Band of Brothers + The Pacific Combo Set Nov. 8th, 2011 - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

SgtPepper77 · 05-29-2020, 03:20 AM

Does anyone know any details about the new Band of Brothers + The Pacific combo set coming out on Tuesday, June 2, 2020? Will it just be a repackaging of the previous set, just with smaller packaging this time around?

looks like there's a new version of this that saves shelf space, only 39.99 right now - releasing in a week?!

I got mine today. The outer case spine holding the 2 sets measures about 1 1/2 inches across. Definitely smaller than the previous set!

Any chance of posting some picks of this set?

I'd like to get an idea of the outer packaging, case holders, disc art and bonus (13th) disc if at all possible.

The outer case holding the 2 sets is, maybe slightly, better than the Mill Creek sets (30 Rock being the most recent). It feels a little thicker, but not much. The disc holders are my only complaint. They're not "tall" enough. I had a lot of floaters in my set that came in the mail. Even after I reattached the discs to their holders, they came loose when I turned the disc holder to the other side. Disc art was the same for each of the 6 discs in each set. No disc "art", but they each had the same pea green color. Just show titles and episode titles. The bonus disc is black. Apologies for the blurry disc pictures.

Did the new set come with digital copies?

Hi, does anyone know if this new The Pacific set has the veterans interviews before the episode? Thank you.

Are you talking about the "Play with Historical Background" intros, that Tom Hanks narrates, and has some veterans speaking in them as well? They're 2-3 minutes long each. After those optional intros, the disc goes straight to the episode, not back to the main menu.
