Tagging you guys because you showed interest in the US thread... might be cheaper to import for some of you.

I couldn't resist pre-ordering this amazing film. Seeing as how it's not just fancy packaging, but a restoration how could one say no to this?

Plus, Warner's TDK trilogy included an art book and it was a beautiful specimen, so hoping it's similar quality.

Hey guys first time poster here.
This discount code 'ZAVWEL54' has never I repeat NEVEEERR worked for me no matter what title that I've applied it too. Am I doin somethin wrong???
And yes I've used ALL the links given and keep gettin the 'The discount code you entered is invalid or not applicable to the contents of your basket.' message.
Is it maybe like a 'flash sale' type of discount that quickly disappears after a day or so??
Any help.......

Having said that Zavvi sent me one of their 15% discount e-mails on selected steelbooks and THAT offer didn't work either much to my annoyance....

Hi, and welcome to HDN!

Have you tried adding the item to your basket first (through a different link), then clicking the ZAVWEL link afterwards and checking out that way? That usually solves the problem for most people.

If that doesn't work, then chances are Zavvi have caught on and deactivated the code for that particular item.

EDIT - Just tried it myself and it seems to be the latter... they've deactivated it.

happy days. one of my all time favourite films, very happy to have. fyi @Noodles @dan8885

a few pointers for those still thinking of buying:
- unless i have a bad set, this does not come in the UK with the dvd. just blu ray and ultraviolet. it's just the Amaray, with no fullslip. so yes, this means Zavvi's website describing contents is wrong.
- unlike @moon 's fantastic shots on the USA release thread, the UK release is also not numbered (again, unless i've got a bad set - or not been paying attention to posts)
- the j-card was stuck down with industrial strength gel glue, so be careful taking it off, as the gloss paper covering isn't that thick
- the ratings certificates on the box are removable.
- the Mondo art cards are beautiful, on good quality stock, and the repro is great.
- the book is nice - i don't think it's the greatest thing ever, but there's some nice shots of the earlier ideas for the giant.
- the limited edition figure is somewhat average, but i may be thinking that as i own the Mondo collectible deluxe figure.
- plus of course there the brand new 55 minute documentary 'The Giant's Dream', which i am very much looking forward to getting into.

I also received mine and agree with all the points you made. It's a shame the amaray doesn't come with a slip, but the package is still nice overall. I seriously wish they'd stop gluing the j-cards on stuff like this... there's no need for it, especially since they're always held on by the wrapping anyway. The figure is the most disappointing thing, as it looks like a cheap McDonald's toy... but then I didn't really expect anything amazing for the price I paid. I'm pretty happy with everything else though... it's great to finally own a nice edition for this amazing film!

No metallic effect on the box, PLAIN blue disc, glue damages the box ... I am a little disapointed with this. Other than that book is great, cards look gorgeous.
If you still can ... go for the US! No doubts!!!
