Harry Potter 1-8 (2001-2011) (Hogwarts Collection / Wizard's Collection)

Hmmm. I hope that DH part 2 includes When Harry Left Hogwarts.

I believe it's included as an extended version.

But isn't like 34 of those 37 hours of special features on the discs in the original collection to begin with?

Not on the 50-60 dollar set.

I wish there was a box with all the UEs inside and nothing else, but that doesn't exist.
The price of the Wizard's Collection box is lower than the price of each UE seperately (in the UK that is)

So I take the stuff that comes with it for granted and sell it eventually and keep the movies.

Is there confirmation of that? So far, we only know that the Rowling/Radcliffe conversation has been extended.

[Vashetti]

I honestly can't remember where I read it but I'm sure a longer version is coming out.

The original clocks in at 48 minutes. Very random length for a documentary.

Edit: Found it:

Scroll down for the details in Italian, and then slightly further down for a rough English translation.

48 minutes would translate to 60 minutes on TV, with 12 minutes for commercials.

I would shell out if all the movies were extended versions. Since they aren't, I think I'll wait.
Maybe when more details come out it'll look more interesting. Props and stuff are nice, but would rather have more extras. Just a personal preference. I'm sure it's a cool boxed set.

Vashetti's right, I heard that it was gonna be extended as well. This was when the first DH2 Blu-ray was released, so I'm not confusing it with the extended Dan/JK chat on this new set.

Still, the 'TV-length' version is bloody good as it is; when those kids start to blub as the very very very last day of Potter comes to an end, it's heartbreaking.

Only the Bonus Discs for the last 4 Potter movies will be on BDs. So if you want all the extras,wanted to warn you,because its not just the DVD Copies of the actual movies to worry about.

Thanks for the answer. My concern is about the huge size and heavy weight, but I guess I'll take my chances anyway. About the regions locks, I've got a free region blu-ray player, so it's not a problem.

Once again, you will not pay any custom fees. There is no "taking my chances." It's a fact. At most your bank will charge you a percentage of the total for an international transaction.

BBFC have passed the extended 86-minute version of When Harry Left Hogwarts, listed for inclusion on the UE of Deathly Hallows 2 (and by proxy the Wizards Collection). Cool. Credit to Vashetti for first posting this in the UK HP thread.

not sure if i think it's worth the price. it's mostly paper and discs... other than the horcrux replica, what is there in this other than paper?! amazing artwork and great concept for a box, but there should have been 2 or 3 more replica's. the daily prohpet, the quibbler, anything!!! just not enough im sorry. i don't have any boxset of Harry Potter yet so i'll be getting this one anyway, and then the next one with other exclusives no doubt

Well I have all the ultimate editions and then they never did the last two so they can kiss my but. They didn't allow people to complete their collections and now they want us to buy this ultimate set. They can kiss my butt. I hope this thing fails and goes in a bargain bin.

It's still not worth the price. How many times are buyers going to look at the cloth map? The photobook? The locket? The price is so high that it likely won't sell out any time soon.

I agree completely.
