Not sure. I found it at Hobby Lobby 5 years ago, but they don't seem to have it anymore. Here's an alternate link to it: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Cinema-Sign...EAAOSwilpelh8~

Oh Cinema - being a Brit I scrolled past quick and thought it said TEA.

It does look like 'tea', yeah

Weren’t you the one who complained in the Jaws thread, that UHDs should be cheaper? So why would lowering the price be considered a ‘flop’?

Plus there's, y'know, the whole covid thing so people *might* not want to be spending hundreds of dollars on all the SW films in UHD. They may not have done so at the best of times, fair enough, but we'll never know is the point, so celebrating how much of a "flop" they are during a time like this is myopic in the extreme.

Yeah, I think the "whole covid thing" probably has a lot to do with it. Plus, Disney did (practically) NO publicity for the big box OR the individual releases; they're ALL IN on streaming, now. At this point, with my beloved Skywalker set and the upcoming TOP GUN and JAWS 4K releases, I feel like a prepper hoarding supplies for the coming apocalypse, grabbing last-minute upgrades for all my favorite titles on physical media before the last gasp.

At the moment cheapest and quickest can’t be used in the same sentence as you will be paying a fair bit for them (£25-36 each) and delivery times will vary widely depending on the shipping method used but try checking out eBay seller ‘carmenymario’ who has Episodes 1-7 for £28 each delivered.

I saw "tea" the first time, too. So I had a glass each of unsweetened "iced" tea and lemon/ginseng green.

Let's just say that DMC made it much more bearable. If there's a franchise I am going to drop money on it's going to be Star Wars.

all consumer products 'should' be cheaper...that doesn't mean a thing...do manufacturers always give consumers the cheapest prices?...no...it rarely happens...with SW the prices are always higher then normal and stay that way forever

for Disney to drop prices so quickly shows that sales are a Major (with a capital M) disappointment...and $23.99 is still not low enough to get people to buy this in masse...under $15 each would be a good start...if these movies had reference grade transfers it would be worth more but as is other then SW diehards it's not worth the price

With 30 million Americans currently unemployed (approx 17 million on April 9, just 10 days after the SW films were released) the current economic climate is hardly the ideal time to label the total units sold as a disappointment simply because these are on sale much sooner than past Disney titles.

Especially considering millions of people are needing every dollar they have to their name to sustain themselves with the essentials of every day living. As well as millions of people globally who cannot afford food, gas, or rent, let alone entertainment.

They came out in Denmark yesterday retailing at about £15 each, but not sure about postage.

Aye, he certainly won't be quickest as he's at the mercy of the whole covid thing like everyone else, my first batch that shipped on 21st April have literally only just arrived in the UK (not to me I mean, but just into the country) and the other two he posted on the 22nd and 23rd have literally not moved from LA at all, according to the tracking.

So if people want to get these and get them quick then one of the euro amazons would be the best bet.

Good to hear that stuff is at least moving still from the States.
I'm still waiting on my copy of 1917 from Mario. Tracking says it left LA on 31st March but hasn't been updated since, so hopefully it's at least over here.
Not expecting I-VI from JB Hi-Fi til June to be honest. Anything earlier will be a bonus.

[Geoff D]

Yeah, given that they're talking about this 'bubble' of transport between NZ and Australia only and keeping their borders closed then it wouldn't surprise me if those JB orders never even get here.

I'm getting to the point that I'm ready to just start importing anything that Disney puts out, rather than deal with the stacked discs.

Just don't expect to get them from the UK because Disnee hates us.
