The albums are presented together in a simple slipcase. Each individual album comes in its own hardcover book, filled with exclusive essays telling the stories behind the music and original artworks. To create a coherent overall look to the books in the collection, new illustrations celebrating Disney’s rich heritage have also been commissioned, provided by Lorelay Bove, a visual development artist at Walt Disney Annimation Studios who was recently nominated in Variety magazine’s ‘10 Animators to Watch’ list.

[…] up a couple of those Disney Legacy editions (Toy Story and Mary Poppins) which form part of the Legacy Collection box set and Neko Case‘s Blacklisted on orange […]
Now that all these titles have long been individually released, and everyone has already picked his choice, now they are asking € 360 for the box set? – Honestly I don’t know why SDE even bothers with things like this. This is a commercial, it’s got nothing to do with music.
I really wish SDE would spend more time reviewing the music rather than advertising for Amazon…
No love for the excellent score for “20,000 Leagues Under The Sea?!?”
No Jungle Book… mmmh
Agree… Where is Jungle Book?
I am sure I read somewhere that Disney don’t own the rights to the Jungle Book soundtrack..
Utter crap. I wouldn’t take a copy if they were handing them out for free!
In my opinion, this set would have been much more interesting if aladdin and beauty and the beast were included
Be nice if they sold the empty box for those of us that already purchased the individual releases…
Hardly the most overpriced release when compared to the Dylan and Roger Waters superdeluxe boxes. However I won’t be buying it!
The releases are available individually and the the box doesn’t look that impressive, so it would be simpler to cherry pick the ones you want, based on previously unreleased material or what you think is the best soundtrack.
looks fab but , oh dear the price!!! USA looks the cheapest but then I suppose you get hit by the customs and import duty so it works out not such a bargain
OK, this one may win the prize of most over-priced release of the year to me ;)
My thoughts too!
Interesting but can’t afford at this price.
