Asian release of Dumbo on blu-ray??

[RickWJ324]

I know this has a Mexican release that is compatible in the US, but the boxart is not in English. I've seen this listed on Yes Asia's website that is an Asian release, and shows that the boxart is English, as well as the discs being Region A coded. Does anyone know if the menu's on the disc are in English? Here's the link:

If someone could shed some light on this I'd appreciate it. Was looking to buy the Mexican version, but would prefer this one if the menu's are english.

Anyone? I'd really like to get a copy of this asap, but don't want to jump on the Asian release if the menus are not in English. Thanks for any info you guys can provide...

I'll check my Taiwan disc, when i get home. I'm pretty sure the cover art on the taiwan blu is not in English.

Cool.. thanks! The one I posted in the link indicates that its the Hong Kong version. Not sure if that would vary from the Taiwan release or not. They show pics of the cover art (front and back) and it's in english. My biggest concern is that the disc itself is in English with English menus.

I would import the UK edition, but it's region coded B. The mexican disc is in English, but the boxart isn't.

Well the Taiwan disc starts with a language selection screen before advancing to trailers. English is one of the options.

The Taiwan cover has an English title, but all other information is not in english.

Thanks again for the info! I'm hoping the Hong Kong release will have everything I'm looking for.. otherwise I may just end up with the Mexican release. If anyone can confirm info on the Hong Kong edition I'd greatly appreciate it....

I'm still looking for info on this release if anyone can help out?! Muchas Gracias!!

The disc may be the same, but the cover will be different. HK covers usually have all information in both Chinese and English.

[RickWJ324]

So, if this disc is the same as the Taiwanese release, it will be 'language selectable', with English menus as an option, correct? And the disc art and box art will be in English/Chinese, correct? Sounds like I'll go this route over the Mexican release. Thanks for the info guys!

Here is the front of the Hong Kong release:



And the back:



Images are from Boomerang Shop based in Thailand but Disney, Sony, Paramount, and Warner Thai BD releases are the exact same discs as Hong Kong. The Thai distributors just put the necessary censorboard stickers on the outside of the shrinkwrap.
