Next week, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts rolls out into cinemas, and we know a lot of you are understandably very excited about that. However, whether you're a longtime fan of the franchise or an intrigued newcomer, you definitely have some catching up to do.
Luckily, Paramount Pictures has just released an awesome Limited-Edition 4K Ultra HD SteelBook set collecting Transformers, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Transformers: Age of Extinction, Transformers; The Last Knight, and Bumblebee, all in gorgeous 4K Ultra HD.
The fact these movies are presented in SteeBook cases is a definite bonus, and they're each adorned with gorgeous artwork depicting fan-favourite characters like Optimus Prime and Megatron. That alone arguably makes an essential purchase, but it's what you'll find on the discs that impressed us most.
As well as the movies themselves on the aforementioned 4K discs, they're each accompanied by a Blu-ray packed with bonus features. There are hours upon hours of behind-the-scenes content, deleted scenes and more, meaning you can take a deep dive into both Michael Bay's historic five-movie run and critically acclaimed spin-off Bumblebee (which saw Hawkeye and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse star Hailee Steinfeld put herself on the map as a blockbuster actress).
A collectable decal sticker is a welcomed addition, and while there might have been room for a few more exclusives like that, we can't fault the set when it comes in at such a reasonable price (the RRP is £119.99 in the UK).
Bay's approach to the Transformers franchise has long been a point of contention among fans, but there's something to love in each of these movies. Whether it's the bonkers storylines, those jaw-dropping visual effects, or heck, even Megan Fox's scene-stealing presence, there's fun to be had. As for Bumblebee, that opened the door to a new approach to this series and Rise of the Beasts promises to feature the best of both.
With that in mind, we really can't recommend this Transformers 6-Movie 4K Ultra HD SteelBook Collection strongly enough. The ultimate set for fans of the Autobots and Decepticons, you need to add this to your collection before it's too late!
The Transformers 6-Movie 4K Ultra HD™ SteelBook® Collection is available now.
