Marvel’s Phase One Box Set Gets An Updated Release Date, Plus Extra Content!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Better late than never right?

EW today released some new info regarding the highly anticipated Phase One box set. The fantastic looking bundle was originally set to release back in September, but was delayed due to a lawsuit over the case design.

We now have a new release date for the 10-disc set (featuring a slightly different looking briefcase), and while it’s still months away, I can’t help but get excited. New pre-orders are set to start later today, while the set will be available on April 2nd (just 133 more days).

The set will also include additional content that would not have been there had it hit shelves on time including never before seen clips, and a Phase Two preview featuring “footage, concept art, and a few new surprises.”

I’m in. How about you?

‘The Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase One: Avengers Assembled’ Set Delayed

by Shawn Madden

Well, it appears that the lawsuit surrounding The Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase One: Avengers Assembled Blu-ray box set has caused the release to be delayed until spring 2013. The collection was previously scheduled for release on September 25, 2012 and no specific date has been announced on when it will be actually released.

German luggage manufacturer Rimowa GmbH is claiming that their Topas attaché case, used by Nick Fury in the movie was reproduced outside of the terms of their agreement with the studio. They’re currently suing for trademark infringement, trademark dilution, unfair competition, and basically just saying essentially that Marvel is counterfeiting their case. he set, which includes a glowing replica of the Tesseract, is now being redesigned.

What will happen to the discarded plastic briefcases and what the new version of the set will look like is currently also unknown. Well, I know some people that are about to punch a hole in their wall.
