Most of the Studio Canal releases are region-locked except for a very few.

About $59 USD though? Don’t think I can do it if this thing comes damaged.

Did you use the US or UK site? Today?

I don’t see it on the US site, and the U.K. site is charging me $9.99 (their currency) for shipping.

Arrived today in perfect shape. Took out the B locked discs and replaced them with the soundtrack CD and the American Blu Ray disc. The B discs went to the old black steelbook.

Received my copy today and the steelbook itself looks great. Also happy that it survived the trip in mint condition. Can't wait to watch this over the weekend.

Well i snoozed on the best buy 2 disk set, and amazon jacked up the price to 59.99 once best buy sold out, so it was actually cheaper for me to buy the steelbook from the uk site lol

Did you know that the Blu-ray discs are Region B locked? It's still a great looking steelbook though

I dont care about the blu ray just the 4k movie and book itself. I wasnt going to pay 60 for the regular 2 disk special release on amazon. My only option was the regular 19.99 edition which doesnt have the special features anyway. Ill never watch the movie on blu. The steelbook itself looks awesome. I could always just buy the best buy blu ray steel for a blu ray copy if need be

You seemed to be kind of flip-floppy so I was just making sure...

Definitely the best option if all you care about is the Steelbook and UHD. This steel is miles better (IMO) than the $15 Best Buy one
