Got the potter 1-6 set this morning - Blu-ray Forum

Stu123 · 12-05-2009, 05:38 PM

Its a nice box sleeve but was hoping for 6 cases its actually 3 cases with 2 films in each with different covers on the front and back which kinda sucks.

Wow...thanks for the heads-up! You can't post a picture can you? I'm gutted about each film not having it's own case. Have this boxset on order but still have the chance to cancel which I may do now

The years 1-5 boxset has individual cases doesn't it? May order this instead and just order half-blood prince separately, even though this will cost more.

I have the first 5 HP films on dvd but was waiting for this boxset to upgrade them all to Blu-ray.

You say that it's 3 cases with 2 discs in each (totalling 6) but the box picture on Amazon says it's a 7-disc set??

yes theres 3 discs in the last one which makes 7 as you get 2 discs for half blood prince .Its ok i only paid £34.99 for it with a £5 voucher so you cant grumble.Theyre all in dolby true HD which im bit peeved off about as the originals were pcm which i prefer oops im grumbling.Its a nice cardboard cover anyway and saves shelf space.Theres footage of deathly hallows on the second half blood disc i dont know if thats it or theres something else on the 7th of dec on bd-live .Theres already 2 nice featurettes on bd-live at the moment ive just watched one about the effects of the bridge attack which was short but sweet.See you at the community screening on the 12th

Its been updated and is the same trailer as on disc 2 so whats the point in doing that

Well it was too late to cancel my order in the end as it was already in the packing stage, and it came today. Like I said before I would have preferred individual cases but like Stubiedoo says at least this saves on shelf space. I paid £38.48 for it which for 6 Blu-ray films is pretty good value for money so shouldn't moan too much! And now I can see Emma Watson in high definition!

Thanks ... I was willing to order this.

But then I choose the "year 1-5" box with individual cases / film.

That explains why "years 1-6 box" is even cheaper than "years 1-5".

I already got the special edition of year 6 on a beautiful steelbook BR, so i don't need this one
