Autobots Transform and Rollout!

Bell and I had a quick browse through JB Hi-Fi and found a very cool special edition of the Transformers film on DVD. Firstly, I loved the Transformers film, one of my favourites of this year. Secondly, the DVD case transforms!

The DVDs are stored in a little cavity on the back

The transformation itself is pretty weak - but it's the first DVD cover I own that can transform!

Ingenious DVD marketing people! Apparently when Saw IV comes out - it will actually contain a human eyeball! Looking forward to that one.

The post about nothing

# Posted by Joel Dixon at 06/12/2004 23:43:00

I received my Seinfeld Limited Edition DVD Gift Set today - which is quite satisfying for me! The DVDs for seasons 1-3 have been out over here (Australia) for about a month now - but I had to wait for my copy to be sent over from the US. I personally think it was worth the wait (the special gift set is unavailable in Australia).

Here's what was included:
  • The Season 1-3 DVDs - not much to say really.

  • Seinfeld DVDs
  • A "Limited-edition original script with handwritten notes from Larry David" - kind of small, and the handwritten notes aren't very legible after the photocopy job they did.


  • Seinfeld Script

  • Monk's Diner salt & pepper shakers - pretty cool, albeit smaller than I had thought they would be.


  • Seinfeld Salt and Pepper

  • Collectible playing cards - poor quality cards, bit of eye candy really.


  • Seinfeld playing cards


All in all - I'm very happy with my purchase. I would have spent the same amount if I were just buying the DVDs - so the added extras are only really an ... erm ... added extra?
