Yea, me neither about the slip cover a month ago.
BUT WHAT?! You don't like the SLIP COVER? With the price they're selling it at, they better include the freakin slip cover ("pay more, get more")! :P
And what's the Circuit City ad like that it tricks you into believing it'll be a 2-discer? I haven't seen it yet. d:
Well, in the Circuit City Ad, in small black print on top of the MULAN II DVD picture, it says: 2 DISC.

But the Best Buy ad didn't say anything. So I'll just assume it's only 1 disc...:(

I love slipcovers! When they serve some other purpose than just replicating the coverart. A nice hologram effect is fine with me (I prefer the ones that open like a book, though)! But you are right, with the amount of money they charge us, they should give us slipcovers. Or better features or something. :p

That's horrible. D: And embarrassing.
Wherever. Whatever. Have a nice day.

Yes, I emailed about my missing A Bugs Life collector's edition slipcover. My reply was

"Sorry the slip covers were a limited edition and we do not have any left."

Grrrrrrrr so looks like i wont have any luck getting the Finding Nemo one. :(

Well from now on when theres a new release im gonna check before hand if it has a clipcover or not, that way if i buy it and no slipcover i'll go elsewhere and get it. Does anyone know if Bambi will have a slipcover? And also does play.com normally supply the slipcovers? :)

That isn't necessarily true! I called in and got slipcovers for The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, and Alice in Wonderland...

Now, here's what I'm wondering...

Did Disney actually make a SLIP COVER for MONSTERS, INC.?
because I could've sworn, I saw it long time ago (when it first came out) at Wal-Mart... :?

I'd be willing to put money on the fact that I've seen it with a slip cover as well when it first came out. At least, we got it here in Canada

For the record: No, Monsters, Inc. was never released with a slip-cover. It came out before the practice even started.

Kinda funny,I know a lot of people who can't stand slip covers. Personally I always liked them for whatever reason.

It may have, but at least in Canada here we got a slipcover on ours. Unfortunately, I didn't buy one at the time. However, I'd be willing to put a lot of money on the fact that it did in Canada

Have you tried calling Disney?
I don't know if it sends overseas because no one's posted about it...

This is great! So now I can get a replacement Mulan cover since tragedy struck.

I have a question though, is it the American slipcover or Canadian one? the Canadian one would have a few differences like the ugly thing on the cover that tells us it's in French too... I still prefer a Canaian cover since that was the one it came with.

slipcovers

Post by purplebluelove99 »

Someone already posted the instructions on here. But I'll tell you them anyway. Call the phone number that's on your dvd and ask them for a slipcover. They sent me a U.S. slipcover there is no french writing on it. Good luck!
