I have a hunch that the French Peter Pan blu-ray may be identical to the forthcoming American release (in content). Sort of an early Diamond release for the French.
I quite like this cover; I am glad Wendy is more up-front than before. If they were going to go along the lines of the Platinum cover, this is a marked improvement for sure.
What a missed opportunity to have hook's... hook... straighten his mustache. There's room for it.
Seriously, as a graphic designer/illustrator these cover designs are SO frustratingly off the mark consistently. I have no idea who makes these things and why he or she is in that position.

I completely agree. However, I am shocked that no one has pointed out that the "P"s in the title treatment are hooks. They may have been afraid of over killing the shape.
OMG!! That is a beautiful Peter Pan cover!! I love this cover and the other cover with Peter Pan´s shadow in the clock! I am glad that the Indians are getting some love from Disney!! I can´t believe that Disney put the Indians´ village on the cover. I thought Disney didn´t like the indians in Peter Pan.

Very nice cover...
But yeah, could stand to be improved:
- is it just me, or are all the "floating heads" slightly off center?
- not to encourage eating disorders... but doesnt Wendy look fat?
- Wendy's arms are uneven in length (yes, considering perspective too)
- Wendy's stiff arms reflect TInerbell's stiff arms... which creates a weird mirror-ish effect.
ANd nice as this cover is, its not as nice at the super minimal US cover (Peters shadow on the clock) or the AMAZING cover from the 80s VHS, which I consider to be one of the best covers Disney has ever done (albeit, with its imperfections)
