I was about to ask other people on here. The cover still has the sticker advertising an HD digital copy along with the 4K disc, so I want to contact WB and ask for a code since they kinda owe us it lol.

Does the back of the box still indicate that it comes with a digital copy? (Under "This 8-Disc Collection Includes:")

I got the High Octane collection last year, and it did come with a digital copy for the 4K version of Fury Road.

No, it doesn't mention anything about a digital copy.

The front cover of it has the sticker which specifies it includes a digital HD code and 4K disc of Fury Road.



Anyways, update: Warner Bros Digital Support got back with me last night and said that despite the cover still advertising it's inclusion, they no longer provide digital codes for the product and that "additionally the offer has expired" for the newer copies.



I'm not happy about it but oh well, hard to argue it since the codes are technically supposed to be expired (but they've always still worked for me). I found that a Fury Road + Black&Chrome digital bundle is on sale for way cheaper than the standalone copies on Google Play for anyone that was looking forward to the digital copy like me. Both versions are part of MoviesAnywhere and I tested to be sure that all the other sites provide HD versions of both. https://play.google.com/store/movies...id=sA20qOGzqLY

I also didn’t get a code.

I got mine today and 6 of the 8 discs were floaters. Luckily no issues with scratches because the case design keeps the discs from flying around.

I put all the discs in their spot and closed it. Five minutes later two of the discs had fallen out. How hard is it to design disc trays that actually hold the discs?

Sometimes disc is either in too loose or impossible to get out of the hub.

Cardboard slips like Hitchcock 4k box can cause scratches.

The Japanese do it right but you pay for that quality.

I received my set this morning. Everything is fine; no "floaters", as you kids like to say. It didn't come with a digital code, which I would have been happy to share.

$19.99... absolutely no complaints.

Thanks for the update, that sucks its not the sturdy slipbox anymore.
but thanks for letting me know. 19.99 is still a great price, for those that dont have the movies at all or only in part.
i am going to go ahead and cancel mine and stick with my trilogy steelbook and my 3D and Black and chrome Fury Road releases.
thanks everyone

Hey, I just received mine from the flash sale too, (it also says digital copy included but it's not lol, didn't expect it to though). Question about its entry on the site.. I'm in Australia and assumed that at least Mad Max would be region A locked, and it is (I have an old Toshiba region switching player) but the rest play fine in region B.. I can't see any option to edit the region coding aside from "works" or "doesn't" for the whole set. I would love it to be updated so it's clear only one disc is locked for future buyers.. but I guess it's not possible?

It still comes in a sturdy slipbox (mine did, and I ordered it last week); it's just not made out of chipboard.

Mine feels sturdy enough, not sure if it's changed since initial release but I wouldn't call it thin like a slipcover.

The Australian code that came with 4k fury road only redeemed the standard copy. Digital codes were always a mess here.

Add it to the region coding section of its info, its a tab by the packaging pics. Thats where the truth always is, kind truth seekers like yourselves. Theres a note section where you can say diff discs are what

Is this the only release that has the Madness of Max documentary?

The Anthology set has it too. It's on DVD in both sets.



Looks like it's sold separately on DVD through Warner Archive too

Nice! I was wondering about this because I'll be trying to consolidate my Mad Max collection once the 4K releases for 2 & 3 drop. Glad to know I can still pick this up even if I sell the High-Octane box set.

I opened my set again today and several discs came flying out of the case.

I swapped out all of the flipper trays with some extras that I had from some 4-disc DVD cases. The trays are clear instead of blue, but the discs actually click into the hubs now.

Anyone know if this Collection still comes with a slipcover?

II've only noticed today that the price dropped.

BTW, will the new 4K set come with The Madness of Max doc? If it does, I'll pass this old set.
