Yeah, the Czech steelbook artwork is my personal favorite. I'll wait to see the Wal-Mart art revealed, but I am very interested in importing the Czech steelbook at this point.

They won't be released until May 21st. I have used the Czech website http://www.filmarena.cz/ with great success. Their steelbook packaging is outstanding.

are the Czech discs region locked? how expensive is shipping to the US (generally)?

lastly, is there anything else you can offer about your experiences? i would love to pick up some items there.

thank you in advance for your time.

Every disc is different as to whether or not they are region locked. I have a region free player, so it's never something that I look into very much. The shipping I would call about average for something being shipped from Eastern Europe. Someone already posted the prices for it for including shipping, right about $45. Shipping took about two weeks for me, and my steelbooks were wrapped in multiple layers of bubble wrap with lots of tape. It took me some time to untangle them, but I don't mind that one bit knowing I am getting an undamaged steelbook.

The only complaint I have about this site is that they don't have an English friendly version of it. You have to use Google Translate unless you speak Czech.

I hope this helps, if you have any other questions please feel free to shoot them my way.

Not sure if I want to spend that much for just the steelbook since I already own the movie, but man is it nice!

it helps a great deal, thank you! even if i do not jump on this, it is nice to have a little more knowledge and another option. everything sounds great....but maybe the cost AND the possibility that i can't play it. i really should make the region free move already, but i am looking at purchasing some new headphones and laptop at the moment and i do not even need the excuse to find more movies i want....

that said, there are several titles i may be interested in. does the shipping get "better" or "worse" with more titles? that 47 ronin is calling my name...

As another question, is there any way to get an english version of the site other than Google Translate?

Not that I know of. Are you using a Google chrome? If not install it and use that since it translates entires pages for you.
