Getting this for sure. I grew up watching those christmas classics. I hope it comes with a slip cover, like the rudolph one did.

This will actually probably be just as worthless as the Rudolph Collector's edition. Don't get your hopes up...but if your only hope is a slip cover, then you will be in luck.

Why was it worthless? I got it for $9.99 and it came with a slip, and the quality was alright. Besides, it has that nostalgia factor

Sorry.

Worthless in the sense it didn't add any real value over the original Blu-ray. For something that was supposed to be a celebration of the film, and a Collector's edition no less, the only real improvement was Yukon's coat being corrected to be "more blue".

No branching for the different versions, no solid bonuses.

Just fluff and packaging. So in my mind, it was a pretty worthless release.

I was hoping it would have been 'special'; if it had, I would have double dipped. Same goes for this one. I just wish we could get the other Rankin/Bass shows on Blu-ray, like Rudolph's Shiny New Year, Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July, Jack Frost, The Little Drummer Boy, Nestor the Long-eared Donkey and Peter Cottontail.

Agreed, and from what I've read, there's still some debate over whether the "blue" jacket is more correct than the green jacket.

For an anniversary edition, it was weak. I expect the same with this. Where's the other specials? Where's Jack Frost?

I wonder if Wal*Mart will do another DigiBook?
