				Of the people that have Lion King on dvd, do you have the whole box set, or just the dvd?
I have just the dvd, and I am wondering whether or not to buy a box set as well (expensive though! 

 )
So I am curious how many of you just bought the dvd (like me)

				Hi Kelly!
I have just the DVD, actually I have two, since one came from Disney Movie Club by surprise, which will come in handy for a friend who doesn't own it.

				I have 2 DVD of Lion King.
But don't own the Box Set it's to expensive and not worth it.
I would not buy the Lion King Box set because it just has paintings and extra that's not worth extra money.  
 
I'll spend it on something else.

				I got the box set!  
 
I don't know if it is worth buying the box if you already have the DVD... it all depends on how Disney-obesessed you are.  
 
Anyway, you can alway E-bay it!

				I was planning to get the box set, but changed my mind at the last minute and got the DVD alone.  I don't have space in my room to display the sketches, I probably would've only read the book once, and I wanted a lot of other upcoming DVDs at the time.

				I only own the DVD, but you probably should have made a third option because I'm sure a fair amount have purchased both.

				I caved and bought the box set knowing in the beginning that it probably wasn't worth it to me.  But I figured I might be mad at myself later for NOT getting it so I got it.

It isnot a problem!

The problem is have a huge amout of money to buy it, but having money and a credit card... the R1 dvd set are a just few clicks.

				I've got the boxset. I actually didn't intend on getting it because the price seemed a bit hefty for some sketches and a book, but my sister got it for me for my birthday. I'm going to do the same thing with Aladdin this year (aim for the dvd alone, but won't protest if I receive the boxset as a birthday gift).

				I got the DVD box set last year for my birthday present! I love it and i am ecstatic about the upcoming Aladdin box set! I can only hope that Disney will continue this wonderful trend with the rest of the platinum releases.

				I just bought the DVD during the after Thanksgiving sale because it was marked down to nine bucks! I just didn't feel like spending the extra money for the giftset.

				I bought the Gift Set only because I planned on there being a Gift Set for Aladdin (which there will be YAY!) and I was hoping for one for TLM (still am) so I bought the TLK one just do I could have the whole set of Gift Sets! 

   I'm really glad I got it too, the scketches are really nice, I pull them out every once in a while to look at them, and it just looks nice sitting on my shelf! 
 
I really hope they do the same thing for the Little Mermaid, atleast if not the rest...

				I admit I caved in as well and just ordered the Box Set for the same reasons as catNC. I had the Toy Story and Fantasia Boxes as well and now I'm looking forward to the Aladdin one although it probably isn't *quite* worth it either 
 
If you're around my age ... (which I've picked up somewhere around here that you are) ... and don't have too much money to throw around ... then I'd probably think about it some more.
And yep! There's always ebay when you find yourself swimming in too many copies
