Identical discs. Go for whatever's cheaper, which packaging you prefer, or how much shelf space you have to spare.

Yup.

I think it may be cheaper to get all 9 films separately due to the 2 for £30 deal going on at the moment.

Does Rise Of Skywalker have the old blu ray cover underneath or new matching slipcover one?

Ok so I tried to order episodes 1-6 4K slips (New trilogy didn’t happen) from amazon uk and you can’t get the 2 for £30 deal on all six, it only works for the first two I added to my basket?

I’ve just moved to Cyprus and obviously want to combine shipping, even spoke to someone on the website and she said that’s just the way it is. The promotion only works for 2 at a time and I would need to make seperate orders to get all six.

What’s the next best option? Zavvi? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also how the Fin do you find Rogue One, that’s the only other one I want.

HMV have been fine for me so far.

https://store.hmv.com/search?searchtext=star+wars+4k

A lot of them showing out of stock currently, but they are restocking them regularly.

When I placed my order last Thursday, all of them were out of stock. I got 2,3,4,5,6,7,9 & Rogue One today, 8 & Solo are in the post - just waiting for them to restock on 1. Amazon got a fresh batch in today so hoping HMV isn't too far behind.

Just note that, as others have said, Solo & 9 are the old amaray cases with the new slip covers.

Sorry, didn't realise they didn't do international orders.

cheecheung · 09-04-2020, 12:29 AM

The standard Blu-rays in the 3D edition of Rise of Skywalker, Solo A Star Wars Movie and Rogue One are they the same discs as in the Saga collection/4K editions?

Happenstance · 09-04-2020, 07:42 AM

Bit annoyed to hear someone on Hotdeals say that they complained to Zoom about the slipcover issue and Zoom are now just sending out replacement slip covers instead of getting people to send back their 4ks for an exchange like they did with me

I didn't know they were doing this, I've just e-mailed them and asked if they'll send me out the slipcovers. I wouldn't usually bother if they're sending them out to others then it's worth a try.

My "Original" Trilogy turned up earlier, still in box, but it's got the

label on it.

Received the old style slip cover for TRoS. Rogue One & Force Awakens didn't have slips at all....all the rest were fine, though.

Have dropped HMV an email to see what they can do.

TonyDA · 09-05-2020, 06:26 PM

Big ask, but if anyone either has a new style 'Rise of Skywalker' slip they're willing to sell or lives near an HMV and is willing to buy me a copy and post it to me (I'll cover postage), would you PM me please?

I'm on my third copy - one from Zoom, two from HMV - all advertised with the new slip, all received with the old slip. It's the only one I don't have the new style slip for.

Went to my local HMV (Brighton) on Thursday. Helpful staff member first checked and they only had the old style slip, which apparently has the same barcode as the new one, but then responded with 'I don't know why people are bothered by the slip. It's the same disc after all.'

Sigh. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

I was in HMV today and the new slip versions had the same art as the slips underneath.

I think they all do with The Rise of Skywalker, it might take a quarter or two before they think about printing new wraps.

[Show spoiler]

At the risk of sounding dumb...

"Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope UK Blu-ray Lucasfilm Ltd." The new Disney releases?

So does Solo. I bet they end up releasing the new covers in a few months but without the slipcovers!
