EDIT: sorry Dinosaur isn't eligible. No points with that one
EDIT: Or MtR

My copy from HMV has a DMR code.

I've only seen pictures of it, but does anyone else feel that if they want something to look like it's handdrawn, they should just actually draw it?

I've just changed the layout of my Disney Blus. It made sense to have all the Toy Story films or Lion King films together but I think I prefer to have them in order of release and not have the slipboxes.

So I now have them:

Classics - in order of release / number
DisneyToon Studios - in order of release
Pixar - in order of release

That make's sense I'm just wondering - how come it looks like the boxes still have shrink wrap on?

Like some other people, I cut along the open side with a blade so that I just remove the rectangle of plastic to get the Blus out and the rest of the box is still protected. Some people might think I've gone mad but I always do it now. The only reason the Toy Story set isn't like that is because it was one of my first purchases and I hadn't started cutting one side yet.

We cut a flap to get the discs/cases out or they're still sealed....

I wish I'd thought of it sooner, my DVD's would still look nice!

I wish I'd done it with my Arrow Blu-rays and my earlier boxsets. I don't own many DVDs so I'm okay in that regard.

I got one today too.

And Chicken Little for £11.

My HMV didn't have any copies of Chicken Little, but I bought a numbered one from eBay a few days ago.

Also, today I saw two copies of Bolt. Both were numbered and one included a DVD copy, both were the same price (£11). Are both just as easy / hard to get as each other?

Fingers crossed its still there when I get to the store just after 9 when it opens (and a DMR code inside the box would be nice too but we can't have everything).

Now where did I put that voucher hmm....

No luck as I left the voucher in the car which my hubby had taken to work

Nyle that set looks really nice, once I get Aristocats I'll try and take a pick of my little collection if that's ok.

Thanks. Yeah I'd love to see it. I hope you weren't asking for my permission, I'm no moral authority around here.

As for The Wild I completely forgot about that one, I guess I don't have the complete set yet then after all

The wild is not available, i posted a custom job a while but heres an email off disney

Dear Kyle



Thank you for your email.



In regards to your query we regret to inform you that The Wild is no longer available as a numbered title.



We apologise for any inconvenience caused.



Sincerely

Disney Consumer Relations Team

I think they mean "is not" instead of "no longer" as it was never actually printe with numbered jewel

If its sealed and has the red plastic security tab puncture, I doubt they will care, or even know the difference.
