I wouldn't be surprised to see Amazon UK's price go up - the listing went active well before Arrow announced that the first print was a limited edition. So if you haven't pre-ordered already, do it now just in case.

If it is a price mistake will they still honor it? I remember when they made a mistake on the pre order for the BR LE tin years ago; quite a few people got it for only $13 or was it $18...I can't remember.

The tin cost $18.89 once conversion/shipping happened (the price was £8.84). I know I got in on that deal. :bananadance:

Yes, Amazon will honor it (i.e. Grindhouse Blu-ray for $13.99 just a few months ago).

What is the price everyone pre-ordered it at? I was waiting for the Region Free confirmation so I placed the pre-order today. What's odd though is that Amazon.co.uk has it listed as £14.99, but when I actually place the order it shows up as £12.76, which is fine by me.

Removal of VAT charges. It's customary for most UK-to-US shipments. I got the same value.

They charge you for pre orders when they ship correct? Pre ordered it today, have enough to cover it but would be broke for a day until I get paid again.

About a week ago I did those two, plus Metropolis and Back to the Future.

Arrow has confirmed it will be three (3) Blu-rays and ALL content will be playable on US players! The production on the non-LEs won't start until February, so if you order yours now, you'll be guaranteed the LE.



Ten years after the theatrical release, we finally have the definitive release coming to our hands in a month's time.

Even if 5,000 people have already put in orders ahead of you?

I might be wrong but I don't think, if you ordered now, that you would have to worry about missing out. Blu-ray is still niche-ish and the movie is in the cult category. I hope it sells well, but I hope everyone that wants a copy of the LE will get one.

Hell yeah. I'm going to order it as soon as i get home from work tonight.

It'll be my first imported Blu-Ray. Interestingly, the Tartan NTSC Battle Royale DVD was my first DVD import.

Where have they confirmed this? All I've seen is a notice that Arrow says all extras will be playable on US BD players, but no indication that the third disc will be a Blu-ray.
