http://video.fnac.com/a2654866/Le-Tr...-Ray?PID=27995
I only managed to find 2 in stores today :/, here are some pics:






Official release date has been pushed back to tomorrow, which might explain the scarcity of the item in stores today.

I think everyone deserves info on the release, so here are the specs, as per on the backcover:

The Transporter

Audio: French 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio / English 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio
Subtitles: French
MPEG-4 Encoding
Aspect Ratio: 2.35:1
Duration: 89 mins
Region B

Transporter 2

Audio: French 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio / English 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio
Subtitles: French
MPEG-4 Encoding
Aspect Ratio: 2.35:1
Duration: 87 mins
Region B

Transporter 3

Audio: French 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio / English 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio
Subtitles: French
MPEG-4 Encoding
Aspect Ratio: 2.35:1
Duration: 103 mins
Region B

---------

It has been reported that there are a few discrepancies on the cover as per what's actually on the discs themselves.

The Transporter
English 5.1 DTS-HD High Resolution instead of Master Audio
Region Free and not locked to Region B

Transporter 2
Region Free and not locked to Region B

Transporter 3
Forced French Subtitles on English audio track

I guess he meant that it is indeed a steelbook

...p.s. I'm glad I saw this before ordering the Australian T3

I ordered a DVD Steelbook and did my usual hybrid thing. It looks like your picture but is, of course, DVD size. But the writing is in English.

Sorry, I should've clarified. I used to own the French Transporter movies (1 & 2), they listed "DTS-HD Master Audio" on the back of the case (as does this steelbook) but in reality were only DTS-HD High Res. I'm wondering if the copies included are new pressings or just the older ones repackaged.

Don't think Kynch will be able to clarify though.. I remember seeing his posts a couple of days ago saying his PS3 is broken and he is waiting to get it fixed? Plus he might have sold the only two copies of this title he managed to find so far?

Has anyone received their copy yet? If so, would they be able to comment on this?

My LG BH200 says it's DTS HD (High Res) on the Transporter (watching this now).

It does not appear to be region locked to B - I'm playing on my region A settings right now.

If anyone is interested on the inside of the case, I can post a picture.

Thanks for the info. I for one would be interested in the inside picture, and if you do check on the region lock for the other 2 discs it'd be great if you couls share that as well. I was planning on keeping mine sealed b/c it was locked, but if the discs play on Region A players I would definitely open it
