As the new Amazon exclusive Blu-ray box is the only way to get EVERYTHING OR NOTHING, might any of you know which country is offering this at the best price? I am assuming that it is region-free...

Indulged in From Russia With Love, Thunderball and On Her Majesty's Secret Service. They're £7.99 each at HMV. A complete steal considering Zavvi and Amazon had them up for £20/£25!

I'm not certain that it's the lowest price (or that it's region free) but the Amazon.ca version is *quite* a bit cheaper than the Amazon.com version... it just has English and French on all of the artwork.

Oh, Canada...


I just ordered the ".com" version on eBay for $150 (American, $59 cheaper than its current Amazon price) because the seller wasn't including the digital copies... and I know how to rip a Blu-ray if I REALLY want my Bond "on-the-go," so it was MORE than a deal to me.

...unfortunately I was stupid and bought the "non-Ultimate" version first because I didn't take the time to do my research. Thankfully used copies of that release are still going for *just* cheaper than new copies... *whew*

Turns out the HMV exclusives I previously mentioned are just regular Blu Ray cases with a fairly terrible slip case really. Very dissapointing.

 

Also just watched 'The Story so Far' and listening to the writers try and explain Quantum of Solace takes up most of the video. Considering how well rounded their synopsis' are for Casino Royale and Skyfall kinda shows how much Quantum of Solace just plods along.

I'm so dumb, I was hoping they would release the rest of the films in steelbooks but I believe it is just the Blofeld films.

The first three Craig films were released in Steelbooks, too... otherwise it's the Blofeld films and 'For Your Eyes Only'... because we all know (legally) that Blofeld isn't in that movie.

What's the verdict on the steelbooks guys? Worth investing in??

 

OHMSS is really tempting me at the moment - not from Amazon obvs.!!

 

I have the QoS Steelbook from Zavvi. It looks great and it is very tempting to buy the others, just on the packaging alone. It comes with two free documentaries. This is essentially Purvis and Wade talking giving a narrative history of when Spectre was featured and the running story line of the Craig era. Nice to listen to, but not that informative.

 

 

Now I'm realizing that unlike the american (Best Buy) editions that I have, other regional editions of the nine new steelbooks give accesses, through a unique code, to these two new (free) documentaries: The Story So Far and The Shadow of SPECTRE. Please, anyone correct me, if I'm wrong.

Your are correct. The Steelbook I bought had a code for the two docs.

I got the box set, but unfortunately, no codes.  I'd love to get some of the codes for them.
