    It's not out to buy on R2 until 10Dec but is being released on R1 on 28Aug.

    Just pre-ordered from Amazon.com for $49.47 delivered (under €40). That's with Expedited International Shipping (6-22Business Days).

    Item(s) Subtotal: $38.99

    I'm really sorry to drag this thread back to the top, guys, but I've got a question...

    I was going to buy Heroes on amazon.com, but I got a little notice at checkout mentioning something about these being new DVDs which would not necessarily play on the 'all regions' DVD players of some international customers.

    Before I order- has anyone had this problem? (I've got a cheap all-regions player from Plustron)

    your dvd player will have to be set to region 1 and not region free,

    it was a new thing they brought in to stop region free players running
    region 1 disks,

    if your player can be set to a specific region rather than just region free you should be fine

    I got the same message when ordering.

    I've got a SONY surround sound/DVD player which I got a hack to region 0 some time ago. All I can say is my particular copy works fine on my region 0 player..
