Man I thought phoning the Canadian number would get you a Canadian slipcover. I want the French. Ah well, it'll be better than nothing. :)

if you order the slipcover, do you need to pay the shipment???
No. Not if you call the U.S. Disney hotline and the Canadian one, anyway. Not sure how Disney does consumer service in Mexico.
Wherever. Whatever. Have a nice day.

slipcovers

It's free of charge. It doesn't matter if you called the U.S. number or the Canadian you still get your order from the U.S.

Of course they do. All of the Platinums have them, and most of the special editions as well (everyone that the Americans got, we got as well). There is one notable exception, several of the Americans on this board say that they have never seen a Monster's, Inc with a slipcover, whereas I know for a fact that I saw many up here in Canada when it first came out (I remember this clearly because it was the first movie I saw with a slipcase on it)

Yeah, but they all have that inane "French Track Included" printed on the cover.

Yeah, that stupid thing is a major eyesore!! I don't see why they bother, even when they put it on there, I still get people coming into work, renting movies and asking if it's in french! Can people not read?! The other thing that it does is make people think that the movie is ONLY in French. Nobody can read anymore!!

These are the British covers for the "Platinum films", as well as some of the other collector's editions:

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Beauty and the Beast
The Lion King
Aladdin
Bambi
Tarzam
The Emperor's New Groove
Atlantis: The Lost Empire
Sleeping Beauty
Mulan
Mary Poppins
Pocahontas
Alice in Wonderland

The French 2 Disc of Mulan is pretty much the same as the US and English version, although the French cover of Lilo can be found here.

The three new Miyazaki sets all come with non-book-like-opening slipcovers!

The original CE didn't come with a slipcover, but the reissue (the one in the thinner swinging arm amaray case) did. Call Disney and ask them to send you one.
Wherever. Whatever. Have a nice day.

tsk tsk, what a bad way to choose whether to buy a DVD or not! :P
anyways, you can try your luck (what Key said) by calling Disney...
or you can find a GOOD/GREAT seller on EBAY with a real picture of the DVD and its shiny cover. :)
I love it cover! 8)

That information needs added to the list (hint, hint!)

Also, Bambi: SE has a book-type SC, either with Velcro or "boogers"...

Finally, The Incredibles has a non-book SC (shiny, although the regular cover isn't shiny.)

BTW, would the Spy Kids films count? They are from Dimension, which is a branch of BVHE, afaik.

If they would count for this list, Spy Kids 2 had a nice slipcover, and Spy Kids 3-D also had one. I am not sure about the first movie, though.

Spy Kids isnt a Disney film, but the first did not have a slipcover
