So I take it these are starting to slowly show up in various Best Buys even they are not officially released, right?

 

[MayFlower]

they usually put it out a month before the actual release date since it's a pre-order item.

I'm liking these new Disney case with the embossing on the title.

Also, if you don't like a movie, then you can just buy the case for $7.50 only for display purpose

I passed on this though...not a fan of this series.

Now that I have the Best Buy case in hand, I'd have to say that I like it better than my HMV SteelBook™.

The tiny print on the spine of the SteelBook™ looks more out-of-place to me than the different case of the Best Buy version.

As bad as I feel saying this, I can't agree with you more. I really wish the HMV one matched the previous Best Buy Pirate Steelbooks.

Edit: Here are some pics:

BIG TIME!

Great photos Assassin 9!

The Best Buy version looks cleaner than the HMV version, but I still prefer the steelbook. I'm not a huge fan of the design on the Viva cases, and I especially don't like the spines. Steelbooks are designed better imo.

I agree with you that SB is designed better, I can always replace the spine with a custom made one that matches the previous 3 releases, but what I can't do is replace the art on the front cover or remove that hideous blue banner. So I went with the Viva case. The spine does detract, but I feel that the clean cover not to mention the embossing more than makes up for this shortcoming.

Thanks and I hope it helps with those still trying to decide which one to snag.
