QUOTE(johnbluraylover @ Aug 7 2011, 07:52 PM) thanks dude, gonna to grab all? by the way, how $ in total included shipping? Grab all? No lah, HMV.com shipping is bad! it count base on item. One BD cost you £4.50 standard shipping cost. If you grab all 12 titles, means total £54.00 (RM 266.50) shipping cost!. This does not included the BD price itself yet. If you need fast, courier fees is £37.00 per item. (RM 182.60)!!! I just hope I can get another 2 more titles in this Reel Heroes series: - Shawn of the Dead - Hot Fuzz Total minimum you need to paid if purchase 12 titles is £189.88 = RM 937.30 This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Aug 7 2011, 08:24 PM

From review, it is a great documentaries.

Btw, the HMV exclusive slipcovers ..refreshing..

Not sure if i bought the same title from amazon US. UK Harry Potter is region Free not means all others UK BD is region Free. UK official is Region B locked for blu-ray. Check 1st page 1st post for more information and also on how to check the region code. UK DVD is region 2, but most blu-ray player at Malaysia is region free for DVD (or hackable), but the blu-ray is region A. (Beside Dune & Oppo). Between, the LOTR EE Blu-ray for UK is REGION B locked. It is not playable in local blu-ray player. This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Aug 8 2011, 01:37 PM

Yup, my copy is US edition, the US edition extra special features DVD is region 1 (if not mistaken the LOTR EE BD of DVD part is region 1 locked). If your blu-ray player is Sony, it is playable as Sony Blu-ray player of DVD part is region Free. If your blu-ray player is Samsung, the DVD part is locked to region 3, but it is easier to unlock it via remote control. Google around for solution. I had no idea for others brand. If your blu-ray player DVD part is locked, you can grab any standalone DVD player in market, 99.99% DVD player in market is region Free now. No issue for the BD (blu-ray disc) as US is same region as Malaysia which is Region A. ** The LOTR EE Blu-ray extra special features DVD is exactly same as previous release DVD version.
