The big mystery is within the outer case - what images are used on those thinpak covers...

Sorry, couldn't resist...

If you're talking about fan sites, most of the people there would likely already own all 7 seasons. So most fans aren't going to be buying these either.
I'm not surprised that you're having a hard time tracking down photos.

All of the thinpak covers are the exact same as the boxset cover:
Episode summaries on back of each thinpak.
I haven't opened the other seasons, but presume all the thinpak covers again mirror the boxset cover.

Meh, not at all what I was hoping. Maybe I'll see if the prices on the regular sets go down since I've already got the first 4 seasons anyway. Thanks for taking the pics.

^The old sets should be around in the secondary markets for quite awhile even when they disappear from the stores. I have them, as well as the "Chosen Collection" box, but just haven't gotten around to selling the individual sets on half.com or Amazon Marketplace yet.

Thanks rkndkn for the images!
Disappointing that they aren't more unique in front, but regardless it's a vast improvement in terms of convenience and shelf space.
