 The two box set designs: Homer's head (new) and Homer looking through a magnifying glass (traditional)
The Season 6 DVD set caused uproar among the Internet community when images of a new style
of box were released (below left). Fans were distraught that the set would not "fit in" with the other sets on their shelves.
After realizing what a bad move this was, Fox included an option for American fans who bought the box to send of for an alternate
box (in-keeping with the traditional style) at an extra cost. UK and Australian fans, however, were given the option of choosing
the traditional box (below right) from the start. The "Homer's head" packaging was sold as "limited edition" with a production
of 50,000.
