Found this off the Digital Bits site.

Egg Package site.

More than I need, but not as many as I want!

I have so far only found it available for R1. Apparently it is ONLY distributed by FoxConnect. I signed up, but as expetced, distribution only within the US.

It's apparently a limited edition with a total pf 5,000 only. They did sell it (pre-orders, of course) at ComicCon. So, if you want it, be quick!

I'm very much looking forward to the Alien Anthology on Blu-ray. However, I'm torn between the packinging. I prefer the regular one, with the Alien head on it but on the other hand, the limit edition one is cool to put on display.

I think I still might go with the regular one and if I want to display something Alien, buy a statuette or something like that.

Play appears to have one. Or is this a different version?

It's been tempting, but I'm sticking with the regular packaging.

For one thing, I'm hesitant to order it direct from Fox. I've had two defective Blu-rays from Fox before, and I'd prefer to buy from a place that offers easy exchanges.

I also don't really feel the need to pay $40+ extra.

That would be Region B then, I suppose, so unfortunately not good for me. Thanks for finding it though.

I scanned through and couldn't see a link. Where did you get it for $40?

I think he meant that he is paying $40 more than for the regular version, so that would make it the price for the egg packaging.

I don't usually buy special packaged releases, but this I really would have liked.

Despite being screwed by Fox in the past (Simpsons season 6 normal box offer, check cashed 4 years ago, still no email reply or box) I went ahead and ordered this. It's just too cool not to have, and looking at other LE BD prices, probably not a bad investment either.
Please don't f me again Fox, please.
