Anyone who hasn't seen the sopranos is missing out.

Anyone go on the sopranos tour while in New York?
I went on the New York tour 4 weeks ago. Loved it! Highlight was satin dolls the real bada bing. Where we were treated to a pole dancing beauty to compliment our beer

The bing was quality, pity you only get 20 minutes in it.

Did you get the free onion rings in Holstens.

It does, as seen in the members unboxing video below (which was posted on the previous page of this thread):

I wish they'd used the slim-line cases for this to half the size of that thing... Such a shame it's so big!

Thanks for the pics and vid guys

Just finished season 1 and it looks INCREDIBLE in HD. It looks like it was filmed within the last few years, can't wait to see what the rest of the seasons look like.

No I don't own that release, it was always so expensive. I don't know for a fact but I have heard its a new transfer. To be fair, I'm not a big videophile. To me, if it looks good, it looks good.

If they reworked the last 2 seasons it makes sense to do season 1 as well.



This concerns me a bit did you order yours from Zavvi or Amazon UK? I've only just realised how big the actual boxset is seeing the recent unboxing video it's a lot bigger than the dvd boxset. So I'm guessing it wouldn't be delivered by regular post. How early do couriers tend to come in the morning? If I don't hear them at the door I guess I'm screwed?
I don't order boxsets from Zavvi. I get them from Amazon, although this is the second damaged one I had after two damaged Clint Eastwood ones. You'd think the person packing it would make sure that the item was fully surrounded

I've had deliveries on a Sunday anywhere between 8am and 8pm. At least having got this item today, I was able to order a replacement which should come tomorrow. Hopefully it's packaged better this time

I preferred the box the DVD set came in with the removable lid

All we have to go off is what other members state, the member in the link stated it was the Nordic release. They do look almost identical, both don't appear to be embossed etc, just plain.

[Show spoiler]
Only 35 euros, holy balls.
Did you have store credit or something?

I've been really blessed this year with all these sales. I've got Breaking Bad Complete Series, Friends Complete Series and now Sopranos Complete Series for a total of £80.



All HBO releases come in standard Viva Elite cases here (usually w/ a slip).

Oh, I thought that was the US version. I assumed wrong, my apologies.
