The Grinch DVD in normal amaray?
Has any one else received the Grinch DVD, from amazon.com, in a normal BLACK amaray instead of the green glow-in-the-dark one? Or from anywhere else for that matter?

None of the stores I went to had the widescreen Grinch in a green case - so I ended up with a plain black one. Of course all the frickin' pan and scan versions had the glorious green case. What the heck is going on? Universal sent my stores black WS cases. I guess the factories ran out of green cases. Or do you think the pee&shee kiddies would hunger for the gimmicky color cases - whereas the discriminating Widescreen enthusiasts would prefer the more-professional black casings? Since the initial press release, the kid in me was hoping for a green one. Unfortunate, but I intend to find one. Where online can I order a glowing green replacement case? Anybody want to trade me?

INETDVD.com might be the savior of the day they are listing lime green and neon green alphas and a green amaray designated as (X-Box). Check them out at:

Those glowing green cases must be nuclear. I'd stay away from those.
As for those cases on inetdvd.com, do those covers have a plastic sheet on the outside of the case (for you to slip the cover in)?
I'm looking at the pics and it appears they don't. (unless it's just hard to see.)
