Disney is releasing a very expensive 100-movie Blu-ray collection

The volumes are shaped like a pentagram, one is pictured open, with sleeves on the outer edge of the displayed page, which has movie posters near each disc representing the movies. The book is also shown from the back, standing on its own with a stand that folds out like a folio case for, say, an iPad.

Disney is releasing a 100-film Blu-ray collection on November 14th called the Disney Legacy Animated Film Collection (via The Wrap). Preorders for the Walmart exclusive are available now at Walmart’s website and we regret to inform you it’s $1,499.96.

The collection includes movies from both Disney and Pixar, all crammed into three volumes of discs that span Disney’s entire feature film history from 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarves to this year’s Elemental.

In an email to The Verge, Disney publicity executive Chris Bess said there are 118 discs in all — 100 for each individual film and 18 additional discs with bonus content for Pixar films. Unfortunately, Bess also says these are HD transfers, not 4K Blu-rays. Alas.

Still, it’s impressive how little filler this package seems to have. Scrolling through the list that The Wrap published, it has every single movie I’d have wanted to see, like all of the Toy Story movies, both of The Incredibles, The Black Cauldron, Frankenweenie, and Robin Hood, but very few of the mediocre direct-to-video snoozers the company produced so many of over the years. I would say there’s no filler at all, but I’ve never seen Planes: Fire and Rescue. Maybe it’s good!

Each volume folds out into a storybook-style presentation, with pages showing poster art for the movies, their release years, and a character quote from each. The collection also comes with digital codes for each movie. (“Sorry, everyone,” you’ll say, “I can’t come out tonight because I’m claiming Disney digital copies.”)

There’s also a lithograph poster for Disney’s upcoming Wish, a numbered certificate of authenticity, and a fancy crystal Mickey Mouse ears cap. And finally, here’s the full list of movies:
