Miss Saigon blu ray is Region Free

Received my blu ray copy from Amazon.co.uk today ... almost a week earlier than the email confirmation indicated. It is indeed Region Free ... watched the entire show already and it played perfectly!!! Note: Disk 2 is "The Heat Is Back On ... The Re-making of Miss Saigon" is not a blu ray ... it's a Region 2 dvd so will not play in most US players unless you have an "All Region" machine. So anybody that is frustrated by the lack of a US release date you can safely go ahead and order it from Amazon.co.uk right now and be enjoying it probably months before they ever get around to releasing it here.

Yes, I realize that this has been mentioned in another post but the subject of that post did not refer to the region coding of the dvd/blu ray ... just the fact that it was being released. The original post was getting farther and farther down in the list of topics and could easily be overlooked which is why I started this new posting with the subject line indicating the region status of the blu ray so, for those who were looking for confirmation of that fact, might have an easier time finding that bit of information.

Whatever works best for you.

i never received mine

I pre ordered the blu ray on October 17th from amazon.co.uk. It was originally being delivered between Nov 1st and 4th.

It was finally shipped on October 30th, but I still haven't received anything yet. I contacted customer service and they said my item will be delivered on November 14th. No tracking information is available.

I didn't think it would take a month to receive something from the UK.

Yes, the Blu-ray is region free, however, the accompanying DVD with some of the bonus features is not. At the end of the day, you're buying for the main program. It does not disappoint on this region-free Blu-ray.

I think part of the delay is because these shipments have to go through customs. It's worth the wait ... and it's 1000 times better than waiting around for them to announce a US release date."


Still, it seems everyone else received theirs in an adequate amount of time. I feel very lucky: I pre-ordered the DVD and received it two days after the release date. It's weird there is no tracking info.

If it was shipped postal mail then it wouldn't have arrived Friday since there was no mail delivery due to Veteran's Day ... though mine came via UPS.

Was the West End revival the same staging as the mid-2000s UK tour? Looks that way in Youtube vids.

Mine came UPS so perhaps yours will still show up today.

FINALLY! I just received my blu ray. Amazon ordered me a new one and it only took 2 days.

I watched it twice already lol.

For anyone interested:

The Miss Saigon: 25th Anniversary Performance Blu-ray is currently £9.99* on Amazon UK.

*£9.99 includes VAT. Amazon automatically removes VAT from US orders, so price comes down to £8.33.
