I don’t own a Blu-ray player, so I’ll need to find a DVD copy of Heart Like a Hand Grenade. Hope the other documentary receives a separate release in the future.

If you own a PS3/4/5 or Xbox Series X they can play blu-ray.

You can buy a budget Sony blu-ray player for around $65. There are also cheap external blu-ray drives for computers on Amazon for around $50.

It's a perfect record. My only gripe is the title and band name could have went across the top instead of how it is. 

 

Can I borrow 8,000 dollars. 😄

This is what I've been saying! Their prices have been ridiculous lately. I was willing to spring maybe 150 on the vinyl box set but 200? That's too much especially considering the Dookie box set cost less but had more bonus goodies with it.

It's $280 in Canada, plus I also want the red and black splatter vinyl which is $55, and on top of that Warner Canada wants to charge $45 shipping.
The total comes to $425.58!!
Fuck that, I'll wait for them to be available on Amazon or something. I'd order from 1234GO! Records cause I have mail service just half an hour away across the border, but then I'd get dinged on import tariffs coming back.

I only bought the red and black splatter vinyl because I don't have American Idiot on vinyl and I wanted it.  It looks so good! :wub: The shipping for this item only on Warner Canada was only 12$. So that was okay. The bundle was too pricy for me... I can't wait to have that 20th edition even if it's the same album haha. :happy:

The expense of the vinyl set is probably purely the fact that there's eight different LPs in there. Vinyl ain't cheap

This. Plus it's coloured vinyl what makes it even more expensive.

The Dookie Box with coloured vinyl was about 240 € if I remember correctly? And that was only 6 LPs.

With AI we get 8 LPs + 2 Blu-Rays

I’ve tried with two different cards. I feel like it’s a GD store issue.

It went through for me, but it was still wonky. I got the confirmation email, but it never took me to the confirmation page after clicking "buy". Weird.

Did someone know where I can buy the CD Boxset here in Italy?

Amazon didn't seem to have it at the moment

Are the booklets between the LP and CD boxes the same? I know they’re different lengths but I wasn’t sure if that was due to them being different sizes, or if one had more content than the other.

Apple Music has the album up and playable for CD1. Wonder if they remastered these or just used the AI track originals? This isn’t the case for Spotify yet.

They can also have digital album 1 of warning and 21stCB anniversary editions 😂

Weird of all the concert footage they have shot only a mini concert is included 

I knew Storytellers wouldn’t be involved as Warner doesn’t own the footage and VH1 would lease it out but it would have to be a co production with Warner and VH1 it would have to be a stand alone release as I doubt Warner would want to split the money for the entire boxset with another company

I could order it to France  through the EU Green Day shop. Shipping was around 9 euros, and because the price is under 150 euros there are no additional import fees, says so on the website.

Yes but high quality. I remember the TOTP performance as being totally epic, they weren’t meant to play more than 1 maybe 2 songs but played 4 (I think) by which time crowds were gathering and it was amazing,  the Jools Holland performance was also spectacularly good, look out for Robbie Williams in the crowd.

I'm confused by this, it's 285 dollars first of all when on the official store it's 170 dollars for the CD set, second of all it doesn't show the vinyl version on there (or maybe it does and I'm blind) and third of all it says Oct 4 release date? did they push it back 3 weeks? Or was this a mistake or the original release date that got pushed forward like we see now. This is JB HI-FI aka australia's version of best buy

And yes there's no vinyl besides the epic awesome red vinyl

I see $69.98 on the official store right now

I was looking at the track list for the demos and I have a theory about the song Lowlife. Without hearing it (obviously), this is just a guess. Knowing how Billie reuses ideas, like Black Eyeliner and Church on Sunday, I wonder if Lowlife was later reworked into Take the Money and Crawl, the line that goes, "High on lowlife, hit me with a dull knife!"

well thats the usa store price, lucky for u guys lol. also tru there's a correlation there

How did you only pay $450? The Warner store wants $18.62 shipping for me?
