Marvel Cinematic Universe 10-disc Blu-ray set delayed, that sweet Tesseract case is to blame
4ffc6e2b7f5da.jpeg

Remember that $139 Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One - Avengers Assembled Blu-ray boxed set and its S.H.I.E.L.D. case (pictured above, video after the break) with the sweet glowing Tesseract cube? Good - now forget it, at least until spring 2013. Blu-ray.com has an official statement from Disney that sadly informs us it will not make its predicted September 25th ship date, and has been pushed back. The statement does go on however, noting that buyers will receive a new briefcase with even more (unspecified -- may we suggest Tony Stark's Iron Man briefcase?) special features. It doesn't go into precisely why all this happened, but an earlier report from TheHDRoom noted a legal squbble between Marvel and Rimowa, the company that apparently created the metallic briefcase it was based on, and subsequently sued Marvel and Disney's home video arm, Buena Vista Home Entertainment for trademark infringement and the like. Whatever the cause, the set is on ice for now.

I would go with more props. If more discs better be unseen content. Books - more in depth on each character or a replica of the first original comic on each can be added to make the case worth waiting for.
 
What would you like to see MORE than originally planned?
More feature? More discs? More props?

Good idea. I think it'd be cool to have character cards autographed by the actor/actress who played that character, except each set only contains one card and you don't know which one you'll get. The only way to get all the cards would be to buy a bunch of sets to collect them all. Marvel/Disney would make more $$$ and the crazy-ass collectors would be losing more hair over stress/possible bankruptcy. :hilarious:

Holy macaroni!!! EEK!
Don't say that too loud, they could hear you and agree with that evil plan of making us go completely broke/nuts!!! This ain't a 3$ cereal box we're talking about!!! :hilarious:
 
I would also like to see more props

I just hope that Marvel will cut a deal with Rimowa, I don't see how any new briefcase will make any sense?

Was there more then one briefcase in the Avengers?
 
Message from Amazon.com

Dear Amazon.com Customer,

We're writing to let you know that the Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One-Avengers Assembled Collection will not be released by Marvel as originally expected. Instead, Marvel is planning to offer a similar collection in new packaging. The new collection will include the original titles offered with the first version of the item, and is expected to be available in the spring of 2013. To make this easy for you, we updated your order for the original collection and will ship the new collection when it becomes available. The price of the new collection will be the same as the original collection.

To show our appreciation for your understanding, we are providing you with a promo code to receive a free copy of Marvel's The Avengers (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo in Blu-ray Packaging). To be eligible, you must have placed your order between June 1, 2012 and August 28, 2012. Any cancelled orders are not eligible to receive the free copy. Codes must be redeemed by October 15, 2012.

Here is your code
 
Yeah, I was already expecting the cancellation heads up. Just got the message as well. I'm going to redeem my copy now :) Let's see what they gonna give us next US spring.
 
Yeah I redeemed my code. It should make up for getting an edited UK copy in my Steelbook, plus I will now get the extras too.
 
I say props to Amazon. I also just got the free Blu Ray email. This was in no way their fault and to had no obligation at all to offer a free blu ray to all of the people who preordered within the timeframe specified. This a real nice gesture from them.
