Looks to be the regular US packaging.

Beautiful.

For the people worried about scratches: it's next to impossible to scratch a BD. Just STFU and have a Coke and a smile.

Then Rasputin by me sure buys from someone who knows how to scratch them up real good. Not sure how they do it but when I check the used discs they are all marked up and i cant wipe them off.

It's not really hard to pull them out of the Rome set, I'm honestly more worried I'll tear the cardboard up when pulling the disc out.

Sweet! We get to slide the discs out of cardboard. Fuck those easy accessible center buttons.

Mod Note: This is a preemptive warning against those who might wish to turn this into yet another chapter of the packaging wars that seem to be plaguing this forum as of late. If you wish to discuss the packaging, remember to keep it civil.

To be fair, the cardboard does look way cooler, and I've never had a scratched Blu-Ray.

Re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th

It's not a deal breaker in any form...I just don't want to damage the packaging in some sort of freak accident that I DOUBT would happen from me but something I'd like to rest my mind on.

Re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th

Looks cool to me. And I think Fox is using the same thing for the Avatar SE, so these should compliment each other nicely on the shelf.

Re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th

Anybody have any good pics of the egg disc packaging? Havn't decided which to buy yet.

I liked that earlier design we saw, the alien head on a white background.

I'm hoping someone uses that art for a custom cover so I can put in this in a regular blu-ray case. Should look pretty nifty in a blue blu-ray case.

Or when it comes together with the AVP & Predator movies.

Yeah, I loved that art too. I was really hoping that they would go with it.
