If you missed out on the previously available Ghostbusters 4K Ultra HD SteelBook, containing the classic 1984 comedy and its slime-filled sequel, pre-orders have just been listed through Amazon for what is advertised as a “limited edition reprint.”
Initially made available back in 2019, corresponding alongside the franchise’s 35th-anniversary, the 5-disc collection was noteworthy upon release, as not only were both films presented in beautiful 4K HDR10, but a treasure trove of then-newly added special features were included, among them deleted scenes, outtakes, audio commentaries, Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray’s ShoWest Exhibitor Reel, the cast of Ghostbusters II on The Oprah Winfrey Show, original EPKs, and much more.
As the Amazon listing page suggests, the reprint is an exact release of the 2019 4K UHD SteelBook, showcasing the same line-up of features and specs. For those who already picked up a copy during the 35th-anniversary celebration, there appears to be absolutely no reason to double-dip, especially for anyone lucky enough to have grabbed last year’s now-discontinued Ghostbusters: Ultimate Collection boxset, which included even more special features, paired alongside 2021’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife.
The Amazon US price inc delivery has now dropped to £47. Delivery is about $7 of the total price.
Although I’ve noticed I can get the original version from CEX for under half that price, just not in a fancy tin. 😁
Yeah, but… fancy tin.
Anyway, thanks for the update. I may pull the trigger on that.
