In a previous thread, I posted a scan of the "long box" Snow White DVD. Well, finally here are some pics. Enjoy!

I've never seen that box before. Is it some sort of exclusive thing? I was browsing ebay the other day and I saw a Sleeping Beauty DVD housed in a box just like that. Very interesting...Makes me wonder if there are anymore like that.

I think the boxes are from Costco.

Usually, Costco has drawings on their boxes.

I save so many of them for a collection.

They do that at Sam's Club too. My brother has one for Lion King 1.5

I've bought a number of them at Costco. All the DVD's are like that and I think it might be for security reasons that it is harder to steal.

Question, did TLK 1.5 also come with the cardboard sleeve at Sam's?

Oh, btw Escapay, your forum name always makes me laugh.

Wow, looking pretty! There would be know way to keep this cardboard sleeve on the shelf, but I would love to have it.

I have my ENG collectors edition in one of those boxes.. I bought it in Canada, they're quit nice

Yeah, TLK 1.5 came with the slipcover. Most of the DVDs there get that long box thingy. But Disney I think was the only one to actually do some nice art for it as the rest are just a generic blue packaging.

All DVD'S from Costco have those big boxes that they come in I just recently bought a lot of DVD'S at COSTCO and they all came in those big boxes!

At costco most of the new DVD that are just relase come with the color box covers.
But usually Disney only does the color box covers, when new shipments come from the Disney DVD's they are usually just blue.
I usually buy the DVD when they are first relase so I know.
Recently Brother Bear now has two box covers one that's blue and one that has pictures on it.

I bought Pirates of the Carribbean from Sam's and it had nice "long box" art as well. It also came with a free junior novelization of the movie.

does anyone keep them?

I keep them for over one year now.
I could make a list of the ones I have if you want me to Ludwig Von Drake.

Many CDs in stores used to come in those cardboard long boxes. In addition to making it harder to steal, the real reason for them was the shelves. They were using old record shelves, divided in half for the CDs. The long boxes just made them fit in the better. Could be why these warehouse stores are still using them?

Wow, I love the way the queen looks on that... so sharp... so sinister, lol. That could make a good poster or something.

I'd really like to see the one for Sleeping Beauty. Anyone have a picture of it?

i think they use the extra cardboard box to put a security device in. They make it look really neat though. and i ahve seen them at costco (a.k.a. price club) locations in canada. they dvd is no different i dont think. i got my family guy dvd in that

They look really cool, however I collect so much as is. No more room.
