Oh and on the price - this was the news article that initially caught my attention:
So I am expecting the price to be closer to the Walmart one.
Okay. I'll keep an eye on the Amazon pricing. That's quite high for what is essentially a reissue.
Yeah, I think they can often be listed at the RRP and fall in line with other pricing after a few days (I assume they scrape the web to compare prices because, as it stands, they are going to get no sales at that price). I notice sites like Amazon and, especially, HMV adjusted their prices during the Arrow sales to match.
Also, are you looking on Amazon UK? I can't find the listing there at the moment.
No, as I realised it was a US announcement, I went straight to Amazon.com and made a pre-order and went to the final stage to reveal the all in cost to get a copy here. I wonder if it will get a reissue here?
Probably not but Amazon UK do often list US films on their site that you can import. Not sure the difference between that and ordering from the UK site.
What you could do, is pre-order it, keep and eye on the price (as their pre-order guarantee will give you the lowest price it hits before release) and you can always cancel it if it is too expensive.
The Amazon US price inc delivery has now dropped to £47. Delivery is about $7 of the total price.
Although I've noticed I can get the original version from CEX for under half that price, just not in a fancy tin. 😁
Yeah, but... fancy tin.
Anyway, thanks for the update. I may pull the trigger on that.
