I must disagree. The Friday the 13th box set was released as a series of slim line snap cases, but one of the reviews I read about the set discussed the poor quality of those cases. The slim design is too thin, and the discs have trouble staying secured inside. Gave me the impression that the slim cases are a cheap, low-quality alternative to the standard Amaray cases, so I'm grateful they went with the latter.
That said, I'm not altogether pleased with the packaging for the Star Wars Trilogy, either. I love Digipak, but that really wouldn't have been appropriate in keeping with the design of the prequel releases. But there are Amaray cases that feel good and solid, and then there are those that somehow feel cheaper, like the plastic is thinner or something. The prequels have the solid kind, but unfortunately, they gave the OT the cheaper. Oh well.
As for the cover art, I have no problem with it. As noted by DAVY, it's consistent with the prequel movies, and I'm fine with those, too. I've certainly seen worse.
Given that the OT has been released in silver (widescreen) and gold (full screen) editions, and the prequels have thus far been released in gold (widescreen) and blue (full screen) editions, I wonder about the edition colors for ROTS. If they follow established trends, it will be in the prequel colors, and then the box set of all six will probably be silver and gold.
