My Lion King Forum

Question:

The new 8-disc edition available in Europe?
If so, got any sites/shops where you can buy them? (I live in Belgium, so far haven't found 1 shopt/site here)

If not available in Europe. I can buy it from eBay. Question here: Does the set contains the Dutch Dub? Or just the English version with subs?

Thx!

From what I know, they are not available in Europe. You can only import then from the US, they will not contain the dutch subs. you can only buy the one with dutch subs in NL and BE. And that's only for tlk1 so not the trilogy.

Ok, thx

Import it is then

You might wanna double check the region of the discs though, Blu-rays generally don't have region codes I think but if they do, you might not be able to play them unless you have a region free player. Just thought it could be worth mentioning.

Thx! I'll check it

You are usually fine in regards to Blu Rays, apparently due to the way they are "structured" they do not contain region locks because of that. DVD on the other hand, will in most cases not play on a player bought in another region from the disc.

Also I put a thread up the other day about the HMV trilogy collection which is pretty similar (not sure if it applies to the entire EU or just the UK though).

And the final point I will give to you about importing - the item always costs a heck of a lot more than the site initially charges. If you order that box, you will likely have to pay for a customs charge and postage and packaging.

I don't live in Europe, so I don't really know. From what everyone else is saying, I'd say you have to import it.

I'm from Belgium too, had to ask a friend in the US to ship the box to me.
The 8-disc set unfortunetly is not for us
