This set can get a little pricey, but it often floats around the £150 mark on eBay UK (at the time of writing). I've seen the far inferior Anchor Bay Halloween: The Complete Collection DVD boxset sold for the same price, which makes opting for the Midnight boxset a no-brainer by comparison.

I will more than likely be making a replacement case, because from an aesthetic and practical perspective, the design is rubbish. Not only is it plastered in Halloween (2018) masks (the Trick or Treat Studios stock catalog photo, no less), but there's errors inside too (like a Halloween Resurrection image used for Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later). Then there's the fact that the discs are held in card sleeves, meaning that getting them out without getting thumbprints on them is near impossible. Also, the art cards included are quite rubbish, using variations of the theatrical posters rather than 1:1 copies (like using the Lionsgate 'flame' cover for the Halloween 5: The Return of Michael Myers art card).

I've been working on a design for a nine-way Amaray, so I'll post those in time for anyone interested!

The disc art is pure amateur hour, thankfully that and the card sleeves are the only complaints I have about this set - once I had taken the discs out there was no way I was going to be putting them back in. I have them safely stored in a 10DVD box together with the TV cut of Halloween that came in a paper sleeve inside the Italian 4K SteelBook.

Oh good idea!

I will be keeping this boxset packaging tucked away safe somewhere, as I have a Halloween shelf with multiple DVDs and Blus on display from the series. But for practicality, I'm definitely making a proper nine-way Amaray, hopefully with a little booklet that breaks down the features in English too. Here's the design I have so far:
