United Kingdom Box Sets with individual cases

I've just started buying Blu-ray movies and trying to bump up my collection. Box sets are great, but I prefer the kind that come in separate Blu-ray cases - You know the kind? Like getting 3 movies dirty cheap.

Like this and this.

All suggestions are welcome.

Be warned about Planet of the Apes: Primal Collection, which gives you the worst of both worlds. It's an outer slipcase with 4 individual slim cases inside, each one containing two films. The cover for each individual case has the front cover for the first film on the front and the front cover for the second film on the back, but with a "Not to be sold separately" message. (Kinda silly as they don't have the appropriate BBFC logos on so couldn't be sold separately anyway.) And the inside artwork is the back cover from each film's separate release.

Open to anything that isn't romantic comedy.

Thanks

Here's a few:
War boxset
Gladiator/robin hood/spartacus
Gangster boxset

All the movies have their own cases.

Hope this helps

I think the Dirty Harry set has switched to 2 cases for all the movies now DaveSimonH.



I prefer separate cases too, even if they're slim cases.

Thanks for all the suggestions so far. Seems the Batman Anthology is now a 2 case double bill set.

There's also the Matrix Trilogy box set

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Complete-Matrix-Trilogy-Blu-ray-Region/dp/B001CEE1YE/ref=sr_1_1?s=dvd&ie=UTF8&qid=1419849335&sr=1-1&keywords=matrix

£8.10 at the moment.

The Dirty harry box set now comes in two cases rather than 5 separate cases.

The US set is better, it includes the Animatrix and Matrix Experience sets as well, all 5 titles are in slim cases, but with a thick outer slipbox...

Also available with individual cases.



Not exactly individual cases (2 films per case), but it's still quite bulky.

Give it time and you'll be begging for slimline packaging

I feel exactly the same as you about having separate cases. I get custom covers printed and buy empty cases for those that come in digibooks etc. (I know, probably OTT). Anyway, in my collection I have the Hangover Trilogy set and the Jurassic Park Ultimate Trilogy, both of which contain separate cases for each film.

I have the X-Men Quadrilogy set. I might just take the case off and sell it and get the rest of the films individually instead of upgrading to the latest boxset as it is an on-going franchise. It never stays complete for long.

Are you certain? Every unboxing video I checked on YouTube showed only one case with the discs inside - they were all US videos though.
