Not so many for Blu-Ray so far, but there are quite a lot of Dvd CE's


Here's just a few of the nicer UK Blu-Ray CE's:

9 (Hardback)
Alien Quadrilogy (Light-up Alien egg)
Apocalype Now (DigiPak)
Batman Begins (Holographic cover)
Blade Runner (Briefcase)
Casino Royale (DigiPak)
Close Encounters Of The Third Kind - 30th Anniversary ltimate Edition (DigiPak)
Dirty Dancing - Keepsake Edition (DigiPak)
Fast & Furious 1-5 (Wheel)
Inception (Briefcase)
Inglourious Basterds (Slipcover & artbook)
Jurassic Park (Statue)
Jurassic Park (Tin)
Lion King Trilogy (Wooden box)
Reservoir Dogs (Petrol can tin)
Scarface (Cigar box)
Senna (Model F1 car)
Terminator 2: Jugement Day (Exoskeleton)
Terminator Salvation (Exoskeleton)
Terminator Salvation (Mask)
The Dark Knight (Mask)
This Is Spinal Tap (Marshall amp)
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (Box set)
Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen (Bumblebee)
Transformers: Dark Of The Moon (Megatron)
Tron / Tron Legacy (Megabit cube)
Watchmen (Mask)


There's a lot of other releases that call themselves Collector's Editions, but they tend to be just a regular release with nothing more than a cardboard slipcover. There's also a handful of other box sets (such as Alien Quadrilogy, Back To The Future, Star Wars, or The Lord Of The Rings Extended Trilogy)

How dare you sir!! [Downton Abbey expression] In today's standards it's more the other way round now as pretty all those you've list are on bluray and at many occasions can be found with two CE's of a sort...and then you get exclusive international CE's as well!

ahem, how dare you!...forget one of the most eccentric movie CE....http://www.gearlover.com/images/ulti...n-bluray12.JPG

I can get you pics if you're interested?

The Inglourious Basterds CE is nothing special really - Just a regular Amaray and artbook slipped inside a horizontal cardboard sleeve

The Reservoir Dogs petrol can is probably one of the more unique CE's out there, and was also released as a Dvd CE as well (I have both!).

I'll try and get you pics of these when I get a chance

Going by the CE's I have in my collection so far, I would say that I still own more for Dvd than I do Blu-Ray. But the format is still young, and this list also doesn't include SteelBooks. Personally, I'm still waiting for Event Horizon, The Fly, and Rocky Horror Picture Show to be released with a better CE than the Dvd releases had...

I believe that this was a Japanese release. I only listed the UK CE's

Yes. It's about the same size as the Apocalypse Now and Close Encounters CE's. Would have been so much nicer if it had been a DigiPak though, or a tin cover

There was also the Tron Play.com Exclusive CE, aswell as the Avatar one xx

Oh yes, Tron Legacy. I forgot about that one! The worst CE I have ever has the misfortune to ever buy! I wrote such a bad review for it on the PLAY.com site:

I'll add it to the list above though


Not sure which Avatar one you're referring to. There was the PLAY.com exclusive SteelBook, which came with a book strapped to the back of it, and then there was the Extended Edition which was released later, which wasn't a CE per se, but rather just a cardboard slipcover - Unless you know of another CE that I am unaware of?

[vhal_x]

No, there was a CE for it, it was numbered

It's quite large, maybe about the size of the Warhammer Space Marines CE? xx
