Count the number of inner rings on the playing side.

for a 4K UHD disc -
2 rings = 66gb
3 rings = 100 gb

I've also checked all the discs in the 4K set. No special features and disc 1 of the Blu-ray portion has an unskippable Lost in Space trailer.
Ugh, foam hubs again!!! Why?!? My whole set of s1 discs are scuffed and scratched thanks to this packaging scheme.

Thanks.

You check a UHD disc by the number of serial number rings around the inner hub on the data side. Two rings, it's normally a BD-66; three rings, it's a BD-100.

Looks like a BD-66 to me.

There were lots of people discussing this issue in the Season 1 threads. Many had scratched discs in both the UHD and blu-ray sets.

I went through 2 sets and both had scratched discs.

Default Stranger things have happened to cover art.

I worked up some Blu-ray cover art using that poster which can be found here.

Just for kicks I started playing around with a version calling out the 4K UHD release instead.


(Click on preview above to download full size image.)

The image dimensions I'm using are only intended for a case that holds 2-3 discs though. Guess I could work up a version with a larger spine for cases that can hold 6 discs. I don't even print cover art. I just use the front and back portions with my cataloging software. In any event, questions and comments welcome.

Forgot to mention that November 6 is Stranger Things Day, as that's the day Will disappeared.

The Target Black Friday ad just dropped. There is no specific mention of Stranger Things being included in their BF Blu-ray sales.



Either they're not pushing it this year in the ad itself or Netflix didn't allow it to be included this time around.

I thought they just put them out. I remember the thread going crazy when one member stumbled on it.

So are these actually being sold at Target right now? Not sure if I should get it now or wait. When season one was being sold, they had them for as low as $5 or $6, at some point.
