Wow! u are not pulling my legs on the bolded part, are u?

128 BD in 3 months, my hands will tired because of open the packages!

Rango is too new to NOT have a slipcover. So you shouldn't worry

Ok, will noted on this.

If for example you receive any new title without a slipcover (provided it should have a slipcover). Merely contact Amazon customer support and they will fix the problem. The only disc recently that had slipcover issues in the beginning was Summer Wars. The first press was only sent to one fulfillment center, the others just received 2nd prints. So only people in a certain area received their disc with slipcovers.

But with most titles, you should be able to obtain slipcovers months after the release date. Just certain titles like Disneynature ones that stopped shipping with slipcovers 1 month after being released.

Noob question How to know if the release got slipcover or not because some time I pre ordered but no slips for example Resident Evil 4

That information you'll have to obtain from the blu-ray forums. Sometimes pictures of the blu-rays (in advertisements) will provide the answers and you'll be able to see the slipcover in the picture. Sometimes a user on the forums will obtain a copy earlier and can confirm the slipcover (you'll be interested to know that blu-rays ship to Hong Kong up to 4 weeks before release and some shops there sell it to the public before release date) and sometimes it just has to do with the distributors and whether or not they make it a habit of releasing titles with slipcovers, etc. But it's tough to confirm from pictures because sometimes the distributors decide not to include a slipcover last minute. But most will be confirmed a few weeks before release.

I would advise just enjoying high definition movies and not worrying too much about packaging. Wouldn't want it to start influencing the way you buy your titles (not buying it because it doesn't come with a slipcover, purchasing it from other expensive sources just to find a slipcover, buying a different edition of a title just because the slipcover/packaging is different, etc). In the end, it's not really worth it (at least to me). It's a long and expensive road. Nowadays, I just want the movie.

Slipcovers eh? I don't really mind if there's no slipcover but as long as there are no short of information regarding the movie and/or the technical features.

For instance: if the movie synopsis, filmmakers credit and blu-ray technical specs also appear on the backcover casing, then it's ok for me. If otherwise, then it's a no-no... like G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra, there's no info on the backcover... and my order came without slipcover!

Like Star Trek, Tranformers ROTF Walmart Edition, and a few others It's pretty annoying when you don't get the slipcover and there's no information on both sides of the cover art.

Transformers the earlier editions with Slipcover. The both side of cover art has no information except images.

I prefer with slipcover, slipcover is one point I enjoying purchase BD beside the story and PQ/AQ itself.

But I won't double dip because of different slipcover.

That the reason also you seen me, example I get the Canada edition of insidious rather than US because it came with slipcover

If no slipcover, at least give me a steelbook or digibook.

Andrewtst, X-Men: First Class got 2 different slipcover to choice. One featuring Charles Xavier and his young mutant students and the other featuring Magneto and Sebastian Shaw's followers. You want to order both?

actually 128 in 1 month, 3 months total 200 over disc.

but this is once in a life time, no more

Yalo, both look nice, can't decide now.

That's where the problem begins!

I have given all that up thank goodness Those days, I would have obtained both copies just for slipcovers.

I still need slipcover! hehe! except slipcover like below, which look extremely UGLY and useless!

for me not so much looking ugly aesthetically, but putting 2 different format on either side of the same disc is already a 'turn-off'!!!

Rise of the Planet of the Apes LE....looks good!!!

I just hate top part is missing, with such design, I rather without the slipcover.
