I really like that cover, but Ariel's face....I do not care for.
Man has a dream
And that's the start
He follows his dream
With mind and heart
And when it becomes a reality
It's a dream come true
For you and me!

I think we'll most likely get the same covers, if you look at the cover there is just enough space on the left to include the title vertically.

Yikes. I like Ursula being on the cover, but that's about it. I really hope that isn't what we're getting.

I really like this! The colors are nice and it is keeping with the classier theme they did for Peter Pan. Also, lets not forget how truly ugly Disney can get with covers(Snow White Diamond Edition for example).

This. It really captures Ariel's dreamy personality and her desire to be free from the waters.

Some hottie Eric would've been nice though :-"

I actually don't mind it, if they had just added something to the background, like rocks/seaweed, bubbles, or Triton's castle. Of course, what they would actually do is jam every other character in there, so I guess we should be grateful. :P

I. LOVE. IT. ..well mostly. Hopefully it will get tweaked a little (like The Lion King cover did) but otherwise it makes me giggle like a happy brat at Christmas. Especially at the fact that's it not recycled promo art. I can just tell it's going to look gorgeous embossed and with the metallic shimmer for the slip cover.

It's awesome! I sure hope they're gonna change Ariel's face, because she's awfully off-model. Other than that, can't complain. I love the fact that they used different imagery, and that they also included Ursula. But I think the DVD will have a different cover. That has always been the case so far with Diamond Editions.

Is Peter Pan getting a non-diamond DVD release? I wonder if Disney is just sticking to these combo packs from now on.

My gut feeling is this will be the standard combo pack cover for the blu-ray/DVD and DVD/blu-ray and we'll probably get the old teaser poster art, seen on the pamphlet insert in Peter Pan, as a lenticular cover for the 3D/Blu/DVD/Digital Copy combo.

...At least I hope so. :)

I... don't like it. :(

I think they can do better for a Diamond Edition.

Fix Ariel's face, put the castle in the background behind Ariel on the left, and we have ourselves a perfect cover.

How do some of you not like it?! It looks great! It's all one image with Ariel sitting on a rock looking longingly up at a shaft of sunlight with Ursula in the background (she's in the distance not the same size as Sebastian and Flounder), with the title in the center!!! At first I thought Ursula was just more rock, she fits in so subtley and perfectly. I don't know why some of you are so unsatisfied. As Ariel says, you "want more"...

She's off model (horribly so actually) and Sebastian is as big as het entire upper body. Now I've seen the movie and I'm pretty sure he fits in Ariel's hands. Does that crab look like he fits in her hands?

Flounder is also off model. The entire image's composition is awkward and 'off'. Sorry, I'm just calling it the way it is.

I think is is subtlety beautiful. I love that Flotsam and Jetsam are there <3

I would like them to change Ariel and Flounder's faces but otherwise it's a great cover imo.

Triton is also there, "under" Ariel's fins.
