Supernatural comedy “Goosebumps” is getting a UK Steelbook re-release, with a Zavvi exclusive in August
Jack Black comedy Goosebumps picked up some very positive reviews on its original release.
While the UK has already seen trade-wide steelbook, that release is now going Europe-wide, and Zavvi have grabbed a few copies, with a release set for August 14th.
Pre-orders will be live around 6pm UK time on Saturday July 15th, so ignore the ‘sold out’ button until then.
Pre-order: Zavvi
After moving to a small town, Zach Cooper finds a silver lining when he meets next door neighbour Hannah, the daughter of bestselling Goosebumps series author R.L. Stine. Stine is very mysterious and a prisoner of his own imagination – the monsters that his books made famous are real, and he protects his readers by keeping them locked up in their manuscripts. When the monsters are accidentally unleashed and begin to terrorize the town, it’s up to Stine, Zach and Hannah to get them back in their books where they belong.
So many re-releases lately
Even worse that a lot are re-releases of recent steels
And I don’t get how Zavvi can call this an exclusive when it was released recently across all retailers.
I know. Not a single thing will be different from the trade-wide originals
This goes back to our argument regarding the Mad Max Black & Chrome steels and belittling the significance of collecting steelbooks
With this one I am officially confused.
Why would Zavvi re-release something that hey haven’t sold from the first release (the original issue it’s still available under ”available now” https://www.zavvi.com/blu-ray/goosebumps-steelbook/11245291.html)
Let’s hope they haven’t lost the plot 😉
Aargh why?
This seems to be same as https://www.amazon.co.uk/Goosebumps-Steelbook-Blu-ray-Jack-Black-x/dp/B01BGIXT3O/ I presume exact same cat no and barcode?
