I wish you could get the Digipak without the Zombie head. That thing is kinda scary xD

Just a quick question for those who have the digipack. Which artwork is underneath this disc? Is it the same?

[Show spoiler]

Or Is it this one? It seems so...

[Show spoiler]

Filmfanpete is a BD God!

Yeah I think the discart for disc #1(top disc) is just the same picture, but moved down so when both are in the case it create one big picture?

Dear God, I hope you mean the overall quality is better and that they did not just DNR this release to make it appear "cleaner"! They intentionally shoot on super 16mm for a reason. The grain is intentional, to fit with the gritty style of the show. I guess I'll find out in about 40 minutes! Heading to Best Buy as soon as they open, woo!

As expected! I might have to jump on this...free shipping, no tax...no gas/time spent driving!

Find another reason to be out then it is no big deal. Don't forget BB nets you a $10 gift card.

He already does. He's on his way there right now to get The Avengers case from Best Buy.

The gas driving was gratuitous!

The other criteria are spot on. Just to report, my BB had 5 heads out on the shelf(well 2 on the shelf, and 3 on top of the new arrival island).

Picked up the Zombie Head and am proudly displaying it in my office.

Goes real nice next to Freddy.

UUUUGGGGHHHH · 08-28-2012, 02:59 PM

Still eager to see a pic of the spines of the S1 and S2 digipaks lined up next to each other.

JaseT · 08-28-2012, 03:03 PM

I just don't have anyplace to display that head, except maybe for Halloween. I still haven't unboxed my Terminator Salvation skull.

Both would probably make nice Halloween decorations!

Only reason why I got it from Amazon this time because I didn't want to miss out on the Zombie Head because 5 of my stores in town did not have the option to do store pickup. That was yesterday, but today. It's unavailable in a few stores and I'm not driving store to store after work.

No DNR was used. It is as grainy as season 1. As it should be.

I have to be honest, I have been against getting this...but thanks to blu-ray.com the stupid thing is looking at me, from the top of the page, with that tempting $59.99 price! If I ever needed black bars(letterboxed blu-ray.com), now is the time!

Scottie · 08-28-2012, 03:10 PM

I think there was 6 of these at my local Best Buy.

I didn't pick it up though because I've had it pre-ordered on Amazon since April.
