but the box is like a HUGE oversized VHS box ... doesnt fit anywhere properly
I had a separate glass shelf made just for box-sets and book volumes bigger than those which fit into my library. Its two parts - the lower one has all the hugeass volumes of books like The Arabian Nights and shit, and the upper one holds the DVD box-sets. My wife has some framed movie posters set on either side of it.

Makes quite an impression on the guests. :D

It was a limited release - 100 boxsets only or something. Released back in August last year.

Cost me around $55 with tax.

The box looks amazing, but the packaging is rather disappointing...the dvds are packed into cardboard covers, and they are slipped into plastic casing...which is quite flimsy.

Another one is made, and set next to it. ;)

It might get full very soon...I am planning to get the Angel boxset (saw it at the store and fell in love with it!) and some others pretty soon.

Its slightly different over here - the guests are in awe and ask endless questions, and the wife burns me down with her angry glare, as if saying "You got your 1000 bucks worth, showoff?!" :o
