But aren't those words linked to this?
BTW, there are overseas sites listing the dual cover steelbook, but I've haven't seen that description mentioned on a US site.

BEware of an supposed Litographs from Best Buy. The Fantastic 4 litho that came in the preorder case was NOT a litho. It was printed on the cheapest stock of paper I;ve ever seen and the print was terrible. 99% of my inserts have better picture and paper. That is the LAST time I preorder anything from Best Buy. Anyone can correct me if Im wrong but that litho was a complete joke. I would have returned it but I wanted their exclusive and it was a good case. The rest went in the trash.
So please learn from my mistake.

Where did any of the US BB steelbook talk come from? No one has ever said any of this.
BB US is getting the 2-disc gift set w/book and toy, FUTURESHOP is getting the two-sided steelbook, FYE is the only US distributer (so far) getting ANY kind of steelbook, and it's one-sided.

If you do reserve it, they have an obligation to hold/get you a copy one way or another so I wouldn't fret too much about it.

I reserved two copies the other day, one for me, and one for my buddy who snagged me a copy of the Death Proof steelbook a week after release on his trip to New York. But with you stating how limited they are, should I get there when they open on release day to make sure I get them? They only had me put down $6.00 total.

My wallet is NOT liking me right now, pre-ordered both Transformers steelbooks, pre-ordered Death Proof steelbook, probably gonna pre-order the Spider-man 3 steelbook, i double dipped with Face/Off this weekend and i want that sweet Troy 3 disc Director's cut that comes out tomorrow. Oh and can't forget Planet Terror if it comes in a steelbook!
Oh and a couple of concerts!(Beastie Boys, Queens of the Stone age, The Bravery, Alexisonfire, The Cure)
Oh well, i love DVDs!

That's Cliff Jumper. ^^ Anyhoo, I'm sticking with the FYE Decepticon steelbook.
Wish the link had more on the comics books. Target was supposed to have a comic and BB was supposed to have a 32 pg book. Maybe I'll see just get some comics from IDW, those Transformer pillowcases and make my own giftset. ^o^

fyi, those best buy toys will be going for $19.99 each. you'll be able to save $5 off of them when you buy the toy(s) along with any version of transformers dvd, bringing them down to $14.99 each.
best buy will also have a lithograph (i'm assuming it'll be the same/similar to the one previously posted) that will come free with the purchase of any version of transformers dvd/hd-dvd.
from the looks of it, there won't be any type of steelbook/tin at best buy. the giftset looks to hold the standard 2-disc version, nothing special about the packaging.
and... that's about it for transformers at best buy.
