Where can I find Batman Begins Collector's Edition?

The only one I can find ANYWHERE was a Region 4 on ebay, and that was the only one on ebay. Anyone have any ideas?

where are you located? There have been reports that alot of Circut City stores across the nation have a few. I know when I visted GA over the holidays I saw alot.

If your in the LA area Ameboa music has about 15-20 copies of the limited edition.

Just wondering why you didn't pick this one up when it first came out?

Some reports states that there are still few of the Batman Lenticular DE sold at Bestbuy. But its not in the DVD section, try checking out in the Home Theater section of Bestbuy, there were stands and racks there that may or may not carry the Lenticular version.

Try Best Buy and Costco (if you have membership). Otherwise, try the MSRP places like Borders, Suncoast, etc.

I called the local circuit city and best buy, all they have is the 2 disc deluxe, not the collector's edition. when it first came out, the fye store i worked in only got 2 copies of the CE, and 2 other employees snagged them before I could. We never got it in again, and none of the stores in my area had it in stock. I hadn't realized at the time it would be so difficult to get. The only other specialty DVD stores where I live is FYE and Wherehouse and no luck on any DVD store website that ships. No costcos close, and they don't have any version at Sams club. I guess I'll just have to wait till the next time I travel and hope to find one in another city/state. I'll actually go into the CC/BB stores and double check today though.

i see the 2-disc with comic at Tower i think. also, think i saw at CC, but anything without the Lenticular Cover is inferior i think.

The set I'm looking for is here on ebay australia:

Auction

It says it was only released in Australia but I could have sworn I saw it in the US. If I go ahead and purchase a region 4 DVD, would there be anything I need to know about playing R4 dvd's other than needing a multi-region player?
Am I crazy or has this never been in the U.S.?

Nope, wasn't available in the US, but it is a pretty nice looking set. Luckily the 3rd disc is just the Soundtrack, so I'm not missing anything except for the cards.

Hot damn. That's an incredible looking set. Is the R4 label a sticker or permanent?

By the way, I like how this sellers' other auctions includes Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as "VERY RARE"

Thanks for the replies folks. I guess I never saw this in the U.S. like I thought I did. I'll either buy one off ebay, maybe lenticular or wait till I can find one in the stores somewhere with the cardboard cover. Crazy, but if I get the DVD I've gotta have the cover. No clue about the sticker.
