Godzilla (Blu-ray) - Limited Edition MetalPak

Check out this beautiful limited edition MetalPak for Godzilla's Blu-ray release. Complimenting some amazing cover art is some of the best embossing I've seen on a Steelbook/MetalPak - while the background and title are flat, Godzilla's tail and buildings' debris are beautifully detailed on both the front and the back. In addition, the top left corner of the front cover features a button that, when pressed, issues Godzilla's trademark roar.

The case houses the Blu-ray and DVD, as well as the UV digital copy code, and the inside cover features a shot of Godzilla facing away from the camera, standing above a ruined cityscape. An absolutely stunning limited edition for an amazing film.

They really outdid themselves with this release. From beautiful embossing and cover art to Godzilla's roar issuing from inside, this is hard not to recommend. The only way it could have been better was if they had included the 3D Blu-ray - I would have paid a little more for that.

Hey Arnold! The Complete Series (DVD) - A Walmart Exclusive from Shout! Factory

One release that completely slipped under my radar last week was Shout! Factory's release of Hey Arnold! The Complete Series on DVD, a release completely exclusive to Walmart. I had picked up their release of Rocko's Modern Life The Complete Series last year, which they did a great job on, so picking up Hey Arnold! was a no brainer.

For less than $20, you get all 99 episodes spread across 16 discs, adding up to a whopping 38 hours of mid-to-late-90s bliss. The only thing it's missing is the 2002 feature length movie, Hey Arnold! The Movie, though that's not too big of a deal, as it can be picked up for relatively cheap.

The set is housed in a cardboard sleeve. Inside you'll find two over-sized DVD cases, each containing 8 discs. The interior of the cases shows off the episode listings for each disc, as well as some promotional art. Each disc also shows off character art (one character per disc) and running time (though no episode listings; you'll have to refer to the cases).

Check out these pictures of the set: 

While a few special features would have been more than welcome... there are none. But, for the price, and the sheer amount of content in this release, I think we'll let it slide, especially since this release is much better than the previous burn-on-demand season releases.

Unfortunately, Walmart.com is sold out, and second-party sellers online are jacking the prices up. If you want to pick up a copy, your best bet would be to check your local Walmart locations; the odds of finding a copy still on store shelves are slim, but you might get lucky. Prices on eBay are ranging anywhere from $45 and up.

The Walking Dead: The Complete Fourth Season (Blu-ray) - Walmart Exclusive Prison Key Edition

So, whilst walking through the electronics department at Walmart, I realized that season four of AMC's The Walking Dead had been released - and that Walmart had their own limited edition in both Blu-ray and DVD form. Seeing as I had completely missed out on season four during it's original broadcast, I had to pick it up, especially with the neat-o limited edition packaging.

Featuring cover art by Alex Ross, the set is housed in a pretty solid magnetic, flip-top box made of hard cardboard. After opening the lid, you find the tri-fold Digipak sporting the same cover art as the box, and under that is the soundtrack, housed in a simple sleeve. Inside the Digipak you'll find the five Blu-ray discs, each of which bears two promo shots of the main characters, as well as the UV digital copy slip and a Walking Dead catalog. The Digipak itself sports more promo shots of the characters, as well as an episode/special features listing for each disc.

Check out some pictures of the set:

The packaging overall is top-notch, especially Ross' artwork. Also included is the album Songs of Survival Vol. 2.

The track listing is as followed:
1. Good Day Bad - Meshell Ndegeocello
2. Visions of China - The Lumineers
3. Never Going Home (Thom Alt-J Remix) - Phantogram
4. All the Young Thugs - Crooked Fingers
5. The Way I Was - Colbie Caillat
6. Escape (acoustic) - Kongos
7. Turning to Stone - Godsmack
8. The Light - Alela Diane

Overall, I really like the set. Is it as cool as the regular limited edition with the statue? No, but it is pretty classy (and roughly $35 cheaper). It's also a heck of a lot better than the usual standard Blu-ray case the standard edition comes in. The show itself has been pretty standout so far (the first three seasons, at least, not counting some slow bits in season two), so I can't wait to bite into season four.
