Truly greedy. Andy, it may interest you, but a complete boxset of the whole series is available in Region 1. If you can import it, do so as splashing £50-60 on two split things when you can buy the whole thing for almost half the price is just a waste, in my opinion.

When Pt 2 is released, Disney are releasing a UK all-in-one S1 set (but it's still twice the price of the US set :roll: )

Play has its very own Disney Store :P :D Nicely sorted into different pages and sections for boxsets, pixar classics etc.

......but...they mixed sequels with classics :P

I like the new Lady And The Tramp cover, just i dont like the black bit under Tramp, maybe it wont look so bad on the actual dvd. :)
Though the double pack cover does look nice, reminds me of the Cinderella double pack for some reason....

For those of you that dont have The Lion King II, powerplay direct have it for £13.99 here: http://www.powerplaydirect.com/asp/item ... itemsec=dv
When did it go oop? Wasnt it last January? Im thinking of buying an extra copy to sell in afew months....

Im actually quite looking forward to Bambi 2, just because i actually feel they have really put alot of effort into this sequel, just ashame people wont treat it different from alot of the cheapquels, but then its Disneys fault people probably wont care for it.

Abit obvious the cover will change, but im guessing they'll keep the overall photo and font.

I last saw the Golden Collection Vol 2 in HMV for £19.99 (half RRP) so if you can find it there that might be better (cheaper).

Wallace and Gromit:

Amazon have decided to make some 'limited edition packaging' for Wallace and Gromit's release next month. (BTW, it's only a slipcover which pops over the standard dvd case)

I have stopped buying these limited dvds from Amazon, I bought the House of Flying Daggers dvd and the Fantastic Four dvd with their own covers. Each time the dvd arrived on the Thursday when it was released on the Monday.

I wanted to get the House of Flying Daggers one, I love the movie. Is there anything extra you get with it? :)

I think it's safe to say that the cover has been changed for Lady and the Tramp.

Sendit are now showing a 3D version of the new art:
