These are numbered out of 6,000 btw, for anyone interested. The blu-ray is not remastered (unlike the standalone US WB release), however, the 4K does have DV (also unlike the US).
Is the number on the bottom of the slip? The numbered release of Enter The Dragon was a nice one too from Warner.
 
The US disc:

- There is one brief exchange, right around the 1:03:43 mark, where a few lines of post-storm dialogue between Jo and Bill are somewhat muffled before returning to normal levels. It seems as if the light presence of slightly beefed-up wind competes with their lines here... and although slightly distracting, I admittedly almost didn't notice it as I was running English (SDH) subtitles at the time. It's certainly not a major issue but worth pointing out.

Does the Dolby Atmos track on the Universal disc have this too? The time code could be different since it's a different disc and different opening credits.
 
Embossed title and a border, they've spoilt us with this one. I'm half expecting Warnershop to tell me they haven't got one left for me. Yeah I can see you've ordered it but computer says nooo. What!!?
 
Just home from work and had this waiting for me, #934. Very impressed I wish Nightmare got the same treatment as I was really looking forward to that.
 
Mines not due till Monday. How did you guys get so lucky?

Last three from HMV arrived on a Saturday.
That twisted space on my shelf is getting lonely.

I live in the Midlands, that probably helped lol.
MC Super Hub I guess. Right in the belly of the beast.

In fairness, I think my regular postie is off sick. I've not seen him.
I thought working from home this week would be a joy; timing all the purchases so they'd arrive whilst I was here. Instead this week has been shoddy as all hell for deliveries, most being 2-3 days late and another eBay purchase lost in the ether somewhere despite being tracked.
:wacky:

If the UK was shaped like a bloke, I'd be living somewhere around the left testicle.
No wonder the delivery is slow. :LOL:

Since I started collecting, this is a film I hoped would get the steelbook treatment. Really chuffed it’s happened and it’s turned out to be such a beautiful set (minus the cow, I am with @samdavies on that one!)
Yeah, I know you were super keen on this one. It is a beaut though. I really like it. The cow has grown on me in person. It's out of focus, which helps lol
 
I won't see mine for a few weeks but I'm stating to really like these slipcase editions (despite generally hating superfluous tat). I like that members are sharing their numbers too, its interesting to see you all have numbers in the same range.

I hope Universal, WB and Paramount keep doing these. I'd probably buy all of their major releases in this format (Jaws 1, Jurassic 1 &2 , Back to the future (one for each film), Gladiator etc)
