I'm getting excited! I haven't gotten mine yet, but it sounds like the floodgates are opening!

Anyone know (and may want to PM it if necessary) a way to find the method? I've got a SA-BT100.

Disc 3 played on neither my Samsung BD player, nor my PS3, but I got it to work just fine on my Macbook Pro.

Disc 3 (special features) is a PAL DVD, so the PS3 will not play it. Played just fine on my Curtis Mathes 130.

Good to hear about it in LA. Hopefully mine will be there when I get home in a few hours.

Received my order today from <s>Amazon.co.uk</s> Scarecrow Video! Maybe I'll receive my Amazon.co.uk order tomorrow if Los Angeles and Seattle are receiving their copies, but Vegas has nothing.

I will say this: I'm not a fan of "collector's sets" at all. I don't care about the physical goodies inside the box, I care about the content on the discs themselves. That being said, I was in awe of this set. Really classy (and sturdy) packaging complimented by solid extras like the artwork and essay booklets.

I've jumped around on the theatrical cut Blu-ray and I know we've touched on the PQ previously. However, that being said, isn't this transfer created by Toei? I mean, when the actual "title" starts, we're treated to a Japanese (in English subtitles) advisory of what the film is rated (R-15 in Japan) and the reasoning to why proceeded by the title on screen "Theatrical Version - 2000." If the transfer wasn't created for Blu-ray releases, it was obviously created for another HD presentation (television possibly). However, it could possibly be the only way a studio can release Battle Royale on Blu-ray is in a set containing both cuts. Who knows, I'm just speculating.

Oh and 7130/10000.

SO glad to hear that people are getting theirs in California.

Hope to get mine sometime this week. :)

In somewhat related news I'm still waiting on the Alien Anthology from Amazon UK. The website had an expected delivery date of today but alas it's not here. Hopefully, it'll be here soon.

Oh and I ordered Battle Royale 3-disc from Amazon when I saw it came back for order. We'll see.

Same story. I got Battle Royale but the Alien Anthology is still in waiting. I could have received it today, but the post-carrier refused to deliver my mail because I live down a hill and it had snowed. I was expecting BDs from eBay as well, and the delivery confirmation was falsified to say they left a note and I had to schedule a redelivery, or else it would be returned to sender. There was no signature confirmation and I have a large mailbox, so it could have fit. The mail was undelivered and the snow was obviously undisturbed, no one had ever been near my mailbox, by car or foot. Stay classy, USPS.

I'm pretty sure this nullifies 33⅓ % of their motto.

Finally. It finally arrived. :)

It's a beautifully designed package. I think you'll all enjoy it.

Still haven't received mine. I've never had a lost package from Amazon UK from my previous orders. More patience I guess.

I just KNEW that because I was home sick yesterday that it would get to work while I was gone. Turns out I was right. This is a disgustingly awesome set. I can't wait to get home tonight to dig through it.

ETA: Delivery was in Colorado Springs, CO.

Received mine yesterday. I'm in CA.

Question for those who have a LE number less than 5000. Does your certificate say 1,000/10,000 or 1,000/5,000? Just curious, cause mine says the latter.

Re: Battle Royale (Arrow Releasing)--October 2010?
 
Mine says 6045/10,000. Sounds like they did an additional pressing?

I got an email from Arrow saying mine would be shipping today via Royal Mail Air. :)
