| Posted: | | | | As some may know they released 3 different covers for this movie in 3 different SteelBooks, but all have same UPC. I think i know the answer, but is there anyway to submit with the 3 different covers?
And is any of them yet in the database?
Also, if i am not able to submit 3 with same UPC what are my options to get all 3 in there even locally?
Thanks in advance. | | | Last edited: by scottiew |

687797123220 - Sukiyaki Western Django: (Steel Box) (Bloody Cover)
687797123206 - Sukiyaki Western Django: (Steel Box) (Gunslinger Cover)
687797123299 - Sukiyaki Western Django: (Standard Cover)
Each has it's own UPC, so no problem.
Edited. Did not realize at time of original posting that Best Buy's steel books were "exclusives" sharing a single UPC. The above UPCs are for the standard variations of the steel books and probably should not have been used for the BB versions. | | | Registered: February 10, 2002 | | | Last edited: by greyghost |

| Posted: | | | | Did you make sure to list all sources for information submitted? That's often the reason for contributions being declined. |

That's often the reason for contributions being declined. yes. it was all from my personal collection. all info and cover scans i did myself. no explanation,. no nothing, literally within a minute of submission. i don't understand and why i would bother to do the work i did. ok, now 3 say "approved". i don't know what i was doing for it to get declined so quick, but i would like some feedback so i don't keep doing the same things... | | | Last edited: by scottiew |

| Posted: | | | | Do these all have the different second discs I saw at Best Buy yesterday, or is that a Best Buy exclusive thing? I kinda laughed at it as I had a comic collecting flashback. Then I got annoyed looking at them cuz $15 each is way harsher $-wise than comics were. I wanted to check this flick out but know my collector mentality will take over, making it an expensive blind buy. Plus the cover I liked had the bonus disc that sounded worst, while the bonus disc that sounded best was on the cover I liked least. So I walked away. Guess I'll see if I can rent the film. |

| Posted: | | | | Film was terrible. I blind bought the Blu-ray version and hated it. So what do I do today at Best Buy? Buy all three Steelbooks. It's a disease and I think I'm going to return them if I'm ever going to recover. I don't even watch DVDs anymore... | | | My Home Theater |

BB is the only place that has a 2nd disc and they are each different (extras) in each of the SteelBooks. |

| Posted: | | | | The Best Buy "exclusive" Steelbooks seem to have the same upc. This poses a problem in that the bonus discs are different and cover scans are different. I tried to submit a profile only to discover that someone already had a pending submission- same upc- but different cover and bonus disc. In case anyone wants alternative scans, I did some of the case I have (the female gunfighter) | | | Last edited: by Peacefrog |

Sounds good. I guess I'll just keep things local right now and see how this plays out when updates are re-enabled. |
