YES!! This is exactly what i wanted from a blade runner box all these years, a nice thick slipbox with a digipack and booklet, dreams come true after all :)

Ah man, mine just arrived, the trays have been shattered during shiping and the digipack is crinkled as well, hope the replacement copy will be in better shape..

Yeah man, they shipped it in such a thin cardboard it's like a thing between paper and actual cardboard. Got my apocalypse now redux from amazon uk as well and it arrived absolutely pristine, so i hope i'll be lucky next time :)
 
Disappointed that the booklet is a reprint of the previous hardcover version that was included in the previous Blu-ray boxset that came with the miniature vehicle/car.
 
Which cut of this is best and/or watch first?
Thanks

The Final Cut
Especially if you want to view the best version and if you have not seen any version of the film yet
I would then suggest after watching the final cut you watch the excellent Dangerous Days Documentary that's on the Blu-ray extras disc

After viewing the dangerous days documentary then watch the Theatrical Cut and Director's Cut and then the workprint version

If you are anyway tired you likely will fall asleep if you watch the Theatrical Cut as your first choice if you never watched any version of the film yet :LOL:

Only watch the Dangerous Days Documentary after you watched the film itself as the Documentary contains spoilers

The workprint is a favorite of mine - because it is the famous "Denver/Dallas Cut" that led directly to the alterations that would manifest as the Theatrical cut. It includes things that did not make it into either the Theatrical/Director/Final Cuts. (Also, the last reel has Planet of The Apes music instead of Vangelis because the music was not yet finished for that part of the film).
It is a workprint (and therefore pretty loose)- but it is the uncut raw vision that Ridley had before all the alterations.
Dangerous Days is one the greatest "making of" documentaries ever made. It was directed by Charles de Lauzirika - and if you don't know his name, you know his work. He has made just about every great "Special Edition" DVD/Blu ray/Laserdisc Out there. Alien Quadrilogy set, Alien & Aliens Special Editions, Terminator Special Editions - he puts those all together.
He's the Spielberg of Special Editions and "Making of Docs" on discs - and
Dangerous Days is his Masterpiece. 3 hours never seemed so short!
