Doctor Who - Shada (Blu-ray SteelBook) [UK]
- Thread starter paulboland
- Start date
Yes for now
It's a limited release shared print run between UK retailers
Zavvi for example was allocated only 500 from the print run
So it's likely to sell out soon also with Zavvi
Possibly as a result of cancellations (like mine, in favour of the better price at HMV).
Checked out my old VHS tape from decades ago to remind myself what's there. Pretty much nothing after episode 3. So the animation idea would certainly benefit this release. Still never got over this being passed over for completion to allow studio sessions for Blankety Blank. The shame........
The great thing is, when it's on general release across multiple retailers you don't need to play catching knives for a price drop.
If one sells out, you know to keep an eye out for another selling out, at that point you need to step in and buy. I'm happy to sit it out and play the long game on this one, if it's truly limited that will be clear enough sooner rather than later.

Now just need Zoom to reduce their price to £24.99 and I'll be able to get it with the 10% discount code! Might just hold out with my HMV order for now...

I stopped watching the show after Tom Baker left it. Even before he went the show had started to go downhill.
I'm. Sure I read somewhere that Tom has shot some special footage as The Doctor for this, hence this picture.
Yes that's correctI'm. Sure I read somewhere that Tom has shot some special footage as The Doctor for this, hence this picture.
Tom Baker earlier this year was brought back to do a live-action scene filmed as part of a project to complete unfinished 1979 Shada
As a special bonus, Tom Baker actually returns to the Tardis in the final scene, emerging from under his Tardis console.
His old striped scarf made a reappearance too
Any chance of some photos unsealed and is it gloss or matte finish and is there any embossingMy copy turned up today yay
Yes, indeed (@paulboland ), it's a matte finish no embossing, though the reds are quite reflective of light at the right angle. I like it.
Enjoy all
