    Still waiting on mine. Seems orders direct from Second Sight were sent out a week earlier than anywhere else. I'm hoping mine arrives on Monday. Been waiting a long time for this bad boy and I've heard nothing but excellent things about it.

    Take note that this is a Region B release but 4K Ultra HD discs are inherently Region Free, so if you’re living inside the United States you’ll want to pre-order the 4K Ultra HD set through Zavvi’s US website. The first three discs are 4K Ultra HD discs, but the fourth disc (even in the 4K Ultra HD set) is a Region B Blu-ray and you’ll need a Region Free player to play it.

    The Blu-ray version of the set includes all Region B Blu-ray discs.

    Anyone who ordered directly from Second Sight's own website had theirs sent out like a week early, so I saw a flurry of posts about a week ago with people posting their sets online (with their exclusive 4-pack of art cards that are only through Second Sight's website).

    Amazon et al's release date is indeed November 16th (Monday).

    Any American folks looking to import it - do be aware that the discs will be locked to Region B, so you'll need a region-free player. Mind you, I'd be surprised if a similar release wasn't on the cards for America soon anyway.

    Getting the BD set soon. Ordered from Amazon, so hasn't shipped yet.

    Looks beautiful though, from all the posts I've seen!

    I've never bought a standalone UHD player.
    Used an Xbox one X before and now have a Series X.
    TV is important as well. The HDR really makes a difference.
    70's grain is front and centre but the details really pop in 4k.
