Alien Anthology (Blu Ray) ?10 in Morrisons

[JazzFunk]

There's a few of these on Amazon for a similar price, so hope this bargain isn't old news. All 4 Alien flicks on Blu in a boxset for a tenner, or you can buy the individual movies for ?7(!) each instead. Ones in the box are the exact same as the solus ones, fully boxed, though are missing barcodes ("not for individual sale") so trading 'em in individually might be a bit of a no-no.

First Blu Ray movies I've ever bought, random unimportant fact fans!

Is this the anthology with the blue packaging or the one which is more green?

[JazzFunk]

It's the blue one, it's a 2012 release according to the outer box.

EDIT: Looked on Amazon at the green box version, appears to have 6 discs (this has 4). Don't know about extras, but all films have the alternate/extended/special/director's etc. versions included.

EDIT2: Appears that Disc 5 & 6 in the 'green version' were both crammed full of various extras. I've just checked the Aliens disc and it has a few commentaries and an isolated score etc. but not much else. This is probably exactly the same as that version, minus the two extras discs. Bad if you *need* extras, but cool if you don't.

(I'm OK with that, I find extras too throwaway, having lush versions of the films - and maybe a commentary or two, at a push - is what I really want.)

Yeah this blue one is the collection that I got recently and it was like ?9. Such a bargain! The extras are pretty much the same as what are on the DVD anthology so I didn't bother with the more expensive collection as I already have them, plus from what I gather from Youtube the discs are tricky to get out of the box in that one.

Thanks, ordered it.
