You can count on that.

Probably when the EE of Five Armies is released...

Exactly. Not hard to figure this stuff out, people.

Ditto.

Does anyone Know if Amazon will be offering a "Amazon Exclusive / Extended Edition with Statue / Blu-ray 3D Edition" of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies 3D ?

I hope they are it would be nice to have Statue set of all three
from amazon/Weta etc.

1. Bilbo/Gollum Statue

I am sure they will. But marketing wise, they first wanna let us buy the theatrical version. And move over in the Summer to push Extended Edition, somewhere in November.

The question that needs to be answered first is if they're gonna pull a double-up stunt like last year, when the theatrical edition of DoS also got an exclusive figurine release: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I originally didn't like that stunt, but the Dwarves of Erebor bookends turned out a lot better than the Barrel Riders statue. So I would be in favor of two statue sets for this movie if it increases the chances of finally getting a Smaug statue.

CeDe.de has listed a Theatrical Steelbook edition of the trilogy (both for 2D and 3D), including Bilbo's Journal. I guess this goodie will be carried over into other regions as well.

yep same here, i did the same with LOTR. i only bought the dvds when they made the extended edition collection. and the same for blu. so i'll wait for those in this case as well.

i'm sure there will also be a 6 movie collection but i already have LOTR on blu so no need to double dip that one.

[StLouisRibs]

Gee whiz, wonder why the 3D version has way worse cover art?

[imsounoriginal]

Love the 2D art but will most likely go with the BB Steelbook unless some store gets exclusive content.

EDIT: Also like how the ACTUAL HOBBIT is finally getting his own cover, on the 3D version of the final movie.

There was indeed a topic, which has been deleted though. So much offtopic and mis info. A reason for the mods to remove it.

November 3 for the Extended Edition.

[HomerThompson]

I hope WB offers a box for the trilogy like New Line did for those who bought the previous two Extended Editions separately and are buying the third. You mailed away for it.

[Show spoiler]

I loved that box. I gave my set to a good friend when the extended BD set was released.

Similar to the Highlander TV series. I bought the set with the box, but for people that bought them individually they could send away for the box.
