Best Buy has the best goodies for Iron Man. You get the movie, an Iron Man Bust & a 50 dollar gift card to Sideshow Collectibles.
Nice...but i get my in steelbook...
That site only lists a handful of the BD titles available. As I've said many times in these threads (and as Bradavon has just pointed out), Paramount BDs are all region. Warner and Universal are the same. They were HD DVD backers, after all.

It's bound to be Region Free. All of Paramount's BDs are Region Free.

Play.com have an exclusive steelbook and HMV have an exclusive Iron Man mask (like the Transforming prime box) edition.
I agree with FatDragon and hope that the US Blu Ray is region free. I prefer importing US multi-region Blu Rays - as I don't have to put up with the BBFC rating logos and they arrive in slimmer cases.

"Aside from the single disc edition, South Africa will in fact be getting both 2 disc steelbook and mask editions on the 26th of September"
This is fantastic, for once we here in South Africa aren't getting completely screwed with a DVD release! Getting good versions of DVD's here can be a problem now that Amazon no longer imports to us thanks to out abysmal postal service.
Thanks for pointing this out Psycon, probably would have missed it otherwise. I actually really like the cover art, like the teaser poster with half the mask showing on the right, definitally ordering this one!

It's a let down. The sequel should be good though. It shows lots of potential.

I'll be getting the steelbook edition, but I'm not loving the artwork. Personally I would have much prefered the single or double disc artwork as shown above.
