Have you seen this DVD on your B&M stores? I went to Future Shop today and they weren't selling there.

I don't know about anyone else, but I had the darndest time finding a good copy of this. Best Buy had plenty, but a vast majority of the slip covers was heavily abused in one way or another. Checked every last one. Brand new, and looked like they had been given to a bunch of infants for playtime. That, and there was an unusually large number of floaters. Amazing.
With regard to the quality of the packaging, I agree that it feels cheap. Guess I got spoiled with the elegance of the Lord of the Rings extended cuts. Would have appreciated a similar design for Kong. But... it is what it is.
--THX

I have heard that some people don't like the packaging for this.

I couldn't seem to find one damn copy of this where the top disc on the right side hadn't gotten dislodged from the packaging. I thought I did, but as soon as I walked out the store I found that it was bouncing around in the box. Worst packaging ever. I also opted against the Gift Set because of all the other releases this week (and this month).

Disc 3 was dislodged when I opened mine, but because it was under Disc 2, it didn't float too much and wasn't scratched. But I think it's a result of cheap, cheap packaging.

I actually picked this up at Blockbuster Video for $10.70 out of my wallet because I returned a DVD that I bought from them awhile ago that was still sealed and the price was $19.99, so I got that in store credit. They of course were charging $29.99! So price wise this double-dip wasn't overly expensive for me, but I lost a DVD that I was never gonna watch to get a huge price drop on this DD. However I must say, the video is incredible and among the best I have ever seen on a DVD. So, it was well worth it! and this easily blows the 2-disc set out the door.
