X-Men Collection question



Has anyone seen the packaging for this? I read somewhere that it's in a 4-disc digipak, and not just a box containing the two movies. Does anyone have pics or a better description?

Aren't both of the movies two DVD sets anyway? The impression I had always gotten was it was just a repack of those. Unfortunately I don't have any "official" info to back that up though... According to the DVDplanet listing it seems to be X-Men 1.5 and X-2 packed together http://www.dvdplanet.com/product_lis...roductid=35815

Someone posted a pic of his on DVDFile and it's in a sweet 4-disc digipack. The packaging's so great that I'm tempted to buy it, even though I already own 1.5.

I think I'll buy this since I don't have 1.5 yet.

What's on the 1.5 that's not on X-men 1? I've always wondered about that but never started a thread.

Also I assume the new boxset will have 1/1.5/2 all in one?

I picked up 1.5 for the extras (which I still haven't watched yet...) and the different sound format for when I (finally) get an HT set-up. I held onto the original release b/c of the easter eggs in them. Compulsive? I guess so...but now knowing that 1.5 and 2 will be in a digipak is kind of tempting....

But of course we all know that when this franchise is complete Fox will do it up right. I can't wait to see X2 again and where this whole deal is heading...
