A:AnswerThis set comes in a cardboard sleeve box with individual black blu-ray cases containing 2 blu-ray movie discs, 2 DVD Appendices discs and a Behind the scenes DVD for each movie. The Appendices and Behind the scenes discs are the same ones in the individually boxed DVD versions of the extended editions. To my knowledge this has been the only packaging for the blu-ray set, other than the initial blu-ray release box that came with an included replica of the One Ring.
A:AnswerIf it is a standard dvd player, then it will not play blue ray dvds. However, if you have a gaming console such as a ps3 or xbox, it will play the movies for you.
A:AnswerOnly the movie (2-discs) are BluRay. All the additional content is on DVD. This set sold by Best Buy in the US is region 1 and plays on US players
A:AnswerIt is true there are multiple sets circulating out there and many (especially those on Amazon) are clones of European market versions which are region encoded and will only play on players for the countries originally marketed too. This set is sold in the U.S. retail stores and will play on U.S. sold players.(region 1)
