Inception BD/DVD Briefcase Gift Set

[halamadrid]

Looks like the briefcase will be available as a U.S. edition sans Steelbook courtesy of WBShop.com. It is available first to Insider members, but I believe that becoming a member is quite easy. WB states that the set will be available for a limited time, and I'm not sure if it will be offered by other retailers. The set looks very similar to other releases in terms of included items. Here's the description from WB:

A WBSHOP.COM EXCLUSIVE! Available in the US only at WBshop.com, this special Inception gift set includes both the Blu-ray disc and DVD of Inception housed in a special metal briefcase. Also included in the briefcase are seven Art Cards, "The Cobol Job Comic,", a replica Spinning Top Totem, and a replica PASIV Device Instruction Manual. Fewer than 2000 are available for purchase in the USA! Details on the exclusive extras:

♦The metal briefcase measures 9 x 6.5 x 2.75 inches.

♦The full-color "The Cobol Job" comic measures 5.75 x 4 inches and is 33 pages long.

♦The 10-page black & white PASIV instruction manual measures 5.75 x 4.5 inches.

"This item ships 2 days after you place your order. " ???

I wonder if it'll really ship in 2 days. That would be hella awesome.

[lrienaeds]

I placed my order and my confirmation says that it will ship by 11/15.

[ts0323]

Aka the release date.... Did you really think WB, the distributor of the film, would break their own street date by a month?

No, but I was hopeful.

[mentaltweak]

SapGoblin - I'm doing the same! Will stuff steelbook in from FYE!

I was considering posting the info here but the email was for WB Insiders only... wanted to keep it a secret for as long as possible... which wasn't that long.

[Trekkie313]

Isn't shipping free anyway since it's over $40?

So does anyone know if it's been confirmed that this is an WBShop Exclusive? Will this be offered by Amazon or other retailers?

I would think that if anybody would break the street date it would be the distributor, the one place that wouldn't be punished by breaking the street date.

According to the email it is "a limited edition and available only at WBshop.com while supplies last."

[ts0323]

I'm assuming you can cancel pre-orders later if you want?
That's really the only thing holding me back.

There's a link laying somewhere on another thread. Search.

I've preordered mine. However, I found something right on this page that might be of interest to some.

I'm definitely ordering this if I can get the damn order to go through.

It keeps giving me credit card failed errors.
