I know it's going to sound funny, but it looks like a steelbook. I know steelbooks and tins both have corners, but the cover looks like the kind of dry matte you saw on the steelbooks for The Departed, The Clone Wars, etc.

Okay, good to know. Thanks BullGoose.

jjcool

But no official news of this?

OldBoy

xage posting a UPC # seemed clear.

Willo007

All I have to say is "in Xage we trust", I have no doubt, it is a steelbook, and anyone that has been around here for a while should know better. Xage is a very well respected member of this community and as far as I know has NEVER provided inaccurate information. Check all his post and these will be backed up by them.


Xage, you are the man, thank you again for posting the information.

I work at FYE and I can confirm for y'all that the WM25 SteelBook is a SteelBook.

Looks rather nice too.

BullGooseLoony

Drool.

What part of "official" is difficult to figure out?

xage

Let me answer on behalf of Scott.

If I put my belief to official and always wait for official I might end up confused - like you?

Here is a direct example of why "official" is difficult to figure out:


Back February 2009 - WWE (via their WWE Magazine) officially Advertised this:


But Officially - The said merchandise never existed nor was it released in FYE.


Fast Forward a Month after - unofficially, Liontamer made this post


And unofficially - he is right

So, unofficially yet confirmed

Wrestlemania 25 will be sold exclusively as a Steelbook in T.W.E.C. Stores


bottomline:


You shouldnt ask (more than once) about "official" nor tell others the degree of difficulty understanding the word "official", because from your statement below (in reference to your post from very 1st page of this thread) , your belief is confusing:

jjcool

So Scott is unable to answer the question. That's not a surprise. What I do find surprising is that you would take the time to respond, when you couldn't answer the question either.

Regardless of what I may have said in the past, what I was asking for here was some sort of official information, whether it is from the studio or the store. I was pretty sure I made that clear. Perhaps I didnt. You obviously cannot provide that info. It's ok, maybe it just isn't available to you.

As to the Royal Rumble Steelbook, I am well aware of the history of that one. I wasnt aware that I had asked about that dvd. I thought we were talking about the Wrestlemania 25 steelbook. Perhaps I should have made that point clear.

Oh, and I will ask a question as many times as I want, until I can get an answer that addresses said question, thank you very much.

OldBoy

jj,
just go to or call a TWEC store on Tuesday, 5/19, and find out for yourself. why anyone would want to help you in the least, now and in the future, after your posts is beyond me. stop being such a pompous ass and play the hand dealt.

Mod note: scott you've been here long enough to know this type of language/attitude is not welcomed here

WTK

...boy this thread is going nowhere fast. Here is another no-so-clear pic via my phone @ my local store.

OldBoy

i dunno WTK, doesn't look very "official". and the way the sticker separates the words "Steel" and "Book" like that, rather than the proper one word... if only we had a more definitive way of confirming...

jjcool

It's ok. Not everyone knows what "official" means.

OldBoy

very true.

jjcool

Thank you so much for proving my point.

OldBoy

no problem, glad to oblige.

Dragon Ball Z:Fusion reborn/Wrath Of The Dragon was released in a Steelbook Today

ZT_Styles

I got the Fight Club Steelbook a couple of days ago, and I have a question.

It had that damn pesky sticker stuck right along the top, and when I tried taking it off it left a lot of sticky stuff on there. Any reccomendations for cleaning it without ruining it or am I stuck with a Sticky Steelbook?

ScottsdaleSaint

Goo Gone is your friend. A little bit of that on a soft cotton t-shirt, rub gently, minute or two later, spotless steelbook. Available at Wal-Mart and similar type stores, probably hardware stores as well.

ZT_Styles

I have stuff like that around (I think it's called Goof Off or something like that) I just didn't think of using it because I wasn't sure what it would do to the design on the Steelbook.

Thanks for the tip dude!

darkhawk

I was at Best Buy last night and there was a limited edition Steelbook for Hard Rain starring Morgan Freeman and Christian Slater.

OldBoy

a no frills First Look release rears its ugly head yet again.

Willo007

Hard Rain or Hard Cash with Christian Slater also?

darkhawk

From a glance, it looked like Hard Rain.

I could be wrong.
