Just don't give in to this Zbox nonsense people. Please.

The lowest print run on a steelbook Zavvi has done so far is 1,000.

So are 1,000 people really going to take the plunge on a box of tack worth €40 just for this mediocre steelbook? I'd really like to hope not.

Anyway I'm thinking the print run will at least be the same as their Avengers lenti. And something tells me we haven't seen the last of that yet. Limited numbers mean nothing with Zavvi.

Just look at 'Filth' for example. It's still available today.....

Don't be scaremongered.
 
If this genuinely was exclusive to the Zbox and was actually a part of it rather than just an add-on to get people to spend more money, then I'd commend them for their efforts. I fully expect the steelbook to be sold separately at some point though... just like the "Zbox exclusive" Dredd badge was.
 
I am delighted it's now been confirmed as definitely iron man steelbook. The person who revealed it the other day clearly has the inside news and the picture is the same as was revealed. I really like the look of the artwork.

As people will see from many of my posts we have had no end of problems with zavvi but here I don't get the level of outrage. If you don't want it, they aren't forcing you to buy it. It's an exclusive product they have that people have asked for, an ironman steelbook and also a zbox with a steelbook included??
 
They ready should have done this without the Zbox
Iron Man would have sold out mega fast on its own now they are expecting hoping customers go for the Zbox Combo
They can now expect this to take a while to sell instead of an instant sell out

It would be different if the Zbox were something that was good but so far I have not seen one zbox that's of any value or have anything decent in them

Will not be ordering zbox regardless of iron man
And if there's no seperate steel then to be honest it's no big deal to me plenty of good iron man steels out there

I'm truly tired of collection iron man 1 steelbooks. Just give us another sweet release for iron man 2 or a much better release of 3 and stop milking the first movie already. Are all these companies trying to create a holy grail such as FS is like they just pump them out none stop after one another. For them to stick it in that box of rubbish for that price as well 10.99 and I will bite.

You can't really blame any retailer for wanting to release an Iron Man steelbook.

It sells, that's the thing. Sure, I don't like the way Zavvi are handling it, but we all knew it was coming. Marvel Cinematic Universe releases are a licence to print money and Disney know it. Bear in mind, the FS and Play versions were down to Paramount whereas all the later ones are Disney, and we all know Disney loves a repackaged title.

People are still asking for better versions of Iron Man 2, The Incredible Hulk and Guardians of the Galaxy so while Iron Man is being milked at the moment, you can rest assured the others will follow. We've had how many for Captain America: The First Avenger, Thor and The Avengers? 2 or 3 real variations (not including J-cards or printed titles).

You don't get the level of outrage? Steel isn't available on its own, simples!

They could have done this with every big release, they could stop releasing steels. They can do to be honest whatever they want.

But really outrage, some people need to get out more. I have been enraged with zavvi when it takes over a week to get them to reply to a message, then more days debate trying to get the return info for yet another damaged steelbook and ages it being returned and then waiting for refund. It's such a frustrating cycle but this? As I said it's up to them and you don't have to buy it and chances are they will release it separately, people need a :chill pill:

P.s. It also amuses me so many people moaning are saying "...I'll leave it I have the play/kimchi/blufans..."
Some people don't have any ;)
