Shrek OBCR Packaging & Glitch(?)

Before you even read the rest of this post, please note that this is somewhat like a review on the packaging of the CD with a question at the end.

Hey guys- first of all, I'm sorry that I did not post this on my original Shrek OBCR thread. Just can't seem to find it.

But anywho, I finally got my hands on the CD and was at first disappointed in the fact that it is a cardboard case, but it's slowly growing on me, though I'd still rather have a jewel-case.

For me, presentation means a lot. So this actual packaging let me down a bit. A big thing for me on this one is that there are simple Photoshop errors.
(Look at Shrek's head at the back of the lyrics booklet. The background is much more defined and has richer color as compared to the rest of the picture. It almost looks as if somebody dusted off just his head.)

As well as the errors, the background on the lyrics page is quite pixelated.


On the UP side of the CD, though the inside of the packaging may be a bit bland, I thought the fairy-tale characters was quite cute.
Also, I just realized that in the "Freak Flag" shot, some of the swings are in there (or performers/characters that aren't usually in the number)


Now, packaging aside, on Track 9, Who I'd Be (favorite song in the show, btw) a fraction of the first note is cut off. Is it like this on all of the CD's? iTunes? Or is it just my CD that has a possible glitch?

Ok, good, it's not just me... But that still kinda makes me upset!

I know, you would think they would check that out first?

I don't know why, but I had the strange urge to break down and buy it tonight... and so the outside may not be that great, but it looks really good when you fold it all out and see all the characters. And, I don't mind that its not a jewel case, in fact, I don't like them sometimes because I like the jewel cases to be perfect but sometimes they get cracks and then I don't feel like replacing them, but its not THAT bad

I got some stickers with my booklet which were unnecessary. And my gate-fold tore a little when I tried to get the booklet out.

It's not *bad* packaging, but I would have preferred a jewel box also.

I rather liked the packaging...and the stickers. I thought they were a cute touch.

Does anybody have a clue as to why the premier had no cut off?

"And Pianolin- I miss your West Side Story avatars..."
Thanks! I might switch back to the one of me soon, but I mean, Allison Case is WAY more adorable than I will ever be! Just look at her!

Haha well, she IS adorable.
But you should do a series of photos and post one each week. I can see it now- each pic will feature you in a different place with your WWS hat.

Whaat?? That's really upsetting! I hope you get it as soon as it is re-released! But on the brighter side, there's this REALLY cool and nice-looking baseball hat here- http://westsidestorygoods.com/view/goods/like/apparel
You can do spring/summer shots in this one and fall/winter shots in the beanie.
For some reason, you come off as the kind of person that's into that stuff. lol I may be wrong, but I was just thinking that it would be funny to see your pic change from week to week.

Hair actually has some REALLY cool stuff-

Haha you are too funny!

What? Lucky! I guess they had an oopsie, because it was supposed to come with the Shrek/Fiona/Donkey/Farquaad sheet of stickers and a sheet the same size with all of the ringtones on it... You can now consider your CD a unique edition!! **yay!** lol
