After dominating the charts with The Lord of the Rings, Peter Jackson turned his gaze to the book that started it all–The Hobbit. The adaptation of The Hobbit isn’t nearly as well-regarded as Jackson’s LOTR Trilogy; it takes more time to watch the film trilogy than it does to read the book. The Hobbit probably should have been adapted into a single movie instead of three. But hey, at least that means this cool box set has three steelbook cases.
The Hobbit Limited Edition Steelbook Collection has been out of print for a while, but right now you can grab it for $150, the best price we’ve seen this year. This box set normally sells for around $200, so we wouldn’t expect this offer to stick around for long.
The Hobbit Steelbook Collection (4K UHD)
$150 (was $200)
This premium collection gets you steelbooks for all three films in The Hobbit Trilogy. Better yet, it includes both the theatrical and extended formats in 4K, making this the ideal way to experience Bilbo’s adventure. Along with the three steelbooks for your six, region-free Blu-rays, the collection includes a stylish box to hold all its contents — giving you a cool way to display it in your home theater.
If you don’t need all these extras, you can pick up The Hobbit Trilogy (4K Blu-ray) for $46 (was $90). This gets you the entire trilogy in 4K (including both the theatrical and extended versions) across six discs. It’s essentially the same as the above collection, minus the steelbooks and collector box.
Looking to add more Middle-earth content to your Blu-ray library? Then take a look at the upcoming The Lord of the Rings Trilogy: One Ring Gift Box. Preorders are open ahead of its December 20 release, and inside you’ll find theatrical and extended versions of all three films in 4K, a limited-edition book with sleek faux-gold accents, and a replica of the One Ring. It’s a bit pricey at $157, but you’re getting tons of cool collectibles for your investment.
