Ah yes, the cardboard must be inspected.

Yes ,this does seem to get lost in the discussion.

Mine too. I also noticed that the cover art on this new batch appears to be a slightly different version of the white rabbit, from what I had seen online. Or did I miss something?

That new rabbit is indeed different.

Btw does the new batch also say Dolby Atmos for the regular Blu-ray on the backcover? First batch had Dolby TrueHD on.

It does indeed say Dolby Atmos on the backcover (both slip and actual cover), where it has the specs, under BOTH the 4K feature and the regular BD feature.

I like how the old one looked like it was flipping you off and now this one is looking right at you with this antagonizing "what'cho lookin' at?!" kind of look. That rabbit hole sure is ghetto.

I bet when Trinity died they poured some 40 of Colt 45 on the floor in memory of her.

My Prime Day Matrix 4K just showed up. Shrinkwrapped slip, same bunny cover as DapperDanMan above. Found that the top part of the front cover (next to the 4K Ultra HD logo) has a one-inch hairline crack which I'm not thrilled about. Might have to find a replacement case eventually.

Really excited to watch it later tonight!

[Show spoiler]

You sure that's not a fake?

In finland slips are always under the wrap and they are always in perfect condition...

The new rabbit looks even crankier than the last one

fighthefutureofhd · 08-02-2018, 04:42 PM

You try sitting on someone's back for close to 20 years and see how you feel.

Pgcmoore · 08-02-2018, 05:23 PM

was just gonna throw the uhd disk into the ultimate box set and toss the rest of it, but the rabbit grew on me, decided to keep it, looks well enough next to the box set on the rack

GenPion · 08-02-2018, 06:58 PM

The rabbit art is awful.

I really think I’ll be doing custom steelbooks for these.

IIRC the first rabbit design is the same one that was used on Ada Nicodemou's shoulder in the movie, perhaps there was some sort of usage issue so Warners changed it on subsequent pressings. And by "usage issue" I mean "not having to pay the creator of the logo to use the logo"

Or maybe the W's just didn't like it after seeing it on the cover so it got changed.

Vangeli · 08-02-2018, 07:22 PM

The original rabbit was a Photoshopped still of her shoulder from the movie IIRC.

Would've rather they made the rabbit (and the keys and squiddie in the sequel covers) look like they were formed out of 3D code like the intros to the movies but what can you do.

RodChester · 08-02-2018, 07:54 PM

Who would have thought that derpy looking rabbit would now be collectible. Glad I got the first pressing. Someone’s going to have to make another entry here for the new rabbit.
