Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga 4K UHD (1977-2019)

Why couldn’t we have got the packaging that the standard bluray set got. FFS Disney.

If the UHD set was in that packaging I'd definitely keep my pre-order.

The UK Amazon page shows some new images and bonus content.

I'm keeping my pre-order, and I'm not one to moan about packaging or covers but I really hate the packaging and the cover.

It doesn’t even look like it’ll have anything on the spine for lining up?? Surely not?

I shan't be keeping it in the Death Star cover, I'll pop that in 'storage' and just stick the silver 'book' on the shelf.

Is that Zoom exclusive?

[Gold Ranger]

The Blu-ray set looks so much better than the 4k set!

[IndyMLVC]

Again I'm not buying this until I see a comprehensive list of the bonus features.

[wildphantom]

On a positive note...HMV and Amazon’s listings for the Blu-ray saga set confirms we’re getting the legacy documentaries on the bonus discs for the prequels.

They should include Empire of Dreams Documentary

The lengths of the discs are a bit more promising. But only 100 min on Episode IV? That's the one most people talk about!

I just placed two orders for 8 individual Nordic Star Wars 4K releases here: https://www.discshop.se/filmer/star_..._for_895/C1635

Costs me 2 x 895 kr aka ~ 173 EUR total (incl. my credit card exchange rate). Which is a good enough price for individual, English friendly (cover) Disney 4K releases for me. It's actually cheaper than the box set for me, gives me "Rogue One" instead of "Last Jedi" (which I already have) and the only missing new "Rise" release I'll be buying (aka have pre-ordered already) in the UK.

I also tried the 5 Star Wars 4Ks for 895 kr option first, but a 5 discs order unfortunately ruins the shipping costs to Germany (499 instead of 99 kr) and therefore the deal (i.e. 2 x 4 discs is the (markedly) cheaper option).

Only downside is PostNord, the shipping company. They're terribly slow

Better keep those DVDs of Empire of Dreams, folks

[mckee74]

Or just watch it on Amazon Prime.

[Darren Pillans]

I love this new trailer.

Looks like even the letter from Mark Hamill isn't exclusive to the UHD Skywalker Saga set as its included in the Blu-ray version of the set and I have to say I much prefer the packaging of that 18 disc set with each Trilogy being housed in their own digi-pack to the 27 disc book type.

Love this packaging - this is the set I’ll be pre-ordering

Yep, so now we have to still keep the 2004 DVD set, the 2006 DVDs, and the BD set.
