Toy Story 5 Limited-Edition 4K Steelbook Sells Out Immediately
The 4K Blu-ray releases for Toy Story 5 went up for preorder this morning. Unfortunately for any collectors, however, the previously announced limited edition steelbook has already sold out across retailers.
Toy Story 5's limited-edition 4K steelbook edition sold out immediately upon pre-order opening this morning. The limited edition steelbook has already vanished from retailers, leaving standard Blu-ray and DVD versions available for pre-order with the same release date of September 22. There's a slim chance of a potential restock between now and then, but it's unlikely to appear at up-marked prices on eBay.
The steelbook's popularity stems from its stunning cover art, which showcases the entire Toy Story franchise rather than focusing on the new sequel. The artwork features the main characters, including Woody, Buzz, and the new additions, in a unique watercolor style. A notable piece of the artwork is a depiction of the emotionally devastating tire swing tree from Toy Story 2, which reappears in Toy Story 5.
The steelbook's exclusivity and exceptional design likely contributed to its rapid sell-out. Meanwhile, the standard DVD and Blu-ray editions remain available, featuring the same cover art that mirrors the primary Toy Story 5 poster, showing the toys' reaction to the new villain, LilyPad. The DVD and Blu-ray sets also include the same array of bonus features, such as featurettes, cast interviews, and deleted scenes, as well as a feature commentary featuring co-director Kenna Harris, production designer Bob Pauley, and VFX supervisor Thomas Jordan.
