Harry Potter Years 1-5 Limited Edition Gift Set (Sorcerers Stone/ Chamber of Secrets/ Prisoner of Azkaban/ Goblet of Fire/ Order of the Phoenix)

I received this yesterday and even though the box was slightly damaged in transit, I was still totally happy with it. I of course haven't had time to watch everything yet, but I have seen the first movie. It is great quality and if they are all like this, then I will be extremely happy. What you get for the money is a lot. You get all the first 5 movies in glorious full HD. You get a bonus DVD that is from all of the movies. You get a game which I haven't tried yet, some collection cards like in the movies and some metal bookmarks. Everything is well made and I will be keeping the bookmarks and cards still in their original covers and making sure they get protected as they might be worth something in the future. About the films, well we all like the films, they are some of the best movies made in our recent times, they are fun, entertaining and beautiful at times. All in all, I would recommend this to any fan of the films. If you love Harry Potter, then this is a must have.

I had been holding off on getting HP on home video for quite some time. I only had Half Blood Prince on DVD and am perfectly happy with how good DVDs look when upconverted to hi-def (ie I don't plan on rebuying pix I have on DVD when I eventually go to blu-ray). I was kind of disappointed with Warner Bros. bare bones HP sets that include all 8 films. I know next holiday season (2012) they will have an amazing collector's set for the Potter series but I decided to go for this set and buy Deathly Hallows 1&2 to complete the collection now. Time will tell if I should have waited, but this is a great collector's set that includes films 1 through 5 each with it's own bonus disk, the packaging is really cool as well as the trading cards and high quality, metal bookmarks. For the price I paid ($26) here on Amazon, it is an amazing deal and you really can't lose even if you plan on still getting next year's collectors' set!

I love this gift set. The box it comes in is super cute but its not very well made but its not crap either its really cute thought and is about a foot long and about half a foot tall (I'm just guessing on measurements). The box has a clamp so the box stays shut which is good. Inside is a Harry Potter Bonus DVD which is in a cute case thus as big as a CD case. It includes- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone: A Glimpse into the World of Harry Potter, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secerets... Revealed. Harry Potter and The Prisioner of Azkaban: Something wicked this way comes; The Makings of Harry Potter and the Prisioner Of Azkabann; An interview in Spanish with Alfonso Cuaron, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: Behind the Magic; Some Animal Magic; Dark Matters, New Masters, and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: The Rebelion Begins; Fulfilling the Prophecy. Harry Potter Year's One and Two are also inside a decorated CD case kinda thing. Which includes two disc's; Disc one the movie, Disc two Bonus Disc. Harry Potter years Three, Four, and Five come in a decorative case as big as a small notebook (more like a regular DVD case. Also including the movie disc and Bonus Disc. This set also includes a Harry Potter Interactive Game (DVD). (play this in your TV) An envelope labeled - Mr. H. Potter The Cupboard under the Stairs 4 Privet Drive Little Whinging Surrey which opens and contains the Harry Potter Trading Cards. Also the Gift Set includes a Bookmark Collection including a set of Five Harry Potter Bookmarks, one bookmark to represent each year- An owl with a Hogwarts letter for Year One, a Gryffindor Chrest for Year Two, a Snitch for Year Three, a Firebolt for Year Four, and a Crystal ball (the Prophecy) on a stand for Year Five. Everything in this set is super cool and totally worth the money i recommend this to any Harry Potter fan.

You can get all five disks for less than $25 from WalMart, but this is a must-have for any Harry Potter fanatic. The cases that the DVDs come in are unique and beautiful. All the special features are exciting to watch. The DVD game is entertaining, but after playing the GameCube/Wii video games, it's clunky and awkward to play - it's still nice to have, though. The trunk comes with several extra goodies such as stickers and beautifully-made bookmarks. The trunk itself is smaller than I initially expected, but it comes with everything and the quality is good, so I am not disappointed. I've owned this for months now and the trunk hasn't fallen apart, which is an impressive feat since there are several kids in the house. Couldn't be happier overall.

La idea es buena, pero es de mala calidad, remendado, frágil, tapan las áreas dañadas con cinta adhesiva!! Los diseños en los discos, dejan que desear en cuanto a la calidad de la imprenta....

Like everyone else, I read the reviews and with the more recent reviews stating that the issue with the special feature disk seemed to be resolved, I took my chances. I received my DVDs today, checked them all and they're all in working condition which makes this a great value for under $30!! I'm not a huge Harry Potter fanatic, I haven't read the books but I love these movies so this was a great buy for me. Having read the reviews I think a lot of people complained about other silly things. You have to realize 'you get what you pay for.' That means straight up, basic packaging. No muss, no fuss. If you're looking for fancy packaging with bonus features and what-not then you should look into getting the gift set! People complained about flimsy packaging or complained they were disappointed when they did not receive additional bonus features. This is NOT supposed to include special features, this was only a (disappointing, inexcusable) mistake on some people's orders. ***These DVDs are nothing fancy. Just the movies in individual cases, and that's it.*** If you are looking for additional features or games then you will need to buy those features separately! If you are looking for expensive or cool packaging then buy the gift set!! As for me, all I wanted was the movies and this set is just what I was looking for at a reasonable price. I actually prefer the compact packaging of this set. The cases are thinner and take up less room than regular DVD cases. One more thing, someone else had mentioned this before, and I just wanted to confirm, there are A LOT of previews on the 5th DVD so you'll have to skip ahead to get to the movie.

Just received my set and i can't believe how good it is. Firstly the package is amazing it's so much fun. The box is really well made and the dvds are like school books. The bonus disc is great (watched all already). The dvd game (which is a region 1 dvd) shouldn't work in my player because i'm in Australia, but it does and is heaps of fun. The cards are cool and come in a cute little envelope. But the coolest bit i think is the bookmarks. I just showed my sisters boyfriend and he said he would buy the set purely for these. The quality of the films is also phenomenal. I couldn't believe this one bit i watched, the part in goblet of fire with the boot portkey. You can actually see the creases in the leather. On the whole one of the best purchases i've made and a must for all hard core Harry Potter fans.

The quality of the box set is great! I love the BluRay clarity and that I can explore all the Limited Edition bonus features. The reason I gave 3 stars is because the additional footage isn't in the actual film. You have to go to the DVD Menu and watch the scenes by themselves. So it's not very useful to buy these DVDs when I could go watch those scenes on the internet. I was hoping the additional footage advertised meant that I was watching an extended version of the films with those scenes already in the movie. Also, this is the British edition because the first film is called "Philosopher's Stone" instead of "Sorcerer's Stone." Other than those miscommunications, the price was high. I found the same box set for $20 less on a different site about a month after I bought this. Probably my fault for not shopping smart, but $20 is pretty significant with delivery included. Overall, I'm happy because for about $10 per movie, I got a lot of bonus features and of course have the most important part, BluRay DVD Harry Potter films. What's not to like?!!
