Here it is, folks! The final cover for the boxset that will be making its way to shelves and stockings across the land later this year has been released!

The Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond’s first series is contained on the 6-disc collection, which is released in the UK on November 8th and in the US on November 9th. Its special features include out-takes, deleted scenes, in-vision commentaries with the cast and crew, video diaries, The Monster Files and BBC trailers and promos.

In addition, specially written and recorded scenes entitled ‘Meanwhile, in the TARDIS…‘ will show what happened between The Eleventh Hour/The Beast Below and Flesh and Stone/The Vampires of Venice! Check out its cover below:

The DVD has an RRP of £69.99, while the Blu-ray format is listed at £79.99.

What do you think of it!? Will the boxset be a welcome addition to your collection?

Matt and Karen will both be attending a signing event in London to mark its release.

    Possibly the best box set cover yet! However, I don’t understand why the Silurian’s skin hasn’t been tinted blue like everything else in the background…?

    Love it!

    It really captures the feel of S5.

    Can’t wait to get this.

    Let’s hope this doesn’t get pushed up to another month, but on the other hand a great cover :) I think Rory should be on it as well..

    It’s usually cheaper on Amazon, too.

    The price is as extortionate as I imagined it would be, lol, but I’m lucky in that I’m fine with waiting it right down, needs to be cut by about half to make me think about buying it, especially as I wasn’t that keen on Season 5.

    We’ll see what happens.

    I’ll have to wait for the price to drop unfortunatly…But i’m so excited for it :) It sucks that 1-4 boxset costs the same amount as this series by iitself :/

    Same. I’ve waited this long for the box set, I may as well wait a little while longer until I can buy it used on Amazon :)

    @Ced
    Yup, it’s real. But I don’t think it’ll have this awesome cover.
