Are there other colors of the BD style cases? - Blu-ray Forum

QwikSand · 01-22-2008, 11:10 PM

Has anyone come across other cases similar to the translucent blue cases for BDs in different colors? I was thinking about taking my dvds and putting them in slimmer cases like the Rocky Complete Saga dvd box set comes in (slimmer rounded black cases, I can't find a picture of the cases) to match my blu collection. Any ideas?

You have the red ones... But they are disappearing now...

PS3 games comes in the white ones.

Thanks. I should look around and see if there is a place, or maybe on ebay, that I can buy some of them in bluk once I decide on a color. I wonder if there are black ones as well?

BTW, is there a name for these style of smaller cases? I know there is a term Amaray for dvds but I am not sure which case that refers to exactly, probably the regular sized ones.

let me know if you find pink ones....

All commercial ones released so far are blue. There are two shades of blue however. One is a lot lighter than the other.

If blu wins then they might release them in different colors although I hope not.

What I meant was are there cases like them that are in different colors, of course the Blu are all blue

I did find some clear ones on Ebay.

Honestly I wish they'd all go clear. The blue color is really going to clash with some artworks. I realize the need for the branding and to stand out, but once this is over I'd rather see clear

Batman Begins would be a great example of clashing colors. They should make an orange case specifically for that one. That would be perfect.

I think we'll be battling with DVD for a while (brand/format recognition) so I think the Blu cases are here to stay for a good number of years.

Ditto. Upsets the entire balance of the beauty of the blu-ray cases on display. May as well throw a "red" one in there.

The reason I wanted to get other cases was to put my dvds in them and make them all uniform, but then I realized that with the shorter cases I would probably have to cut my artwork down to fit them. I may just go with regular height clear slim dvd cases for all of my dvds. I will have to measure. I won a few clear BD sized cases on Ebay so when they get here I will measure it all out and see if it is worth it.
