I will wait for the extended steelbook to go with the first two form BB and Target.

F13BluRay · 12-12-2014, 06:19 PM

Agreed.

This cover is really nice though

keyjey · 12-12-2014, 06:25 PM

Will pick this up and EE when it eventually comes 😊

rickah88 · 12-12-2014, 06:44 PM

Even though I hate Walmart, it would be cool if they got the extended steelbook for this film. Shared trilogy run.

I like the artwork so far but why release this exclusively for HMV, the others were a shared release in the UK, I really do not like HMV getting this, they have had some issues with their last steelbooks.

I suspect (read hope!) that this will be like the Transformers 4 and 300: Rise of an Empire where there are both shared releases and exclusives.

Nice, the artwork is awesome!

It seemed that Warners moved its steelbooks over to HMV in the past few months - they used to be general releases but recent releases such as Godzilla and Edge of Tomorrow have been HMV only. I think 300 was an anomoly but, for the sake of those without a HMV nearby, I hope that there's a second release of this as well.

The artwork can't beat that one though...

Its early yet, everyone will have this art no doubt.

Gonna hafta to get me that to complete my theatrical LOTR/Hobbit steelbook line up. Love the art anyway. Damned shame it's not available to buy online though, maybe my mangled leg will have healed by then so I can get out to my nearest HMV (which isn't actually 'near' at all).

Kirsty_Mc · 01-31-2015, 12:47 PM

Pre-ordered In store. No release date as yet so the guy said and no firm price. £5.00 deposit.

Sifox211 · 02-17-2015, 05:06 PM

Mileage must vary - my local store wouldn't take any pre-orders last week because it's not in their system yet. But with March fast approaching it can't be long!

BigNickUK · 04-10-2015, 07:37 AM

This is now available from Xtravision (HMV Online)

Sifox211 · 04-13-2015, 04:37 PM

Finally managed to put down my fiver in store for a copy! This'll be a first for me in fifteen years of DVD/BD collecting, picking up a reserved title in store on release day

Only other time I've picked up a title on release date was for the BD of Spirited Away, again from HMV. Typically, this was the only time that the store price ended up being higher than the online price (not by much though). It was nice to be able to watch this on release day!

So, just received an email from xtra-vision. My copy of BOTFA has been despatched! What 7 days early!?
