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.

Thanks for the information, lucky I not buying Canada edition Grinhouse. That the main reason, sometimes I more prefer eBay to be more confirm came with slipcover. Or buy 1st release, no choice for more expensive a bit, as I need slipcover! smile.gif At least it still cheaper than buying the slipcover later separately.

i was shock when i found out the $ of the slipcover is actually > than the bd itself.

however as it is collector's item, i cannot comment on the $ as it is consider "art" rather than a product anymore.

some of the seller at lowyat still sell the BD with slipcover at a resonable $, but u might have to do lots of searching.

That why, if you love slipcover, is better purchase on 1st press. No need worried on how rare they are later and eventually spending more later.

RM 150 is madness for a slipcover only.

You also can get together with the BD itself, eBay is selling at US $94.99 + shipping USD $29.99 = USD $ 124.98 (RM 377.30) only! Cheap Cheap la! tongue.gif tongue.gif

http://cgi.ebay.com/Bram-Stokers-Dracula-B...=item43a8974b6c

They is another seller selling at USD $ 100.00 but not ship to Malaysia.

It's confirmed and it could be the lowest for time being. Amazon might drop it to 49.99? Don't think so whistling.gif

Will let you know on the slipcover. Wacken set is an Audio CD set. It includes Blu-ray of live performance. Wacken 2010 not the best i've seen. They should release Wacken 2005, 2006,2007,2008,2009 on Blu-ray.
