Planet Earth - Special Edition £14 in Fopp

Just bought the set in store on Byres Road. This is the BD version with the correct video, etc., I recently learned.

 

great price, i think this version just has extra 10 minute making off's ? video is correct on the old version.

 

Ah just read they did in fact sort out the film slowdown that was on the previous version i have, still looks great thou.

 

In the Special Edition the 25 fps video plays back at this rate, i.e. is 1080i50, rather than being rendered at 24 fps as in the previous release, I understand.

 

was it new and sealed ?? thanks

 

It was sold as new and was sealed but with the crinkly looser plastic rather than with the very close fitting wrap. FWIW there were many sets all similarly presented and with the Special Edition marketing stickers on the plastic wrap. Maybe Fopp (HMV) got lucky in the Amazon Black Friday sales and is selling these on.

 

Picked up a copy a brand new sealed Special Edition this morning, in Glasgow union street branch, it was marked @ £30! scanned at £14 many thanks op

 

they only had one copy of the original version in the covent garden store priced at £25
