My Lion King Forum

One of my biggest regrets in the history of the fandom was missing an opportunity to get cool stuff by pre-ordering The Lion King Bluray. Granted, I did get a good deal on mine, but I still would have loved to own of the limited gifts that were offered. I know the Disney Store gave you free lithographs if you pre-ordered with them and I know Best Buy had a similar offer with a steelbook to store the discs in. Since Disney announced that Simba's Pride and Hakuna Matata (1½) will be released on March 6, 2012, I was wondering if anyone had heard of any other similar deals? Regardless, who plans on ordering these?

Unlike most versions from TLK 1, I won't be getting them seperate (unless they have new extra's, and I already got TLK:SP 4 times, lol).
Because I already have 2 blu-ray thrilogy sets (US & France) and the French DVD thrilogy set.

I have that steelcase though, got it from ebay.

I don't think for their previous releases there were any offers.

Are you kidding me? We never get stuff like that here in europe. We haven't got the disney movie rewards either.

Btw anyone know the releasedate for SP in the Netherlands? (bluray)

I heard it was for February.

I did get the litho for pre-ordering TLK 1 on DVD, but that's only because Belgium has a Disneystore now hehe

Yeah, I regret not being able to get the lithographs either. XP However, I did get the Blu-ray set for my birthday, so I didn't have to pay anything for it, so I guess that's pretty good. XD

I don't intend to order the SP and 1 1/2 Blu-rays, simply because I already own them from the eight-disc special edition set, and I don't really have the money to waste right now to buy copies of movies I already have. It would be nice to have them in good quality Blu-ray packaging (the discs I have are stored in this poor-quality paper container), but I don't think I'll buy them.

Sure do own the sequels in bluray . I personally own this precisely

Show-off......lol xD ^ That's pretty cool actually.

I still don't have SP on Blu-ray and to be honest, I'm not sure I'll be getting it. I'm not that keen on it and, I'd rather spend the money on something else.

Online UK retailer HMV have a pretty swish collector edition bundle thing, I believe I posted some pictures of it on here before actually.
It is made out of wood, with engravings of the characters and such on it, inside that is the trilogy on Blu Ray, a copy of the TLK Soundtrack and TLKoB soundtrack... And yet another copy of TLK (the 3D version)
its probably the best way to get the trilogy as far as the UK goes, but it really is just a collectors piece to have on display more than anything else (especially since there are only a few thousand of them with each one given its own unique number... I forget how many there actually are but I know they do still have a few in stock)

Germany actually had the same wooden box first as a limited edition (now it has the regular brown thrilogy pack).
I have that German box. Only difference is, it's not numbered, and doesn't come with the CD's.

The UK HMV limited edition box has 3.000 copies

Yep, just checked the box and that is correct. Surprised it is still in stock tbh
