Last week, an ultimate Blu-ray edition of both The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies was announced. Being labelled as the Middle-Earth Limited Collector’s Edition, the product surfaced on Amazon for a whooping $800. The price has since been lowered to $600 but that’s only if you pre-order.

Even with the discount, fans of the franchise are understandably unimpressed with the hefty cost:

It’s worth noting that it is an impressive 30 disc box set as it includes all the extended cuts of the 6 films, as well as behind-the-scenes documentaries, special faux-leather casing and concept art bound in a replica of Bilbo and Frodo’s Red Book of Westmarch.

But it’s still a ridiculous amount of money to spend on such a product. However, if you have got the money to spare, then the ultimate collection is released on October 4th.
