I've finally been making my way through this show. The Blu-rays are plagued with banding, especially in the later seasons. I assume these are the same transfers though.

Probably won't have Vince Gilligan's liner notes talking about the show either since he specifically references the barrel packaging too.
I'm happy with my barrel too. Plus, I also have a Sony Visa with points on it and I was able to redeem the points I had to essentially get my barrel for free. So it was win-win for me.

Anyways, I figured something like this would come along at some point. Eventually when it drops in price I'll probably pick it up.

Cool idea but I'm really not into the style of his artwork. I just looked at the posters shown in the link but none of them are anything I'd really want to put up personally. I would like a nice print from the show at some point though. The only one I sort of don't mind is the one from Blood Money.

Since this thread was bumped anyways, the pre order link for the new box set is up on Amazon. Hopefully it drops from $208 that it's listed for now. Still no release date yet. I'm still waiting on the final season to drop in price so I can finish up my set and start watching the show.

New packaging for those who hated or refused to purchase the previous one.
Despite this, I have absolutely no regrets purchasing the barrel.

Should I get this on sale at Barnes and Noble now, or should I wait for a cheaper price sometime during the year or so? I've never seen an episode and this series looks excellent.

It's my all-time favorite drama, but given the acclaim I think most people would agree it's the best blind-buy TV series you could purchase and not regret.
You can always stream the show to sample it on Netflix if you have that.

I don't have my set nearby, but I don't think it has this:
“Better Call Saul” matchbook 4GB flash drive
Isn't that kind of a "fuck you" to people who bought the original set? In a way? Sorta? Nah?

That Bob Dylan complete Albums Collection thing had a flash drive, and I think so did one of the anniversary versions of Wizard of Oz. Is it a new trend or something?

The Dylan box didn't have one. That was just an alternative to the CD box. It was a USB shaped like a harmonica and it had digital files for all the albums on it, but it was a separate item. There was a Beatles one shaped like an apple too, and also one made for Radiohead's first 6 albums. A couple disc-based box sets that have actually included USB devices as extras are Shout Factory's GI Joe box and that Danny Elfman/Tim Burton 25th Anniversary box which had the same content on both CD and USB.
I'm sure this one will have some kind of Better Call Saul video or even a web link on it that will promote the new show. That way they can use the same barrel packaging, it would be easier to somehow attach a USB stick to the packaging than it would be to reconfigure the whole thing to include another disc.
