| | Posted: | | | | The slip isn't relevant here, only the blue cases. They look to be about half the thickness of what DVDP calls HD Slim although I'll grant it's not the best photo. Perhaps someone else who has that set could compare those to a normal HD Slim, with a comparison photo if possible. |

| | Posted: | | | | I've definitely seen HD Thin cases. There's a Harry Potter BD set at my store that has them. They're very, very skinny. Much skinnier than the HD Slim.
As for additional case types needed, my opinions would fall to adding the following, because I see enough of them come into the store (in fact, I see all of these much more frequently than steelbooks):
- Digibook
- Handle Case / Carry Me Case (you know, those kids movie cases with the handle on top)
- Tin Case (or whatever they're called, those metal boxes that aren't steelbooks) | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.

| | Posted: | | | |  Here's a standard, a "slim" and two thinpacks. They are roughly half the width of slims. |

Let's just make it simple, and call them all "keep case", and add width, height and color fields to the database Colour I'd definitely disagree with. Even within the same store, I've seen a release in different colour cases. |
