I already have a Terminator Head so I'm going to pass on the arm. I'm pretty sure a less expensive 4K/UHD release is coming so I"ll wait on that release. Strike that, I see a 4K/UHD release without the arm is releasing that same day.

 

[revgen]

Ron, have you heard anything about a US 3-D Blu-Ray release?

Dan,

Unfortunately, I only know what is sent to me.

 

[DavidMiller]

The fancy set includes 3D overseas but they all sold out.

 

[Jonathan Perregaux]

So, it costs an arm-and-a-leg for an arm? Good to see economics' "aggregate demand increase" so ably demonstrated.

Looks like there's a UK BD3D available for preorder:

If I did the conversion correctly, that's about $25.40 U.S.

I might jump on that title

 

[Josh Steinberg]

That sounds about right. They'll take off a few pounds for the VAT since you don't live in the U.K., and that'll basically equal the shipping charge. Preorder price guarantee is in effect so it could potentially be cheaper. I'm in.

 

[Camps]

Me three. Thanks for the heads up, Josh.

 

[3D Projectionist]

This 4K release may but be the thing to help UHD on its way perhaps.

 

[Johnny Angell]

That packaging is really nice. I usually avoid special packaging, but I could be tempted by this one, except there's no 3D. I'm counting on the 3D conversion to be as good as Titanic and that's the way I'll want to watch the move. So no Terminator Arm for me.

Another 3Disappointment for the US. If you do plan to order the 3D import, just make sure you all have a region free player. I just may consider getting one in the near future.

That may not be necessary. We don't know yet whether or not it will be region free. Amazon's region coding info is frequently wrong.

True.

 

[dpippel]

That being said, having region free capability is one of the best things I've ever done for my home theater. It's nice to not worry about it.

I highly recommend this. With domestic studios continuing to cut back on releases, with home 3D support in the U.S. declining, and with many catalog titles coming out through overseas licensors, being region-free is the best way for a movie collector in 2017 to continue with the hobby.

We don't know yet whether or not it will be region free. Amazon's region coding info is frequently wrong.

That's definitely true, but with Lionsgate controlling US rights and StudioCanal EU rights, it seems more likely that it would be region-coded for that reason.

[Editor’s Update: We’re told by studio PR reps there is no U.S. Blu-ray 3D planned – no reason given.]

The press release mentioned a regular UHD release available on the same day for a SRP of $22.99.

However, if you add this arm to the head you already own, you will be well on your way to building your very own Terminator.

If read my post again, you will see that I noted that.
