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

My breaking bad, I read the thread title and generalised it to CE's worldwide

Did the UK happen to get the Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle Edition? I know France, Germany and the US did. And did you also get all the Steelbooks for all the HP films? I think Germany has and so did Canada.

Not your fault. I suppose it could be, as themidlandmaster is in Australia, but you quoted my post which was primarily a list of UK Blu-Ray CE's

I can't recall whether we got it for Blu-Ray or not. I know there was a luggage case (HP 1-5?), but can't remember whether this was for Blu-Ray or just Dvd. I passed it up as I didn't want an incomplete set. I also recall there being a replica wizard's wand set, but I have an idea that it was a North American CE

I know we're due the 31 disc Wizard's Collection in September though:

No. This I am 100% sure about. Which is a shame, as these look amazing in their presentation case!

This was released in the U.K - sold at Harrods only (300 of them i believe) and also across europe, was available at Amazon.fr. It was a 1-8 blu ray CE with elder wand replica

Ahha, that's the badger!

I knew it was rare in this country, and knew there was a reason why I didn't own it. That would explain why

Yeh apparently they had some members of the cast (smaller roles) sign the copies that were for sale

so what is really rare is an unsigned UK version
