James Bond: The Ultimate Collection (1962-2012) + Volume Collections - Page 57 - Blu-ray Forum

RBBrittain · 11-12-2015, 03:53 PM

From searching this thread (and Vudu's UV redemption page), it appears each collection (other than Lazenby & Dalton) has a single DC code, correct? I was hoping at least the Craig codes were individual as I already have Skyfall in both UV & iTunes; if they were I'd redeem the Skyfall code at Google Play instead.

Still, with Vudu's "bundle & save" groups (the only way Vudu will duplicate titles in its library -- I discovered that from Instawatch testing), I'll probably redeem them all at Vudu in reverse order, so they will appear in proper order in Vudu's default "purchase time" sort: Redeem Craig, Brosnan, LtK & TLD; then buy NSNA (closest to its actual release between Octopussy & AVTAK -- not UV yet, but if it ever is Vudu will make it so); then redeem Moore 2, Moore 1, OHMSS, Connery 2 & Connery 1.

I redeemed on Flixster so they show up as individual titles in VUDU. I wish there were more flexibility to sorting in VUDU. It drives me bonkers to see collections and sequels scattered. I also try to redeem titles in reverse so they appear chronologically. I may pick up Dalton and Lazenby individual titles on Black Friday just to get UV since actor sets didn't provide them. I'm not too worried about them, I mainly have UV just so my kids can have access to my movie collection. I don't think they have much interest in those Bonds.

The set seems better than Bond 50 overall. The construction for sure as it doesn't seem like it will fall apart after a few months and it won't be as hard to get the discs out. I am really tempted to get it at $150 from Fox Connect - does anyone think it might hit lower than that?

I'm guessing you didn't see the sale last week (I think it was from 11/4 to 11/9), when the "black box" set was $125 for the release of Spectre?

I'm sure the set will drop below $150 at some point next year, possibly the week Spectre is released on DVD/Blu-ray, but my gut is saying that $150 might be the lowest price for the remainder of the year.

My outer box was really crushed in and it was an absolute miracle that the Bond set was Mint perfect. I do wish that instead of the inflated pillows of air that Fox Connect uses they would use styrofoam peanuts in their shipping boxes. I have always had really good luck with shipments with the styrofoam peanuts. I think this time I just got lucky considering the way the outerbox was really bashed in by UPS. It looked like UPS was using my box for a football!!! I am just glad the box set was MINT and also I got in at the price of $125.00!!!

Best, Tom

You're probably not too far off. When I was 20 I worked for UPS, loading the big semi-trucks with packages and they couldn't have cared less how the packages were handled, just that you had them on the truck within a certain time frame. Loaders were always rushing to get them onto the trucks and if they got crushed or otherwise damaged, oh well, as long as the quota and clock were met.

I ordered it from FoxConnect when it was $150. Shipping was really fast. The only thing was the real thin plastic on the inside of each case was in pieces. Each case was broken in some way. I emailed customer service about it weeks ago and never got a response. I'm kind of kicking myself not going through Amazon since I know they'd personally take care of it. I may email them again. Yeah, they're only blu cases that I could replace myself but that's not the point.

"On Her Majesty's Secret Service" is a bit too bright.

Leave a thanks, if you get them to work.

imsounoriginal · 11-17-2015, 02:43 PM

Tried for Connery Vol 1 but doesn't seem to work (or even recognize as a code, maybe it's missing a digit/letter?). Thanks anyway though

Sky_Captain · 11-17-2015, 03:21 PM

Fixed, thanks.

dvdmike · 11-17-2015, 03:30 PM

Thunderball not working, think I missed it

Cards_Fan_15 · 11-18-2015, 12:49 PM

I'm confused and cannot find a definitive answer. Does this version come w/ the Everything or Nothing documentary?

The less expensive James Bond Collection (the "white box") only has 23 discs (1 for each movie from "Dr. No" to "Skyfall").

The more expensive Ultimate James Bond Collection (the "black box") has 24 discs (23 movies + the bonus disc w/ "Everything or Nothing").

Anyone know if the latest re-release or any US release of Casino Royale is uncut?

If not, is there a region free release that is?

Perfect! That's what I needed to know. Thanks! I wanted to make sure because I want the Everything or Nothing documentary.
