Of course I am. Hopefully if I continually post pictures with it, someone will sell me a Man On Fire slip for £1 .

They did have 1 more yes, but it had some of the cardboard peeling off at the front. The one I got is mint, bar some chipping in the bottom right hand corner. Brighton HMV have had a total reshuffle in the Blu-ray section, which I will further invstigate on Friday. Was nice to see I encountered a bit of luck, for once .

@ demicsy: oh yes, I am using them on all steelbooks and slipcased editions. Outlander was send to you with one as well

@ chip75: thanks mate...Yeah I am completing my Nolan collection step by step ....and yes that Memento was ebay haul...The slip is a bit damaged but overlooked it as it was very low price and might just pick another one in the future. It is really a massive slipcase!!!

@ NHassell18: all 3 are excellent choices...I picked up The Unborn almost same way as you did...didn't care for it much at first but then it became my favourite lenticular....Moon slip totally changes the overall look of that blu....Nice additions!!! Keep them coming....

Hey everyone,

I need to confirm something. Did any of these UK releases ever came with slip:

The Box
Underworld (1,2,3 - not the boxset, separate releases)
Knowing
Reign Of Fire
The Fourth Kind
Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow
King Kong
Pitch Black
Chronicles Of Riddick

Haven't seen any yet but wanted to know for sure.

Cheers

[jimmy21]

I think The Box did. Didn't it have one of those annoying short slips? None of the others, though.

Hey, just wondering where did you get you TDK blu-ray from? I have looked everywhere for one with a slip cover. My local sainsbury's has two but the slip covers are battered on both!

Also what is that plastic wrap you put on? Are they actual wallets?

Thanks, Jay

Hey Jay,

I've found TDK on ebay.com. I'm sure there are still few sellers who have it. You just need to look, check the item's description and if it doesn't state if there is a slip or not just contact that seller. I've found plenty of my slips this way.

Those covers on my blus are just regular plastic resealable bags for blu-rays. Also from ebay.

PS: Just did a quick search and here's one TDK blu new/sealed with slip for a good price: http://cgi.ebay.com/Dark-Knight-Blu-...item4f8ef7ed67

Speaking of wraps, mine arrived in today and I sealed up all my slipcover boxes, steelbooks, some DVDs etc. Still debating whether I should just fit one over every blu.

I did manage to fit my Dawn & Day Arrow sets into them (with the help of some cellotape to make them little bigger lol).

Well, the my Arrow sets don't really need a plastic wrap around them. They already come with the slipcase sealed in. I surgically open them at the side so all the content slides off keeping the slip protected in its own plastic.

That's a beautiful slip you have there!

------------------------------------------

On a side note, I received today some UK and (many) US BD sets. Most of them were on sale like the US sets of Lost S1, S2, Vampire Diaries S1 and they ALL came with slip. I think that Amazon had a box of forgotten first shipments with slips. Here is the list of sets I got today ALL with slips:

*The ones in red I didn't expect to receive with slip*

- All Star Superman
- Burlesque
- Megamind
- Scott Pilgrim VS the World
- Lost S1 (recent sale)
- Lost S2 (recent sale)
- The Vampire Diaries (recent sale)
- Legends of the Guardians
- The Dark Knight UK (from eBay)
- The Hills Have Eyes 1 & 2 UK (resembles the Planet of the Apes collection slip)

Pics tonight when I get back home
