Seems a very decent price for the Steelbook edition!

Stallone's macho blockbuster receives the treatment it deserves in this 3-disc 'bullet-proof' steelbook edition. Boasting an army of special features, including an exclusive feature-length documentary, this armour-plated collector's edition is the perfect gift for fans of '80s action films.
