If they are these cases in a big box whoever's in charge of Blu's at Universal will probably get fired.

8 Movies in 8 Amarays = £83.92
8 Movies in Digipak or Digistak = £36.00

So basically if you like 4 of these movies you'll get 4 movies for free in a smaller box. We should really be grateful that the box set is £36 and not £80!

I'll wait for the reviews, and if Universal haven't demolished the restorations with DNR then I'll order from Sainsburys

The Apocalypse · 07-16-2012, 08:45 PM

Seriously considering getting this

For that excellent price

hedliniv · 07-17-2012, 01:00 PM

Has anyone created custom individual case art for the set yet?
(Similar to the individual releases?)

I would absolutely LOVE if the set were actually 8 individual cases and a slipbox - doubtful though....

Eidolon · 07-17-2012, 05:16 PM

i;d much prefer orginal poster art to those photo covers.

tollickd · 07-20-2012, 10:54 AM

It looks great. I laughed about the Le Momie as it reminded me of Willie Scott's introduction to Indy in The Temple of Doom, 'it's pronounced Mummies!'

The Apocalypse · 07-20-2012, 02:38 PM

That French set looks great. Why do we so rarely get unique packaging?
