^ Nice, I might pre-order the steelbook edition as well some time or maybe just get it later on =p

My mate pre-ordered the CE for 10USD cheaper than the original price apparently. Like vah I ordered the Street Fighter 25th CE but from Amazon and was charged a Import Fee Deposit but for some reason Amazon didn't charge me that for the Avengers briefcase for some reason so thats why I was kinda concerned

From that link I posted, this is the quote from it:

Quote:
“Images of the replica briefcase on Marvel’s advertising materials, and fan video from Marvel’s product display at this year’s Comic-Con convention, show the plastic ‘replica case’ to be a close copy of Rimowa’s Topas attaché case in every respect but quality,” states the complaint from Rimowa, “from the proportions and coloring, to the style of the handle and latches, and, of course, in the use of the trademarked parallel ridges around the body of the case.”
Also apparently region 1 only =(

This guy apparently spoke to a Disney Rep - http://www.amazon.com/uk-release/for...x1GDWCXMJGQJ3P

Ah, Ok, I didn't fully read the original post, just kinda skimmed through it, so didn't take in vital bits of info about the case material! XD Still undecided about whether to get this or not... Still have my pre-order open though.

Also, I would just like to say that the guy who has said that PS3 consoles are the only region free blu-ray players, in one of your links, is wrong. The PS3 isn't region free. It's the actual disks themselves which are region free. Most are region free, but some of them may have region locks in place. This is all down to the publisher. So don't be lead into thinking that just because you have you have a PS3, you will be able to play these on there, if they are region locked. This is the same for games too, even though there hasn't been a region locked game so far, there is still the option for publishers to do so... lol

Just trying to look out for importers who plan on watching these copies.

Also, the Region thing, just to be picky, Blu-rays have different region coding. Region A - USA, Canada and Asian countries, Region B - Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Region C - Russia and India (Apparently). Mainly Regions A and B are used. Regions 0-8 are used for DVDs.

Anyway, if this truly is region locked, I will be cancelling my pre-order. Will wait for some solid evidence to indicate this.

^ Ah lol didn't see that part about the PS3 lol just read about the region lock, reminds me that I raged when Atlus put a region lock on Persona 4 Arena =/

Seems unlikely though as most of Disney's Blu-rays are region free from North America save the odd few.

Looks like we will not be getting a suitcase but a gift set

Hope they drop the price a bit =p

Although note that there isn't an official statement from Marvel/Disney.

There is also this

http://www.target.com/p/marvel-s-the...c/-/A-14178658

For those that maybe just want the bonus disc although not much is said about the one that comes with the collectors set so may not be the same one. Unfortunately Target doesn't ship internationally =(

For me i still sitting on the fence for this and wrote to amazon asking what the outcome n status of this, they replied they still in the process of solving this with the distributor so they cant share more info with me.

But they do offer to waive off my shipping charges plus upgrade my delivery to AmazonGlobal Expedited Shipping without additional cost which i felt they already doing the best they can for customers who po this. So i guess i still wait till few days before they released to hear more good news lol, fingers cross
