Get in Quick! June 5, 2008

This is definitely the edition of the Jungle Book DVD to buy! The DVDs themselves are the same as in the standard 40th anniversary edition and there are many reviews covering that aspect of this set under that items Amazon listing. So I won't cover that part in detail I'll just say that it is a five star DVD production in its own right!

This limited edition collector's item won't be around forever so get in quick! At the time of writing there is only a couple of pounds difference in price between this and the standard edition - a small price for collectors to pay.

This set comes in a book-shaped box containing the DVDs themselves and the bonus book. The book is about the same size as a DVD box and tells the Jungle Book story in illustrations from the film. Some reviewers may have preferred a copy of the Jungle Book itself but it is this charming little book is what actually makes this set collectable! It is only available as a part of this package.

For those who want a copy of the book of the Jungle Book Amazon have them starting from about 1.50 - so it won't break the bank to have both! If you know what to expect you won't be disappointed, and you won't be disappointed with this edition.

Collectors Item November 7, 2007

This set is really well presented and thoroughly worth the extra few pounds. The photo book is a real collectors piece and people who love the film will appreciate the enhanced picture quality of the fim which is what this book is showcasing. The Disney Deluxe Editions are like goldust to get hold of once they go out of print (Which is usually only after a few months) so if your unsure, buy it now while the price is still very reasonable. The film itself is exceptional and is certainly one of the best to come out of the Disney Animation Studios. It's been fully restored and remastered and looks gorgeous. Packed full of features, I just can't praise this set highly enough.

Good film shame about the book November 7, 2007

Be warned the so called 'book' which comes with the deluxe edition is simple 96 pages of pictures from the film, what a disapointment.

That said the film is still worth it and the special box does look very nice on the shelf.
