Just buy some spare bluray cases & put the movies in them then copy the artwork on a scanner printer & trim it to fit the bluray cases.

Those are Disney titles, so you can ask them to send you Blu-ray size replacements.

I refuse to buy ANY bluray in a DVD case, BUT....when 'I AM LEGEND' was released, I decided to KEEP my DVD tin and I put my bluray's in that one. Same thing with 'Chitty Chitty Bang, Bang'. The DVD was a well-made DIGI-BOOK collector's packaging, but the bluray was just a simple plain bluray case, so again, I put my blurays in the DVD digibook and kept it instead.

These are the only two I have in DVD packaging.

Either size it right and print it off (I'm sure the specs are up online and easy to find) or grab a program that will fit/size it for you. I've noticed that even if you use normal paper for printing the cover, tell your printer it's photo paper and it will look much nicer.

Give UnderCoverXP a go. Just remember to select the right size after you've uploaded your cover in, as it reverts back to CD size as default.

I own one blu-ray in dvd packaging.

"Gandu" on german label Alive (Bildstorung series).



Bildstorung series blu-rays on the Alive label are released in dvd cases with slipcovers and dvd sized booklets.

Since Bildstorung has released some cult content that is not to be found anywhere else on the planet in HD, I guess it's worth to put up with their oversized packaging.

Depending on your OS your PC may not print it out the correct size, unless you use a specialized program, like UnderCoverXP.
