Limited edition steelbooks are often the crown jewels of any physical movie collection. These editions contain the same 4K disc found in a standard 4K UHD release, but are housed in a durable special case showcasing exclusive artwork. They sometimes also include extras like posters or bonus features, which unfortunately some distributors use as justification for inflated pricing.
That’s why it was such a pleasant surprise to find so many limited edition steelbooks included in Amazon’s Buy 2, Get 1 Free promotion. This stands as one of the best offers during October’s Prime Day event, especially since a Prime membership is not required. Simply add three eligible items to your cart, and if a 4K or Blu-ray steelbook is the lowest-priced item, you'll get it for free.
No Prime Membership Required












A personal highlight of Prime Day has been the wealth of discounts on anime. A particularly popular pick among IGN readers is Studio Ghibli's poignant classic, Grave of the Fireflies. Despite being one of the studio's earliest and arguably most heart-wrenching films, it's also the most recent Ghibli work to receive a 4K release. Another anime steelbook in the promotion is Evangelion: 3.0+1.11 Thrice Upon a Time, the concluding chapter of the Rebuild of Evangelion film series. For an emotionally powerful movie night, this would make for an intense double feature.
Laika Studios' Coraline is a perfect choice for the spooky season, featuring beautifully vibrant artwork. The 2021 steelbook release of John Carpenter's They Live has also been a major hit on our IGNDeals social account, thanks in no small part to its standout cover design.
This is IGN, after all, so I have to show some love for the superhero offerings. The deal includes the limited edition steelbook for the first Venom film, which has earned its cult status largely due to Tom Hardy's unforgettable performance. It also feels fitting that Spider-Man: No Way Home is part of the sale—a nod to the wonderfully complex world of Spider-Man licensing.
As with any physical media promotion, my best advice is to browse the selection yourself. The "Buy 2, Get 1 Free" deal encompasses a wide variety of movies, books, and even vinyl records, so the real fun lies in curating a personal collection that reflects your unique tastes.
The main appeal of Prime Day is the exclusive, steep discounts available to Prime subscribers. Many more 4K steelbooks have reached their lowest prices ever, with some titles seeing their first discount since launch. If there’s a particular movie or series you've been wanting to own, I highly recommend searching for it and using a price tracking service like camelcamelcamel to determine if the Prime Day offer is a good buy.
If you need some ideas, here are a few of the most popular releases among IGN's team and readers, including Sonic the Hedgehog 3, a film I likely enjoyed more than was reasonable.
