The first sign of the first twoToy Storyfilms drawing near on Blu-ray was a listing on Danish retailerLaserdisken’s site, offering up a March release date. Word about this bubbled about, then pretty soon after I saw that theBBFChad certified the new special features for theToy Story 2disc (for some reason, the first film is still outstanding). Next the discs started appearing on the websites of US retailers, as reported byBluRay.com, even including what would appear to be cover art. The release date appears to be set for March 23rd – for now, anyway.
After the break, a list of all known special features on the discs – which includes someToy Story 3material – an also a first look at theArt of Toy Story 3book.
Now, each of the twoToy StoryBlu-rays has it’s own sneak peak atToy Story 3. On1we will be getting something calledThe Story, while2will come withThe Characters.
Here’s the rest of the line-up, at least as far as we know so far. Where are the expanded video commentary tracks? Where are the four hour in-depth documentaries? Where are virtual shoulder rubs from beautiful Pixarians?

you may also see, from the cover art at the head of the post, that each of the BD discs will come with a DVD copy too. A great policy, I think.
If you still haven’t spent enough money in pre-ordering those, then maybe you’d also like to reserve a copy of The Art of Toy Story 3 from, say,Amazon. Here’s the cover:
Listed as being in this no-doubt gorgeous tome are:
…an extended introduction showcasing the art and story development behind the first two films, a special gatefold ofToy Story 3color scripts, as well as a gallery of over 250 pieces of concept art. This deluxe volume provides a memorable narrative of the entireToy Storytrilogy.
Where’s… my… credit… card…?
Talking of expanded picture-in-picture commentary tracks, my own personal favourite kind of Blu-ray candy, theBBFChave certificated one forDumbo. Superb.
