The Avengers Blu-Ray goes on sale September 25th and one deluxe edition was supposed to come packaged with the briefcase from the movie holding a cosmic cube.
However, Disney never got permission from the German maker of the actual briefcase, with the luggage company, Rimowa, filing a trademark lawsuit.
While Disney did have permission for the movie, they did not for the plastic Blu-Ray edition.
Amazon has pulled the "Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One Avengers Assembled 10-Disc Collectors Set" from their pre-orders with a notice the product is under review.
Disney/Buena Vista has also pulled the briefcase image from their site and replaced it with a new one.
Depending how ticked off Rimowa might be, maybe we'll still get the briefcase if Disney floats over enough cash.

This better get handled before the release date :(
