E.T. 40th Anniversary Blu-ray Gift Sets Include a Lunch Box, Thermos, Action Figure, and More
It’s crazy to think that Steven Spielberg's E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial is 40 years old. This was the first movie that I remember seeing in theaters that sparked my imagination and love for film. To celebrate its 40th anniversary, there are a couple of 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray limited edition gift sets that might interest you.
There are two exclusive options available. One of them comes with a classic-looking lunchbox that may look a lot like the one you had in elementary school when you were growing up in the 80s. It comes complete with a thermos, a booklet, and a few other things.
Here are the new sets that are currently available:
E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial Limited Edition 40th Anniversary Gift Set [4K UHD + Blu-ray + Digital] / $64.99 – Amazon Exclusive: Includes a tin tote lunchbox with thermos, booklet, and a certificate of authenticity.
