This was their reply:
"Hello Maurice,
I am really sorry looks like this item is not available in your country and we do not have any information as to when it’s going to be available.
Sincerely,

So first I was able to see the item and click add to card (yet this function didn’t work). Now I can’t even see the item at all and they tell me it’s unavailable for the Netherlands.
The back of the statue is mwah… Looks like they didn’t even finish the red of the sign on the back. Expensive statue, I’m still doubting more and more if I should buy the ridiculous expensive set with Slimer statue…
In fairness, the statue wouldn’t really have been intended to be viewed from that angle. As long as the paint job looks okay when viewed from the front, I believe it can be forgiven.
Even for that price?
Who is going to be the first to complain about the lack of an accurate butt crack?
Any news if the box-set will be region free,hope so…we can’t have the rest of the world getting dumped on! walterpeck:
Amazon lists them as region free.
That’s unusual, as typically officially released Blu Rays from the US are Region A, and European releases are Region B… (see Blu-ray - Wikipedia about halfway down)… Cool thing if it is indeed Region Free…
Well, it’s weird for amazom.COM site which is mostly US based/focused to include a lot of European languages on this release. So I really think it will be region free.
Most Blu-rays are region free, both of the previous Ghostbusters releases were region free.
Amazon increased the pricefor the limited edition gift set from 104.99 to 134.99 USD. It’s really ridiculous now.

However, if you preordered at the lower price, you won’t pay any more than that price…
I know, but I didn’t pre-order as I was still doubting which version to get…
just so everyone knows, last year at Alabama Phoenix Festival, I asked Ernie about the Possessed Ray driving scene and he said he doesn’t remember punching Dan Aykroyd or regaining control of the car(a pretty big deal, it was a long time ago but seems pretty memorable) so I guess it’s not likely the scene made it much further than the exterior crazy driving, post museum Ray staring off into space, Peter Egon confused and concerned looks…
Definitely my kind of good news!
I think the most important question is why the hell isn’t the deleted fort scene finally included? !!!
I’ll leave this here…

Hopefully, videos like these will appear on the Blu-ray…
Steel Book posted front cover art for Japan and German releases
Ghostbusters 1 & 2 SteelBook Amazon JP Exclusive Japan 9/24/14 (unknown why there’s 4 Blu-Ray discs)
Ghostbusters I + II SteelBook Germany Saturn 9/30/14
Not to sound like a whiner, I bet most of us in the US would have loved to have the Japanese art on the US blu-ray discs.
Thank you for the info!
The extra 2 discs in the Japanese set include 2 “special versions” each of the movies. One is the dub as shown on TV Asahi and the other one the dub shown on* Fuji TV*.
I have no idea what’s so special about these dubs. Apparently, the other 2 BDs include only Japanese subtitles (no dub) so maybe that’s the only reason for the new discs.
