Bookends? Finally! Warners have been denying us the fancier editions for the past couple of releases, so glad it looks like they've changed their minds (though let's not forget that there was a 'Bilbo's Trunk' edition planned of AUJ:EE in the UK that never showed up)

Hopefully it's the Guards of Erabor bookends set that a few countries got with the theatrical version. They looked fantastic.

Can't wait for the disc itself as well. I imagine most of the changes will be in the first half (more Beorn, more Mirkwood, more Thranduil) which will be nice as I'd like to linger in those places and with those characters a little longer. Though the timelines does seem to skip a day between Laketown and the Lonely Mountain in the theatrical edition so hopefully that will be filled in.

I also hope not. I want Weta to continue to do giftsets for The Hobbit SEEs, like always. The Guards were by Noble Collection and while looking solid, the Argonath they're _not_.

I'm hoping for the normal extended 3D version, like the one they released for An Unexpected Journey.

There will of course be a standard edition.

Can't see the listing for the standard 3D version of the extended film... I assume they'll list it eventually.

I expect this one will drop down to £15-20 and become the standard 3D Extended Edition...

Interesting choice of packaging colour.

I was sure it was going to be something like this...



Akin to the deluxe edition soundtrack.
