Mine arrived in perfect shape. Amazon UK used a box (not too thick or big but just one that was right sized for the set) and it was totally fine. Nice thing is the set itself doesn’t even have the usual foreign rating labels plastered all over it. The only part that does is the back cardboard information piece. Seems like the exact same release as the US version only the book opens vertically whereas from what I’ve seen the US release looks like you flip it horizontally.

I never thought you could sell codes on eBay? Or at least some get through, but quickly shut down...

I will say, even if you get your hands on a HDX code and not just the boxset...you are in for a treat. Seriously freaking impressed and I haven't even played it in my movie room yet. I rarely say this, but I feel like I'm watching for the first time all over again and me and my son just went through the dvds/sd copy for the first volume and a half about 6 months ago. Such a difference.

With copies of the popular Batman: The Complete Animated Series Deluxe Limited Edition nearly sold out, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment and DC Entertainment have made available – effective today – the streamlined, content-only Batman: The Complete Animated Series Blu-ray/Digital box set ($89.99 SRP). The 12-disc set (plus a digital copy) features all 109 remastered episodes of the landmark television series along with hours of bonus features, the heralded 90-minute “The Heart of Batman” documentary, and the recently-remastered, fan favorite animated films Batman: Mask of the Phantasm and Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero.
Amazon will continue to offer Batman: The Complete Animated Series Deluxe Limited Edition Blu-ray box sets while supplies last.
“Demand for the most acclaimed animated super hero television series in history has been tremendous – nearly all of the 70,000 Limited Edition Blu-ray box sets have been sold across North America,” said Mary Ellen Thomas, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Vice President, Family & Animation Marketing. “So that all interested fans have the opportunity to own this beloved series, WBHE felt the need to create another option to accommodate everyone.”
Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, the Emmy Award-winning Batman: The Animated Series captured the imaginations of generations during its initial broadcast airing from 1992-1995, setting the standard for super hero storytelling for the past quarter-century with its innovative designs, near-perfect voice cast and landmark approach to DC’s iconic characters and stories. The series garnered a Primetime Emmy Award in 1993 for Outstanding Animated Program, along with three additional Emmy wins and 13 total Emmy nominations.
Batman: The Complete Animated Series Blu-ray/Digital box set’s enhanced content includes 25 featurettes, two popular animated films; introductions to five episodes by producer Bruce Timm; and commentary on 12 episodes by various combinations of the production team: Bruce Timm, Eric Radomski, Paul Dini, Kevin Altieri, Michael Reaves, Boyd Kirkland, Shirley Walker, Glen Murakami, Dan Riba, and James Tucker.

So same exact discs/same digital copy code without the Pop figures and art cards?
I checked less than an hour ago and BestBuy still had the deluxe set available for 79.99. I got a copy them and it was sent in a box with extra padding. Arrived in perfect condition.

Have they fixed the SD/HD issue on the digital copies yet?

^ I got my copy from Best Buy but I held off redeeming it until I knew this issue was sorted out.
It's a nice set. Still available with the Pop figures for $79.99 on their website. Shipped to me carefully in a box with air cushions.

Be aware that V3Ep29 (Batgirl Returns) transfers to myUV as Ep 3 of Batman: Super Villains which does not import to FN as that series is not on FN.
While V1Ep15 (Cat and the Claw Part 1), V1Ep16 (Cat and the Claw Part 2), and V1Ep23 (Vendetta) all transfer correctly to myUV, these episodes do not import into FN.
FN stated none of the series is UV. I explained that all but 4 episodes imported. They still insisted the series was not UV on FN and suggested I contact WB
WB stated it is a VUDU issue.
I submitted a help ticket to VUDU and hoped to get an answer or fix. I hoped this gets resolution and not passed to UV support.
As of now they simply re-pushed the episodes to UV which changed nothing. Basically those 4 episodes are licensed as being from other sets.
Stay tuned.

Dang, that's cheap! Swap Target with Best Buy and that second sentence is true of me as well.

Ah, should have known they were pricematching someone. It's the same price at Walmart.com

Man, that's a tempting price. I was going to hold out for digital, but that's close to a digital sale price plus the physical discs.

Buy that now without thinking about it. The regular set won't be getting that cheap for months.
