thing I waited for that, was about to pay 30 bucks for one
