That set looks nice but no eco cases?

Yeah, I could see that but a more orientated towards fantasy and horror version of X-men.

The first 3000 are only available directly from Scream Factory. >3000 can be gotten from other online retailers.

Does SF even used eco-cases as I can't recall ever getting a SF title with such a case?

I remember at the beginning of this year when TT's replicator told them that the standard viva elite cases weren't being manufactured anymore (or available within NA). Yet SF, and others, seem to be able to get them without an issue.

People are concerned since the Halloween set has Eco cases. That set was manufactured by anchor bay not shout.

So glad I pre-ordered the LE set. The box that holds the individual cases looks like it's similar to Aniplex of America's LE Kill la Kill sets except much, much thicker & sturdier plus it's nice to the individual discs have reversible sleeves to boot.

Definitely looking forward to this a month from now as is my brother, who's really dying to check Nightbreed out.


As for the "hilarious" lack of eco-cases, let's just chalk that up to something Anchor Bay is responsible for. However, I also chalk up the set's shockingly easy availability to Anchor Bay as well. If this was a standalone Shout/Scream release, I imagine I would've had no choice but to order it online.

That is true but as you say the Halloween set is manufactured by AB rather than SF.

The box kinda reminds me of the box for the AVATAR collectors edition.

Nah, it's nothing like the AVATAR Collector's Edition set. The only sets that resemble that are the Die Hard 25th Anniversary Edition collection and the ever so awesome Alien Anthology. All three have those digibooks where the discs are stored in those slips, whereas the Nightbreed and KlK LEs actually have individual blu-ray cases (with Nightbreed having regular blue colored cases and KlK having transparent cases ala Drafthouse's Ms. 45 blu-ray case).

Oh man the set looks nice. I can't wait to get mine.

So is anyone else here going to try and get ahold of just the slip from the regular release to put over the case for the directors cut in the set?

I think he just means the slip box resembles the avatar slip.

Erm..? Return of the Jedi. Ewoks being the bad 'monsters' turned heroes. Skywalker could be gay?

Will that have a slip? Doesn't really show as one in the amazon pic for it? Have they released a video of the stand alone DC?

[persuazion]

Cool to have all 3 covers in this set!

Correct. I meant the slip box seems to be made of a similar sturdy material.

Thanks. Seen that looks awesome. But I'm asking about the standalone DC release
