Transformers IS on Bluray, according to Blah.com

I've posted this on the 'Movies' board. Mods: Apologies but I forgot about the HD Movies board.

I was on Blah.com and I found the Transformers releases and, for some bizarre reason, they have a picture of it on a Bluray disc cover and available for pre order for a 4/12/07 release date at £26.99.

I've emailed them as I can find nothing about this on the web. They also have it on regular DVD and HDDVD so it can't be a mistake in that sense.

Confused...

Could it be the distrubutor for europe allowing this to be released on blu-ray, just a guess, but films that are not able to be produced in the states can be in europe depending on the distrubutor.

Distributors

Paramount Pictures Corporation (2007) (worldwide) (all media) (except Finland, South Korea)

Finnkino Oy distribute in Finland, no idea what format they support if any. However the website is clearly not selling a version from finland and so blah are simply incorrect and posting out of date or simply wrong info.

The cartoon movie of Transformers might look good if the remastered DVDs are anything to go by. I doubt any further tweeking would have taken place.

Re: Transformers IS on Bluray, according to Blah.com

Has been posted before, Blah put up preorders before any info was announced and before Paramount made their announcement. They just haven't taken the listing done
