The debossed one has them stacked (which I am returning). The flat-printed logo has the tray/flap

Create a Itunes Account:
https://appleid.apple.com/#!&page=create

Next login you your Disney Movie Anywhere account and link your Disney Movie Anywhere account to your Itunes and Vudu accounts.

Once you have done all this. Always redeem the movie FIRST on your Vudu account. It will automatically show up in your Ultraviolet account and in Itunes.

alot to do, but thats how I do it...maybe this will help someone...

Wrong. Disney movies added through VUDU will not show up in other Ultraviolet providers. They will only show up in other DMA providers (if linked to DMA) and will only be added to your DMA library. Disney films are never added to your Ultraviolet library (check myUV.com and tell me if a Disney title is in your UV library on myUV.com).

Same with Ultraviolet titles. Titles in your Ultraviolet library will not appear in your iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play libraries, even though all three providers participate in DMA. Non-Disney titles purchased from a DMA provider stay only in that provider.

My Target hasn't put any Blu-rays in coffins for months, but when I went in at 8am this morning nearly all the regular releases and Target exclusives they had out were in coffins, with many slipcovers partially crushed inside.

I found some not in coffins on an end cap near the toy department's Star Wars aisle and up by the registers, so I was able to check for and get a "tray" case and a mint slipcover. A friend of mine came in while I was there and I told him about the tray/stacked debacle before he picked one up, too.

At one point I think some of the employees started looking at me.

...it was a nightmare.

It's been talked about for the past hundred posts, along with stacked discs and wrinkled plastic.

Anyone watched their copy yet?

Right(I know they will not show under your ultraviolet account), but the question was how to make sure the movies show in both vudu and itunes. The answer is simple.. When you login to your Disney Movie Anywhere account and go under settings, you can link it to both your Itunes and Vudu accounts. Thus when you add a disney movie to Vudu, it will show in Itunes and DMA.

I do the same thing dude. All of them are going to have little flaws here and there, but most are so very small I won't even notice until I get home and really look at it and then it's usually something I can touch up with a Sharpie, particularly if it's a black slip.

But they're not skipping this one. Just releasing it later.

Not to overreact but the walmart exclusive is one of the best items in my collection and one of the best physical media exclusives in the last 30 years. I may buy all the stock in the walmarts near me just to own more. The way it looks and the cover opens and bb8 popping out is breathtaking

Purchased several copies from various sources.

I found great condition Target exclusive versions on their display. The Target exclusive is pretty much cardboard and very thin (though compliments my Saga set well). The movie disc was very slightly scratched, the rest were fine. It is just like the Spider-man trilogy case, only without the outer shell sleeve.

For the regular edition, Target also seemed to have non-stacked cases (the regular bluray cases not vortex stacked) Only a few of the regular release at Target had shrinkwrap that wasn't (it seems heated on) which warps the bluray case with creases. The non-stacked case I have had a loose disc which was scratched.

Best Buy (from what I saw) was all non-stacked and warped bluray plastic. The steelbooks were hard to judge (aside from the obviously dented and damaged ones. My steelbook copy had a noticable scratch on the movie disc. The other discs were fine.

Amazon, ironically, had the best condition slipcover. The insert had pressure marks, though was the best of all the stores for the regular edition as I saw. It came with the vortex stacked case, which holds up better it seems in regards to scratches than any other case type.
