ROTF DVD & Blu-ray “Augmented Reality”

Come October 2009 (date not officially confirmed yet), fans and collectors all over the world can start to lay their hands on the highly anticipated Transformers - Revenge of the Fallen (ROTF) DVD and Blu-Ray! 

Like what was available in Transformers The Movie (TFTM), the ROTF movie will be released in 1-Disc, 2-Disc and Blu-Ray versions.  And like TFTM, some of the ROTF movie packaging will have unique features. 

For TFTM, 1 of the packaging version came in an Optimus Prime DVD case that you could open up to ‘transform’ Optimus Prime into ‘robot’ mode.  (This version was sighted selling at our local HMV store during the ROTF movie screening)

For the ROTF movie, there will be similar version and this time the ‘transforming’ DVD case is Bumblebee!

Then with the advancement of modern technology, the latest ROTF movie packaging will feature the following:

“The Blu-Ray and 2-Disc DVD Pacakges also will feature augmented reality technology that will allow owners to interact with a holographic image of OPTIMUS PRIME utilizing their webcams and a special website.  Fans will be asked to piece together the Matrix of Leadership to bring OPTIMUS PRIME back to life, help repair his armor and calibrate his weapons by actually controlling his aim during target practice.”

ROTF DVD & Blu-ray - Hologram features.Street date: October 20, 2009
Runtime: 142 minutes
Pricing:
USD 19.99 (Single-disc DVD)
USD 24.99 (Two-disc DVD)
USD 29.99 (Two-disc Blu-ray)

I plan to buy the ROTF movie DVD many months later when the price is reduced, LOL!  I have the 2-Disc normal DVD packaging version for TFTM, hence I’ll probably get a similar version for ROTF movie.  October 2009 is just next month, hence the ROTF DVDs and Blu-Rays are coming soon!  Happy waiting for them!
