Bad lighting+crappy camera = Bad Picture

Image

That's my small, but getting larger by the week collection. It might not be much but being a bargin hunter I rarely buy anything new so all but 8 of those movies seen came from pawn shops/thrift stores and all cost 10 bucks or less (Snow White was the cheapest at only $4.99).

Sorry, I all of mine are in boxes. I organized the Disney ones, but in the second picture, you see a couple cartoon/non-disney dvds.

I can't post a photo of my entire collection, since I don't have a cabinet to display them in. And my collection is pretty small anyway. However, for my birthday this May, my mom and dad gave me a tremendous gift - some very old Disney VHS tapes still sealed in shrink-wrap! I was so shocked! Here's the photo of what they gave me. (the green flecks that appear to be floating on top of the videos are actually price stickers clinging to shrink wrap)

Ducktales and B&TB were no longer in shrink wrap (opened), so I can watch those - the rest I won't open, since it ruins their value.

Image

L to R:
Ducktales, the Movie, The Little Mermaid, Peter Pan, The Jungle Book, Cinderella, B&TB, Pete's Dragon, Robin Hood, 101 Dalmations, the Rescuers Down Under, Fantasia (the original masterpiece version - says final release), and the Great Mouse Detective.

Image

To the right in this second photo is some of my Walt Disney Treasures collection (the rest are kept in a Treasure Chest in the dining room!). I don't have them all (missing most of the first 3 waves) but what I do have, takes up a lot of space.

Hey darth_deetoo! Glad to see you back here at UD. You already know I love your collection :)

So which Armani is next for you? I just got the "Ariel in Love" Armani, it's truly gorgeous in person.

THREAD HIJACK

Blimey Deetoo, you've bought enough Blu-Ray discs already! How do you feel about the UK Pirates discs missing the commentaries (despite the sticker advertising the run-time of the extras still obviously counting their runtimes)?

END THREAD HIJACK
Most of my Blu-ray collection some of my UK discs aren't on their database

Was a bit miffed to be honest when I realised we'd been short changed.

I've really thrown myself in to High Definition DVD, so much so, that aside from my Disney Animated stuff, Disney Treasures and Star Wars, Indy and Superman, I've sold, or put up for sale all my DVD's.

I've also just decided to get a HD-DVD player, so I'm hedging my bets with the format war. There are quite a few titles out there now on HD-DVD that I'd like, particularly Universal one's - but I'll probably go Blu Ray if they're released in both formats. I do think Blu Ray will win eventually.

I think I'll probably go for Cinderella next in the Armani's, in her ballgown. I love the Ariel in Love one though and the Sleeping Beauty. Have you seen the new Alice one, that's gorgeous too. I can't see myself getting another Armani before next year though. I'm back to DLRP in September, and planning another trip in March - aiming to get to DLRP every 6 months now.

I like your avatar Merboy, I have the Belle Fan Club pin - very appropriate for me. :)

That is an incredible collection Darth_Deeto - I love the statue close ups of Ariel.

High-jack comment:

So Darth - you are selling off all your DVDs (except for the Disney Treasures/Animation?) Wow, that is a commitment.... I guess the question is how much of your current DVD collection is currently available on hi-def, or you figure eventually all those DVDs will be replaced by Hi-def. But it is a big gamble at this point to choose one format over the other, isn't it? (I guess we should go back over to the blue-ray thread for this one!) IF you think Blu-Ray is going to win, why buy on HD? You will be stuck with having spent all that $$ on HD versions and also the HD player - what are your thoughts on this?

I'm quite happy waiting for a lot of stuff to arrive on the HD formats. The reason I'm going to buy into HD DVD, is there is a lot of Universal stuff specifically, and Warner which is still not on Blu Ray, which I would like. Universal are being extremely stubborn, and I actually think there's a possibility still that both formats may exist side by side, particularly once more combo players appear on the market. I can also see a lot of people buying into HD because of the low cost of the players, and buying into Blu Ray with the PS3, thereby putting both formats into a lot of homes. Once past the inital hardware cost, I don't really have a problem in two distinct formats. I think Blu Ray has the edge at the moment with studio support, but I think HD-DVD is far from dead just yet.

Actually not quite selling everything on DVD. I'm hanging onto Doctor Who, Star Wars and Indiana Jones too. Those, and the DAC's, I can't do without. Doctor Who would not benefit from being on HD. The others will be a long wait on either format.

Just do a search for Disney Armani and you'll find various sellers on the web. But be prepared for a big price tag, Armani figurine's aren't cheap.

Got a new snowglobe and pin today:-

That's why I haven't bought another one yet. A lot of places will let you do them on a layaway plan over about 4 months.

I bought my Belle and Ariel outright, on Ebay.

I think Belle cost me around $400, and Ariel cost me around $300, although I'm not sure now.

Sleeping Beauty was $750, and I paid for her over 4 months.
