The Super Mario Bros. Movie is set to receive a exclusive 4K Blu-ray release with a steelbook case on March 4, 2025. Exclusively available at Walmart and ready for preorder now for $28, The Super Mario Bros. Movie Power-Up Steelbook is likely to sell out quickly. Walmart’s limited-edition steelbook releases of popular films tend to sell out rapidly prior to launch, especially this being the most successful video game adaptation of all time.
In an unexpected turn of events, Walmart has also restocked the original steelbook release. You can get the Power-Up Edition’s Collectible Steelbook version for $28 as well. This edition had been mostly out of stock since before its release last June, but sporadic, brief restocks have appeared at major retailers over the past year.
Now, the question you should ask yourself is: Do you prefer the Power-Up Blocks (the new steelbook) or the Super Mushroom (the original steelbook) more? Or you might be like me and want to acquire both.
Super Mario Bros. Movie Steelbook Editions:
- Original 2023 release with Super Mushroom Steelbook — $28 | Restocked at Walmart, available now
- New 2025 Walmart-exclusive with Power-Up Block Steelbook — $28 | Preorder at Walmart, releases March 4
Walmart’s exclusive Steelbook edition of The Exclusive Mario Bros. Movie is inspired by the iconic Block from the video games (and film). Rather than hitting it with your head to unlock its secrets, you reveal it in a different manner. The inside of the case features stunning artwork illustrating the Mushroom Kingdom’s diverse mushroom types. This steelbook case includes slots for the 4K Blu-ray as well as the 1080p Blu-ray discs of the movie. Like the standard release, you can also obtain a digital copy of the film. The Mario Movie is available on Movies Anywhere, allowing you to add it to your collection and watch it on any of your devices. We find it hard to believe that the Power-Up Edition’s Collectible Steelbook variant will be available for long. However, for the time being, you can enjoy your choice of the two. Considering the price of some steelbook editions, Not too far back, the $28 price for each of these seems quite reasonable. In fact, even if you purchased both, your total of $56 for two copies of the year’s most popular animated film would still amount to less than the steelbook version of Inside Out 2, which is set to be the blockbuster of 2024. This edition features a dark case adorned with a Giant Mushroom on both the front and back. The inside artwork showcases a scenic view of the Mushroom Kingdom leading up to Princess Peach’s Castle. Additionally, it includes 4K Blu-ray, standard Blu-ray, and digital formats of the film. The primary differences between the two editions are the casing and the delivery timing of your order. If you’re considering gifting the film for Christmas, Walmart is currently offering the Power-Up Edition’s Collectible Steelbook. All versions of The Super Mario Bros. Movie come with identical bonus features. You can find the details listed below. The Super Mario Bros. Movie is also available at a low price on 4K Blu-ray without the steelbook case at Amazon and Walmart. The standard Blu-ray and DVD editions are also significantly discounted right now: Super Mario Bros. Movie without steelbook case: Have a news tip or wish to reach out to us directly?
