Red Steel

New, limited-edition Red Dwarf X steelbook on the way!

4 March, 2016

How many Red Dwarf video releases do you have in your collection? By our reckoning, it's possible to get your hands on over twenty-five VHS tapes, ten "full" series DVD releases, four different compilation boxsets, four "vanilla" individual series DVDs, two Blu-rays, and a limited edition steelbook. And that's just the stuff that's been released in the UK!

But now BBC Worldwide are adding one more shiny thing to put on your already-groaning shelves, with the news that a new, extremely limited-edition steelbook Blu-ray of Red Dwarf X is about to hit stores. And yes, we know there's already been one steelbook already (the standard-artwork one that HMV released back in 2012), but this one's got some rather lovely new Dwarf-themed art that we think you'll agree makes it particularly desirable. And what's more, the previous steelbook was just a DVD, whereas this one has the higher-definition Blu-ray. So don't think of it as doubling up, so much as embellishing!

At the moment the set is available to pre-order on Zavvi, with a price of £16.99. It's due for release there in April, and we should have news on its availability at other retailers shortly!
