I'm still waiting on mine.
It's 3 days late... I e-mailed them, they said wait til the 24th then contact them again...

Here are some photos that I took with my phone. I might can get more clear photos if I take them with my other camera when it's charged. Anyways here are some photos for now. In one of the photos there is a standard Blu-ray movie and a standard Dvd movie right next to the Star Trek box set to give you an idea about the size of the Star Trek box set from the United Kingdom.

If so, what carrier after Royal Mail was used if you went for Standard Shipping?

Here's a nice little unboxing of the complete set.

I wan't to get the films too, but can't decide between the complete set or the 2 seperate box sets.

I do like the slim cases in the seperate sets, and they would sit on my shelf just fine so I think I'm leaning towards getting the seperate box sets.

Get the Seperate sets so that when The Next Generation finally comes out on Blu-Ray you can have them all in order...

Ok, here are the pictures I just took.
The Box is displayed sideways, but when you open the top cover, they are presented in "normal mode."
The Disk Sleeves and the Outer Box are Cardboard.
Outer Box is very sturdy.
Disk sleeves are ok, stronger than the old Warners DVD Cardboard cases...

Thanks for the pics and the extensive way of showing it! I was wondering how "big" it was and you've showed it thanks.

The_Donster · 12-23-2011, 08:04 PM

Can anyone post pics of the American set. I'd like to compare these side by side to the pics KB posted. Haven't jumped on board with these because I was afraid I wouldn't have copies of the original way they were shown. Thought it might be interesting to show to my son when he gets older how old effects looked back in my childhood.

Not really sure there's much to see... imagine the 3 individual US sets sitting on a shelf next to each other. Then imagine them shrink-wrapped together. That's all it is, it's not a complete series boxset in any way. So unless anyone has ordered it and just never removed the shrink wrap there's not really any picture you could be provided with...

It has BOTH the Enhanced Episodes and the Unaltered Episodes

I'll take some menu screenshots soon

Gold Ranger · 12-30-2011, 02:47 AM

Just ran into a problem with my set.
I'm watching them in Production Order and I got to the episode "What are little girls made of?"
and at the 25:00 minute mark it pauses and then jumps forward 6 minutes to the 31:00 minute mark.
I've ejected the disk and there is no scratch or scuff marks.
i've tried "rewinding" it and its still doing it.
For those of you that have encountered this, be it on this set or with other BluRays, how do I go about getting this one disk fixed?
I've already emailed Amazon.co.uk...

Cruel Angel · 12-30-2011, 03:21 AM

When I had a problem with a disc in a complete set, I went through the Amazon return process with no problems. Just had to send the set back (not the individual disc) and they sent me a new set in return.

HeavyHitter · 12-30-2011, 03:24 AM

That UK set looks nice!

Gold Ranger · 12-30-2011, 11:34 AM

AWESOME! they're sending a replacement.
Wonder if i should keep both. It was so cheap, i wouldn't mind if they charged again...
