Thank BB. All Amazon did was just ride their coattails.

As usual

Don't like the new cover. I'm still looking forward to watching this in the next few weeks.

I like that it's $9.99 now for those who don't have it, but I'm OK with what I spent($14.99). Besides, I like the cover on the original collection a lot more than the new one.

$9.99 is a total steal for this set. Everyone who doesn't already own should grab it up.

+1

Really dislike the new covers!

Just wondering if anybody has any further information about them, if they are new transfers or include additional features or not. Perhaps it's just new reissues? I do notice the Home Alone edition comes with a DVD and Digital Copy. Here are the cover artworks;

Sorry to harp, but is everyone sure that this version (snarling Kevin holding blow dryers) does indeed carry the 'Family Fun Edition', with commentaries and docs? Read on a few other forums it was not.

The outer box does not list the contents, but if it doesn't contain the "Family Fun" edition it would have to contain a brand new Blu-Ray disc not previously available in the United States, ostensibly created specifically for this release.

I got this edition from Best Buy. It's the exact same discs (Family Fun for the first one and barebones for "Lost in New York") with different cover art.

Sold. Thanks!

Just picked this up last night at Best Buy. It was the last box set left... I've been looking everywhere for this... Especially at this price.

Bought this at BBY with the $2 coupon. $8.66 total basically getting each film for $4.33. Wasn't going to buy it since I didn't know it had the same special features from the previous edition blu-ray. But apparently it just different cover art but same discs.

Great, thank you. Just got it in the mail from Amazon, haven't opened it yet, and the spines look different from the Family Fun Edition. I was worried HA1 would be some sort of new barebones edition.

I don't mind the new artwork on the outer box or on HA1, but I don't like on HA2 how it's a picture of Kevin the same age he was in part 1. At least it looks that way. Looks like it's from the same photo session even. It doesn't even look like a whole other movie, set a year later and in an entirely different city.

Such a good deal!

I just watched the Blu-ray yesterday and I had forgotten about that scene where Kevin runs around the house after he discovers he made his family disappear. I know I've heard that music before, I can't figure it out and its driving me crazy! Anyone know what that fun little piece is called?

If you have a smartphone or tablet you can use Soundhound or Shazam (both free) to detect what it is. Although if it's just a bit part of the movie's score and not a slice of a proper song it most likely wouldn't show a result. Worth a shot though.

Thanks. I will try that. I looked at the end credits, but the song wasn't listed there. I know I've heard it before...

Is it possible to get the old artwork box set? Or do I have to get this set?

You might have to try Ebay if you want the old artwork. Not sure why you don't like the new one. I think it looks pretty.
