They are nice, but the TR47 ones are inaccurate. TR47's set does not feature commentary by anyone, nor does it have menus or production notes.

Have you thought of doing a triple or quad disc version? You know, for the whole set in one case?

thedalek & sweyland: Whoops! Fixed it, thanks for pointing that out

thedalek: I'm toying with the idea of making my own hard paper box to put the keep-cases in, like the one in the official Indiana Jones set. Should be possible... If it's not though, I might do one for a quad keep-case instead.

BTW, I agree on the official DVD covers, they're awful. Looks like they're made by some kid who's just learning Photoshop having a field-day - with the glows and the lens-flares etc.

Hey Cerebro. These are great covers. I'm definitely going to print these out. I haven't decided which set I am going to use though.

The only thing I noticed about them, was that in your description for the featurette "How the Walkers Walk", the word "create" is mssing the "e" on the end. I think this is on both of the supplemental covers (though I only downloaded the anamorphic versions.) Anyway, it's just a quick fix. Usually on my covers, I have about 50 typos.

I've seen some of these before, but...

Does anyone have any Prequel DVD covers using the original poster art?

Can't believe this is the official artwork - it look so childish!! Agree that that lens flare looks very tacky indeed! What's happening to George Lucas these days? Presumably he OK'd these?! Doh! I was really hoping for some cardboard slip boxes (like UK edition of Fight Club) with the original theatrical posters reproduced in every detail. Oh well..... :-(

I was wondering if anyone would be willing to produce some REALLY retro 70's style (i.e. rounded corners galore!!) original trilogy dvd covers? I know the THX faces edition is (currently!) the best way to experience the non-SE trilogy, but even closer to the version we all would have seen at the cinema were the widescreen Fox LD releases in 1989. Fair enough there's loads of dirt and stuff on the print.. but in a way I kind of like that! This is how I remember it at the cinema - dust specs and all! Call me strange, but I'd rather have the dust and scratches but with a pin sharp picture, rather than the THX versions with so much digital dirt concealment that the image loses it's clarity, and you get that weird digital smearing effect on some fast moving objects - yuck!! Also the 1989 LD version has the original 70mm soundtracks (plus C3PO's line of dialogue which was missing from the THX versions). Star Wars on the faces edition LD's was totally remixed by Ben Burtt, with a few new sound effects added in that certainly weren't there when we all saw it in the cinema! The other two films were just cleaned up, but not remixed.

Once my Laserdisc player has been given a proper service, and calibrated up to the highest standards by a professional, then I'll be archiving these original editions onto DVD-r's... I'll keep you posted! It would be grand to have some retro DVD covers to go with this set though - the funkier the better!!!

The challange has been set - so put on yer flares, cue up yer Star Wars Meco LP and get designing folks!!

P.S. Cerbero - awsome covers mate!!!

Just uploaded some new packs with the spelling error that Jashun44 pointed out fixed, thanks for that

One other nitpick, they have somethign saying "fullscreen version" at the bottom.

I just blacked that part out of mine on paint. But I thought you'd like to know.

On the TR47 set I've put "Fullscreen Version 4:3", and on the Anamorphic set I've put "Widescreen Version 16:9", so it's supposed to be that way. Maybe a misuse of terminology... Did anyone else react to it?

^^^It's not fullscreen.

But it's made for 4:3 TVs because it isn't anamorphic.

Don't worry though, it's widescreen.

jimbo: We're talking about the LD rips of the original versions, not the official DVD set

Perhaps if I changed it to "Widescreen Version 4:3"? Since the actual picture is 4:3, but the movie is 2.35:1... What do you think?
