2016 Snow White Home Video - Signature Edition Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital HD

The Signature Collection is the new home video series from Disney, and it starts with Snow White. A digital version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was released on January 19th, with the Blu-ray/DVD/Digital HD combo pack hitting stores on February 2nd. Retail $24.95.

Comes in a Blu-ray style case in shrinkwrap. The cover artwork re-uses the Snow White 'apple trance' from the 2001 Platinum Edition but with the addition of the Evil Queen.




The case is housed in a paperboard slipcase



The DVD and Blu-ray discs.



Also inside the case is a slip of paper with the DisneyMoviesAnywhere code number that enables the download of the Digital HD file. (You have until February 2, 2018 to complete the download, after which, the code is subject to change.)

  1. I'm so furious with Disney next year will be the 80th Anniversary and an ideal hook upon which to hang the Ultimate Deluxe Blu Ray edition of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and yet they have released this half hearted single disc Blu Ray!

    1. From our earlier conversations Wobble, I perceived you were hoping for more in the way of extras, particularly in regards to the deleted Witch scenes. When I saw they had left these out, I knew you weren't going to be happy about it.
