Thumbs up Preferences For Collectible Packaging

I recently took to collecting cool-looking/rare Blu-ray packaging, but I've learned that I'm developing tastes for what I like and don't like.

For instance, I really like it when there's some sort of sculpture, toy or creatively designed case made especially for the movie. Thus, I'm pretty excited for the upcoming releases of Jurrassic Park Ultimate:


Pirates of the Caribbean Four-Movie:


...and even the Scarface Humidor edition (which I may actually buy since it's an extremely limited edition):


On the other hand, there are some types of "collector's editions" that don't tend to tickle my fancy in the least. What I really don't like is when the "collectable" packaging is little more than a big cardboard box and some paper products (books, postcards, etc.). For example, I'm not excited over Ben Hur Ultimate:


Citizen Kane Ultimate:


...or even the packaging of the Star Wars box set, even if I'm looking forward to the movies themselves:


In fact, I think it's a (minor) tradgedy that Star Wars doesn't have some cooler Blu-ray packaging given the collectable potential of such a set. I mean, can you imagine death star packaging or a big ewok head or something cool like that?

I'm also getting a little bored of digibooks/steelbooks and iron packs because they never really wow me like more elaborate packaging.

Those are my tastes. Is anyone with me? What are your preferences?
