Pictures of YOUR replacement color cases

[tylergfoster]

There is a thread about where to buy replacement cases and I know there have been a number of threads about where to buy alternate colored cases, but is there a thread for pics of the movies you've put in replacement colored cases? I've seen a number of these cropping up in other threads (the Halloween Collection thread comes to mind), but not a dedicated thread.

If there's another one of these someone can let me know. I generally get rid of bad cases with the review product I get, and so I've picked up a few unique color cases here and there. Here's a photo of the ones I've changed so far:



All of these were standard blue. The French Connection one is slightly translucent gray, not black, which I think is more fitting than piano black. I wish The Bling Ring one was more of a vibrant primary yellow (it's kind of sickly, banana yellow-gray), but I think it works.

EDIT: In case anyone's looking for colored cases, here's an extremely non-comprehensive list of titles they came off of. I also added a couple I know exist but I can't recall what they were on. If you can add to the list, let me know.

Clear (Viva Elite): Cohen Media releases, Short Term 12
Clear (Vortex): Drafthouse Pictures releases, Sony 3D titles
Clear (Scanavo): Criterion releases
Solid "Piano" Black (Viva Elite): 2013 Fox SDCC Exclusives, Halloween box set
Solid "Piano" Black (Vortex): Can be purchased online
Translucent Gray (Viva Elite): Sidewalk Stories
Solid Red (Viva Elite): Passion
Translucent Red (Vortex): Pain & Gain Collector's Edition
Translucent Green (Viva Elite): The Incredible Hulk, Whip It, ParaNorman (Canada), Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas!
Solid Yellow (Viva Elite): The Hero of Color City
Translucent Orange (Viva Elite): Can be purchased online
Translucent Pink (style unknown): Unidentified Japanese releases
Purple (style unknown): French Bright Star
Glitter Purple (Viva Elite): UK Rock of Ages

UPDATE: This thread has been brought to my attention, re: what releases have what color cases.

The Bling Ring does look very nice.

Someone used an orange case for Halloween.

You're the first person I thought of when I did that because of that Noah thread in the deals forum.

There are other threads for that. Try here: https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=80758

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes 3D has a black case that holds 2 discs if you want one of those right away this week. Just switch out that movie's packaging with whatever movie you wanna use it for.

I put one of my Godzilla double feature packs in a green case that originally came with my copy of Paranorman. I hope to do it with all of them eventually.

Tyler, this is going to turn into the new BD collecting obsession!

[RingOfHonor]

I love this idea. I wish more movies came with different colored cases. I still have found memories of the orange VHS tapes from my youth.

[tylergfoster]

Some cases I'd like, just looking at my shelf:
a clear Vortex for Only Lovers Left Alive
a black Vortex for Safety Not Guaranteed
a green Vortex for Bad Santa
a sky blue Viva Elite for Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
a purple 2-disc Viva Elite for Pitch Perfect
a pink Viva Elite for Enter the Void
a pink 3-disc Viva Elite for Katy Perry: Part of Me

It's fun to think about. Best part is, you can always change your mind. Too bad colored Blu-ray cases are so hard to find, even to purchase outright. Why DiscMakers doesn't just have a color dropdown is beyond me.

I also just spotted one I had forgotten about:

[jscoggins]

Oh, I forgot to mention that some people use HD DVD cases since the red/burgundy goes well with certain cover arts.

[I KEEL YOU]

I wish I had a two disc case for my Troll 2.
And a red for Do The Right Thing. And an orange for To Live and Die in L.A.. And a gold one for Lawrence in Arabia.

I'd like more colors for other movies (especially clear and black), but the one I'm most desperate for is a pink case for Clueless.

[Danny4]

I was thinking of putting every movie genre in a different color case. It would look great. But then i was also think how costly this would be just for esthetic reasons, so i decided not to do it. I rather have em all blue, instead of only a few colored to be honest.

Those look very, very nice.

Has anyone ever seen a pink or purple Blu-ray case? I'm sure there is but I can't recall any specific titles.

They were a couple of European releases mentioned in The Blob (1988) thread that received a pink case. If I recall correctly, they can occasionally be bought from sellers in Japan as well. I personally don't know of any purple ones that exist, not sure on that.

One of Jane Champion's movies... If I recall correctly, had a purple Blu-ray case in France. That's the only purple one.

Lots of Japanese Blu-ray releases have pink cases but I want to buy them wholesale.

By the way, your copy of The Bling Ring looks awesome with the yellow case. I'd love a yellow case for that cover art if I can ever find one.

There was a release in the UK of Rock of Ages with a glittery purple case.

Mine came off the terrible children's film The Hero of Color City.

Gonna add a list of colored cases and a couple titles that they came off of to the OP.
