Hi Everyone,
I am thinking about buying the Costco set because otherwise I will never get the first Mickey in Living Color. Am I wondering if many people buy the sets without the tins, though, because I would want to sell the other 6 because I already own the ones I want except the Mickey in Living Color? What do you think?
Thanks!
Niki

I have 6 out of 11 of the Treasures right now, and I am anal and will shell out the money for the ones with the tins if need be. I just like everything to look the same in a collection. That's just me though.
On the surface I'd say no, but then again, I was able to get all of the original Treasures in Tins when they were first issued. Thus I have not been faced w/ a decision as to whther or not to purchase a MMiLC for $100+.
If you are just interested in the content I can give you MMILC R2 for 25 bucks. Or I will trade it for the Disneyland Set if you have it. It comes in a tin.
I got them tinless at Costco and I really didn't care if they come with tins.
But now I want them with the tins I guess the best way to get them with Tins is on E-Bay.
Look in the bright side at least you have the DVD if you get the box set.

I'd buy some MIA Treasures without tins, although I would prefer a second printing of the tins with it's proper contents, just to give it that collectable feeling.
Personally I would not because I love the collectibility of the tins. Usually when there is something available that you can find as a better edition I go for that. Maybe it is obsessive but my dvd collection is a hobby, much like a lot of others here.
I can't find the shelve space to store the two I have.
My reason for collecting Disney dvd's is because I want to watch the movies. To get a pretty tin with them is a nice bonus but I would buy the dvd's anyway. However: now that I have two I will do my best to get all the other ones.
Just keep your eyes open on EBay. I just picked up a copy of MMILC Vol. 1 and Complete Goofy for $25 each, used but with tins. New DVDs without tins have gone as low as $30 or so ...
Some of those eSeller's are so desperate to sell their item. I just saw a tinless MMIBW with this in the description: Only 150000 Tins made! Only 10500 Tinless copies made! It's even more collectible and at a much more affordable price!
I need "Goofy" to complete my collection. Of course, I want the tin and the litograph, for collectible's sake and to match the other editions... Of course, the DVD is what really matters, but I want the complete package.
Well, I can only hope the current region 4 Treasures will sell well enough, so they may release "The Complete Goofy" here in Brazil.

hey jrbdmb,
where did you find such a steal? I don't care if a mickey in living color is used as long as everything if working. I'm beginning to wonder if I will ever find it at a decent price!
