Here is the link for just the Blu-ray.

You would be supporting HTF if you used it. No extra cost to you, of course.

How much damned difference can it make at this point?
If what we are hearing is true, there will be some minor edit flaws repaired
in this release.

Furthermore -- and I don't know if this pertains to OZ or not -- but I have
spoken with someone at Warner over the past year who has told me that
restoration tools are far better today than they were just a few short years
ago. Their methods of restoration are continually improving.

That all being said, I personally don't think that this new transfer is going to
be "night and day" above the 70th Anniversary transfer. In fact, I think any
improvements will be negligible. Of course, that's just my opinion.

The only reason I'd be checking this one out again is to see the 3-D, never was a huge fan of it - my mother HATES this movie (she grew up in the midwest with a terror of tornados) and so we never saw it as kids when one might develop a love for it.I'd really love to see a 3-D GWTW next...

It can fix the audio glitches from the last transfer.
Me, I never noticed them until someone pointed them out, but there ya go. Not that I'd turn down the 3D version if they hadn't fixed them, though.

John Fricke is doing a book, and part of his press release states that he is working with WB on a timeline of Oz events for the blu-ray bonus features....so that's one idea of mine that they went with. Smart move!
