Jurassic World (2015)

[Raye]

Long time lurker, finally decided to join...

Any news or images of the gift set? There are two unboxing videos of it on YouTube for the Thailand edition which comes with the standard release instead of the tin we are getting. I'm just curious if the figures quality are up to par and look as good as they do in the videos. If anything, I'll buy the gift set and the regular edition then try to sell off the tin to break even.

I'm hoping everyone that preorders it gets a shirt. If they are going to advertise it as such they better follow through!

That's exactly how they did it with Pitch Perfect 2, which also had a shirt for in-store preorders; it was packaged separately from the movie when you picked it up. (I preordered JW on the very same receipt.)

A caveat for those who think their in-store preorder is for the 3D edition (tin or otherwise) for $19.99 based on the card's barcode label: Notice Step 6 and the fine print at the bottom of the card back (scanned in this Deals forum thread, plus I have one in hand to make sure they get it right). From that, the constant use of "any JW BD" on the card, plus this week's ad separately mentioning the tin, this is the way I see it happening:

• If you pickup from 10/20 to 10/27, they will reserve a JW tin (unclear if 2D or 3D) and T-shirt for you; you can substitute any other BD version of JW and still get the T-shirt. The preorder will be applied as a $19.99 discount (actually an exchange, if like PP2 & the Furious 7 Steelbook -- also Universal films with early CinemaNow copies for in-store preorders) on whatever version you get; if it's higher than $19.99 you'll probably pay the difference. (We'll find out whenever next week's ad makes it online.)
• After 10/27 thru 11/20, the tin & T-shirt won't be held for you; instead you'll get $19.99 off the standard JW BD (or presumably any other JW BD still in stock).
• After 11/20, no more BD pickups; the $19.99 will be solely for the CinemaNow copy (no refunds).

The JW card does NOT have separate barcodes for each version, unlike the Inside Out card (which is simply a $5 deposit on your choice of 2D or 3D packs with character cards, made at preorder by scanning the right code on the card; no early CinemaNow content for Disney, unlike Universal). Yet it says several times "any JW BD" (referring to the BDs, not CinemaNow which is 2D for everyone), plus specific mentions of a $19.99 discount in the fine print. Only the mentions of the tin (once on card plus this week's ad) & shirt suggest they'll reserve any specific copy for you behind the counter -- and then only thru 10/27.

For online preorders (in-store pickup OR shipping), as far as the BD version I'd go by whatever was listed on the order when you placed it. If it also mentions the T-shirt, you'll get that separately -- either at the store or in the mail.

I'm planning on going into today after work and hopefully place my pre-order. What are the chances that I could be walking out with my free t-shirt? Or will I have to wait until the movie is released on Tuesday? I really don't want to have it shipped because then I would have to pay for shipping which in return its not free. I work so its impossible for to pick up on Tuesday. And by Thursday (day off) I'm sure they will be all gone. Unless my pre-order reserves me a t-shirt Or its a first come first serve basis.. Any thoughts on this?

You'll have to wait until next week for the shirt.

I would suggest preordering it thru BestBuy.com for in store pickup. Then they would have to save a t-shirt for you because it would be part of your order as a separate item.

I agree with others that the in store prepurchase may simply be a $19.99 time limited deposit toward any version of Jurassic World based on the language of the card, rather than a prepurchase of the 3D edition itself.

Therefore, if you are really worried about the t-shirt, preorder on BestBuy.com for in store pickup.

Update: In store pickup thru BestBuy.com may not be available for all editions (especially the 2D Tin), depending on the location. So the in store prepurchase offer may be your only choice for your preferred location :-/

Nice set! Does it look cheap as many fear it would be? Im still 50/50 about this.

No, definitely does not look nor feel cheap! They are of excellent quality with some very fine detail.
The weight is pretty decent too. Wouldn't hold up large text books but will definitely hold up a pile of Blu-rays!.

For the money, it's definitely worth it. My only caveat is the actual Blu-ray set, would have preferred the standard Blu-ray case and not the stupid round tin.

[scallenger]

What are the dimensions of the tin (diameter across, and width)? And does it feel hard and sturdy or flimsy? Thanks!

The diameter is 14.25 cm across, 2.5cm tall and it feels pretty solid. Not easily bendable. Would have to apply a decent amount of force to get the lid to warp in any way. The whole lid is also embossed too which is nice.

[scallenger]

Thank you! A bit bigger than I thought! I was thinking of possibly getting like an old 8mm film reel case to put them in and do some custom design on it, but they may be too big for that. I'll have to see for sure when I get it. Thanks!

That post just made me kind of want to order the statue set. Somebody stop me!

What are the disc covers made out of? Cardboard?

I'm getting the regular 2D blu-ray case edition, but I'm just wondering

[ImAWalkingCorpse]

Yesterday my Best Buy preorder said it was going to be ready to be picked up by the end of the day. Now it says back ordered. Who knows.

Yeah, cardboard sleeves for each disc.

[scallenger]

Ah hell, just do a video showcasing it all, baby!
