In an early announcement to retailers, Walt Disney Home Entertainment has revealed that they will provide fans with multiple options for the upcoming Platinum Edition Blu-ray release of '
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs', which is due to hit store shelves on October 6th, seven weeks before the DVD release.
The standard Blu-ray release, which can be seen/pre-ordered
here, features Blu-ray packaging, and features the Witch holding the poisoned apple.
There will also be a '
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (DVD Packaging) which will have the same discs, but in a DVD case featuring Snow White on the cover. This version is obviously to appease DVD fans who don't want to adapt to the new, smaller form of Blu-ray disc cases.
For collectors, there will be three options. The first, and least expensive at an MSRP of $60, is the '
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Collectors Book Set)' which will feature a book along with the Blu-ray release. The second is '
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Dwarf Plush Gift Set)' at an MSRP of $80. This set will feature the Blu-ray release along with a collectible plush of one of the dwarfs. And finally, at a MSRP of $250, is the '
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Limited Edition Collector's Set)'. While final details about what will be included in that set are yet to be finalized, you can expect some extra special.
All five releases will features the film on both Blu-ray and DVD so that it can be watched in your home theater and on the go in your car without having to buy to separate releases.
We'll have more details as they become available.
