^look at the little white line between the artwork and the blue strip. I'm betting the strip is not a part of the steel.

Well, it's also shrink-wrapped so the discs could already be in there. :P

I've seen this one unboxed on another forum. The Blu-ray + DVD thing isn't part of the Steelbook.

Its a really nice case, and has 1 Blu-ray and 1 DVD in it (same as the US 2 disc combo). The only thing I don't like about it is the case is DVD size instead of Blu-ray size.

Although I already own Tangled, I wouldn't mind getting this Steelbook either. If the price was "decent".

The price for Dumbo off a mexican website was about $23. Shipping was $18, but that's a flat rate for any number of items no matter the cost.

So, buy a couple other things from the same site(forgot the name) and the value goes up.

Who in Mexico going to be able to buy it? They're too busy jumping borders to steal jobs and fighting against bat-crazy drug cartels.

1. There is a Dumbo steelbook?

Yes, just saw it!


2. No chance you'd remember the website?

Mixup.com.mx

Any forum member living in Mexico?

What a horrible thing to say, it's like saying "they're not releasing it in the US cause they're too busy using those drugs Mexico sells to them while they're making up wars to steal other countries oil", not nice huh?

but well, here you can see how it looks inside:

Me. Unfortunately, Mixup or any other online store don't sell this steelbook edition, it is actually a kind of exclusive for a couple of stores: Blockbuster, Liverpool and I think Wallmart. I don't know if they ship outside Mexico though.

The difference here is that you could say that all you want, and no one would take it personally, because it's true. It's just a joke, no need to get offended. Stereotypes are there for a reason.

Still, there's no need to bring that kind of comment into a Tangled DVD thread, it's totally out of place, Many people here in Mexico is buying it, no matter what.

Well, I can take some time off from fighting bat-crazy drug cartels to get it, is there a specific store where you can find it? I've only seen the regular DVD+Blue Ray combo, not the steelbook.

I think it was mixup. Thx, and I actually meant the Dumbo blu-ray in general. :D


And to add to an off-topic discussion, S A was making a joke. Even I recognized that and Im usually the first to fight against stereotyping when I think the other person is being serious.

I'm Canadian(by birth), and there are jokes made about Canada all the time! It's when people mistake the joke for fact is where I draw the line.

I'm not usually a sucker for steelbooks, but I really like the design of this one.

If anyone has an extra they'd like to sell, shoot me a PM, por favor. :)

Like I said, there's a difference between joking and being an IGNORANT MORON! There's no excuse.

Besides, this person didn't say joking... later on it tried to use the joking excuse to get out of the hole it got itself in.
lol
