Default Blu-ray Cases: Which ones are used by Disney and Dreamworks? Where can you get them?

I apologize beforehand if I'm posting this in the wrong section. Anyway, I'm a big Blu-ray movie collector, and a couple months back I bought the "How To Train Your Dragon" Blu-ray/DVD combo pack and the "Bolt" combo pack that includes the Blu-ray/DVD/Digital copy. I ordered both movies from Amazon.com. When I finally opened my movies, I noticed that both Blu-ray cases for both movies were damaged and broken. This might have occurred while the movies were being shipped. I would have returned them back when I first bought them, but I didn't open them till recently, and I'm sure I can't return them anymore since I bought them off a third-party seller. I can't stand when Blu-rays don't include their slipcovers and I certainly find myself much more annoyed when the cases are damaged. Therefore, I'm looking to replace "Bolt" and "How To Train Your Dragon" by either completely buying new movies, or perhaps just ordering some Blu-ray cases off the internet. I know it sounds silly to buy new movies just because the cases were damaged, but the thing is that if I buy cases for them, I'm not sure if the cases are going to be the exact same ones that Dreamworks used for "How To Train Your Dragon" and Disney used for "Bolt." So can anyone out there tell me which exact Blu-ray cases does Disney and Dreamworks normally use for their Blu-rays? I'm not even sure what the exact sizes are for the Blu-ray cases that "Bolt" and "How to Train Your Dragon" were included in. All I know is that the case for "Bolt" was able to hold 3-discs, whereas, the "How To Train Your Dragon" case was able to hold 2-discs. I would appreciate it if someone could help me figure this whole thing out as far as what to do, and which cases to purchase if you convince me to just buy the Blu-ray cases. Is this a good site to buy them from, and if so, are these the authentic cases that Disney and Dreamworks use?

Thanks.

You can buy the cases off amazon itself..look for the ones which can hold three discs.

Just contact Disney directly and they'll replace the cases for you. Go to disney.com and go to the contact section and send them an email via their technical support form.

My Tangled case was cracked badly. I just sent them an email asking them if they would please replace my cracked case for Tangled and included my address and they replied the very next day saying my replacement is on the way.

I believe all studios will do this if you take the time to contact them. Sometimes it's just a pain to find the contact info, but Disney was easy. I'm sure Dreamworks will take care of you as well.

I've purchased cases for my custom BDs and DVDs from here and have been very happy with the quality.

I've also used these cases to replace oddly-package releases that don't sit nicely on my shelves so I replace those with these normal cases. I hate packaging like those for Back to the Future, Avatar Extended, etc.

But the ones on Amazon don't look like authentic Blu-ray cases...

I think I'll just go with this option, and that means emailing Disney themselves. Thanks, bud.

Glad to help. Got my replacement case today too to my surprise. A BIG kudos to Disney. I made the request on the 6th and got it on the 9th. Now that's customer service.

Nice! I just sent them an email last night and they replied right away. Hopefully, I'll receive it quick as well. Now, I've got to see if Dreamworks will grant me my Blu-ray case.
