| | Posted: | | | | Well, I'm getting this on Monday (it's in the mail). I'd say that the back should be what's labeled the back in the picture. It's been already accepted that sometimes the back does not contain the barcode. I'd accept a combination (one scan manipulated to have the barcode attached on the bottom) but that would be against the rules. For front, I'd pick the one with Katniss as that is what's designed to be the "front" as it's the part that opens up. As for the 3D image...well, it does show the most of the case. It doesn't "match" the rest of the database which annoys my matchy matchy sensibilities (  ) but does get most of the case into the database. It can't really be used as a real cover, I don't think, which is why the cover rules were strict, I thought. I guess I would vote no as other custom cases have had photos submitted as covers as they aren't able to be scanned properly and this may fall into that category. | | | | Lori |

Nice work. It works for me. I am VERY DISAPPOINTED in the set. The BOX is LAME, and a PAPER WEIGHT? So LAME! Why did Lionsgate not offer a Traditional BluRay/DVD/Digital Copy Combo Pack? The only reason I bought it was it was the cheapest way to basically get a combo pack! |

| | Posted: | | | | I should be getting mine sometime this afternoon according to my tracking. I ended up with this one because it was the only combo pack available and it seemed dumb to only get one or the other. I wish they had put a little more creativity into it as well-it's such a huge franchise, you'd think they'd put more effort into it. | | | | Lori |

I agree, a no brainer would have been to include one of the "Bird Pins" at least it releated to the move in some form.  |

| | Posted: | | | | OK that explains it, I didn't know that. That was the only place I didn't look when deciding on where to purchase it. I looked at BB & Target. Quoting Scooter1836: Quote:

| | Posted: | | | | Got mine and I have to agree with you. This is a pretty lame box set. The paper weight is so basic, I can't believe it's a number collectible. The extra space in the box is ridiculous. I thought maybe it was made big so you could put the rest of the series in it, but no, I think it's this big so it looks like it's worth the price. I really wish there was another way of getting both the dvd and blu-ray. This is totally taking advantage of the fans of the series. | | | | Lori |

| | Posted: | | | | I think it is about the right size for the rest of the series. If BB sells the same bd/dvd book as this. it looks about the size of 4. (Mockingjay is reportedly part 1 and 2) |
