It may have been answered...but where should Razor go? I keep hearing it should be watched towards the end of Season Two, but some same at the end of Season Three before Season Four, but the disc was in my Season Four case (I just bought the series...woo hoo! Blind buy!)

Second season, between The Captain's Hand and Downloaded.


http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Ti..._Season_2_(RDM)

The reason it's with the season 4 box is that it was paid for with Season 4 money, Universal wanted an extra movie and paid for two more "episodes".

Razor should definetly be played after season three, but before season four. Don't watch it any time before that.

Baloney. There's no real spoilers, and the only one I've ever seriously considered shouldn't be a surprise to anybody who knows how storytelling works.

I wonder how long Best Buy will have the old set on sale. Because once the new one is released I bet you could place an order for the old set with in-store pickup and have a very good chance of them pulling the new set by mistake.

My brother ended up getting this from Amazon UK and I really like the art/box for this and just bought it off him since he needs $$$ now to move.

I went ahead and snagged the old set from Best Buy today. Will send off for the new packaging.

Got my replacement box yesterday, and it only took a week or so. I like it a lot better than the old box. It was great of Universal to offer the upgrade!

So was it the outer box with all the blue cases inside?

No, they are Digitpacks (like Heroes, just slimmer). No actual standard Blu-ray cases that I am aware of (maybe just The Plan?). If you've seen BSG S1/4.5 on retail shelves, it's those.

I just went the custom route since they take up less space and I hate the folding out books:

I went the same exact way but I got the new packing today and I'm quite satisfied with it. Now I have 4 empty 5 disc BD cases sitting in the closet collecting dust. Waste of money, printer ink and photo paper. :\

If anyone is interested in custom cases I'd be willing to part with mine shown in post #372. These ones take up slightly less space than the repackaging and have guides on the backs. I don't need the original packaging, custom cases and the new packaging :-)

Reason I ask is I saw the box at Best Buy, and it's just an outer box with actual Blu-ray cases inside. But it also had The Plan - maybe this is a Best Buy special box? I should have taken a picture of it.

Where did you get the art for your customs if I may ask? I bought the same cases but my art looks like doodoo.

Universal added "The Plan" to this set; it's not a retailer exclusive. "The Plan" was not in the original set last year because it was released some time after the first BG box set.

The Plan pretty much sucks. I'd never watch it again anyway.

Ok I guess where I'm confused then is Giz said the box has digipacks like Heroes, but the box I saw at Best Buy clearly has Blu-ray plastic cases in it. Could both be out there?

As far as I know, the 'new' set is all the seasons in Digibooks (Heroes). The Blue cases (like most normal releases) are Customs. But I have not seen the new set in stores, but the the replacement cases being sent out are Digibooks. I doubt Universal changed the packaging for retail. But I'm going to Best Buy now...so I'll check it out.

I'll post a link to the custom cover art when I get home.

Wasn't there some sort of Best Buy exclusive though?

Digipaks =/= Digibooks.
