Pre-orderd the US digibook from Amazon US. Hopefully it comes through undamaged!
Its £18 so much cheaper then UK set and dont need DVD/UV copy.
Before shipping it works out just under £15 so should not get customs fee.
How did you calculate/convert the $23.99? With XE converter it worked out as £15.29 which is over the limit.

Silly question but you do know that the US digibook is not the same as the US or UK gift set which has got the whole artbook (digibook gets half the artbook) and other bits and pieces?

Im hoping the UK 30th anniversary set keeps the same artwork as on the US one. Thats a much more iconic image than the unicorn.

This is exactly what I'm doing if they don't announce a UK digibook. Steelbooks a pos that won't have the extra discs, and the other one will be the crappy model, just give me the digibook at £14.99 and I'll call it a deal.

You need to use the Revenues and Customs rates. Currently anything over $23.43 is liable but it changes month to month.

We don't know that the UK gift set is the same as the US one. This is Warner Brothers, after all, who seem to have contempt for the UK market. No guarantees that the digibook or Spinner replica are included until we see a pack shot.

Suppose so! Going by the price Id have thought it would be the same but maybe Warner will annoy us again...

This isn't a Play.com exclusive though!

If youre used to seeing BR on VHS or DVD you will be astounded by the blu-ray. It really is like watching it again for the first time.

Delighted the complete set is being released on this side of the world, held out too long for the American 5 disc set

Steelbook is tempting, it seems to be part of a series from Warner,
But a few of the other titles being released are a bit iffy so I might skip it as I still have the original release and white steelbooks don't do it for me
Just trying to talk myself out of buying it

Artwork is up: http://www.play.com/DVD/Blu-ray/4-/3...ngDetails.html



It states Blu Ray + DVD Combo Pack. When you zoom in you can see 2 of the discs with the Blu Ray logo I just hope the other 2 aren't DVDs!

Judging by the cover art of the discs I would say we're getting 4 cuts.
