That pretty much nails it on the head.
Besides, GL has said how much he liked the Indiana Jones DVD set, so I expected it to be similar in physical appearance.
There was no way it would be a digipak and I'm kinda glad he didn't. Those things get a bit unwieldy. I like to just slip one case out of the box and open it so I don't have to lay the whole thing down and unfold from here to infinity trying to get a movie out to watch. Weird as it sounds, the huge mother of a digipak that is Aliens Quadrilogy is one of the reasons that I've balked about buying it. I think I might just buy the couple I want individually.
Now what I would have liked to see for SW would have been slim line individual snap cases. Different artwork, hell yes. Check out the thread in the Restoration section all about Definitive Collection Artwork. Almost any of those would be ideal.
