When I got home, I opened the set, finding, to my pleasant surprise, a 4 disc set complete with a fairly lengthy book. I don't want to review the "movies" included in this set, but just so you all know, the discs discuss the history of flight in a very textbook manner. Watching the film, I almost felt as if it was the sort of film you see in school in your History class.

Enough of that however, let's get to the case itself!

The case is obviously metal, with the title, "A Century of Flight - 100 Years of Aviation" embossed on the front. Also embossed is the full color SR-71 blackbird and the globe symbol which is attached to the title of the movie.

All 6 sides of the tin are printed in full color. The tin is a little bit wider and taller than a standard dvd case, but is much deeper, since it contains the 4 disc folder and the included booklet.

A nice touch are the raised bumps that surround the cover. These mimic the raised steel rivets that are present on early metal skinned aircraft. A great extra element of design that really makes you pick up the box and touch it. The hinge mechanism is a bit loose, but does it's job and lets you open and snap close the box with ease.

Although this all sounds wonderful, there is one issue with the tin. It's light. Simply put, it's not a dense, heavy metal. This won't effect the longetivity of the box, but it does make it feel cheap. A heavier gauge metal would have really boosted the quality of the build.
