New seasonal cover art for Deadpool (1 Viewer)

[Jake Lipson]

It appears that Fox has cleverly repackaged Deadpool with seasonal box art.

I assume from the lack of clarification to the contrary that it is probably the same exact disc as before, only with new artwork. I hope it is actually on the case and not just a slipcover. I never got this earlier this year and would certainly consider it with the new artwork, which I think is hilarious, especially if it is a Black Friday title. Unfortunately, there doesn't sen to be a way to order it online via any other store besides overpriced Fox Connect and guarantee that you get the Christmas packaging, so I guess you've got to hunt in stores.

Has anyone seen this yet? If so, can you confirm whether the new artwork is actually for the Blu-ray case itself, or just a slipcover? My interest in looking for it specifically is much less if it is only a slipcover (although I want to get the film itself pretty soon anyway.)

Perhaps it will be a popular discount Black Friday title?

Based upon the previous ones they've done, if it's not a slipcover it is just a piece of printed chipboard placed on top of the old art sometimes they use something like rubber cement or wax on top of the case plastic that can be removed carefully with little effecting the original cover art ... sometimes stores (eg Wal*Mar)t will have a display with similar themed titles/artwork at a discount and this can be a good way to pick those titles up ...
