I'm pretty sure they all have the tin version for now as a limited edition, no doubt in time it will be out in a card edition like the dvd. Mine was shipped yesterday from amazon so should get it tomorrow. Been looking forward to re-watching this in HD!

There is no mention of a region on the tin or the cardboard slip it comes in, or the discs. So i would assume its region free.

Got mine today, a pre-order bargain at £29.55

Oh and the box is a tad smaller than the dvd version.

mine came today aswell.Tho i got woke up by the post lady knocking on the door, having me chasing her down the street to get it lol (yes i did get dressed ).

Fantastic tin package .

Tho Play should sort out there packaging IMO, not just put it in a jiffi bag .Luckely mine is in perfecy condition.

Re: band of brothers bd uk

HMV packaged it up very well.

It was cellophaned to a card stuck inside a box so it didn't touch the sides preventing any tents.....I mean dents.

Re: band of brothers bd uk

Mine arrived from Lovefilm today. I couldn't find any tents in the tin but did manage to find a couple of dents. I quite like them, gives the tin more of a War time feel. I didn't have to pay extra for them either.

I've not seen BOB before so am really looking forward to watching it on Blu-ray
