The previous season of "The Walking Dead" ended with Rick and the group outgunned, outnumbered, and trapped in a train car awaiting a grim fate. What follows is a story that weaves the true motives of the people of Terminus with the hopeful prospect of a cure in Washington, D.C., the fate of the group's lost comrades, as well as new locales, new conflicts, and new obstacles in keeping the group together and staying alive.

Stories will break apart and intersect. The characters will find love and hate. Peace and conflict. Contentment and terror. And, in the quest to find a permanent, safe place to call home, one question will haunt them: After all they've seen, all they've done, all they've sacrificed, lost, and held on to no matter what the cost...who do they become?
Three weeks ago we brought you the studio's formal press release for The Walking Dead - The Complete 5th Season, available August 25th on DVD and Blu-ray Disc. The announcement's third paragraph revealed that a third configuration would also be available:
Fans can also look forward to THE WALKING DEAD: THE COMPLETE FIFTH SEASON Limited Edition. Once again, legendary collectibles creator McFarlane Toys has created another must-have unique package for the Blu-ray - Digital HD discs. Artwork and release date will be announced shortly.
Since the second season Blu-ray set's Limited Edition came out in 2012, each time the LE version was shipped, it was on the market day-and-date with the regular-package DVDs and Blu-rays for each season set. So unless Starz/Anchor Bay decides to deviate from that this time, we should probably expect it to come out on August 25th as well.

But what will the collectible package look like this time for The Walking Dead - The Complete 5th Season Limited Edition set? While Anchor Bay Entertainment hasn't distributed that image to us quite yet, we found that a new www.odvdo.com pre-order listing for the title shows an intriguing figure of a walker, whose body is mangled from below the chest, hauling itself across a flat ground while reaching out towards you. We pass along that picture for you below. odvdo.com's entry shows a cost of $149.99 SRP for The Complete 5th Season Limited Edition package. Stay tuned for updates!

Oh, and we've got a bonus item for you today, too. An ACTUAL bonus item, as it turns out: Anchor Bay Entertainment's publicity team has kindly sent over to us a heads-up that they've posted on YouTube a sample Deleted Scene that will be among the extras found on the DVD (and Blu-ray) release of The Complete 5th Season. We've got that 60-second video embedded for you below the Limited Edition package art! Enjoy...
