Hi all! I'm new here so let me start by saying HELLO!

It's that time of year again and I'm finally going to sit down and enjoy the Holiday Special with a few friends, but I want to make sure that the version I have is the BEST version. So far I've tracked down 3 separate versions and was hoping someone could help me decide which is the best.

The first version I have appears to be the Angrysun BLAK0001 KCMO version. Here's a screenshot: http://cl.ly/CDAp 

I've had this one for a while now.

The second is the first of what was labelled as KCCI/BLAK0019. It is an ISO file, containing no DVD_ROM content and it's menu looks something like this http://cl.ly/CE1x

The quality is definitely higher than the KCMO version. However what's puzzling is despite the ISO being titled BLAK0019_KCCI_HO nowhere on this version does it seem to have any of the bonuses listed elsewhere.

Which is why I turn to the THIRD disc I have labelled "BLAK0019 - The Holiday Special - KCCI - Angrysun" which sports a menu that looks like this: http://cl.ly/CDJP has an NFO and all the DVD-ROM Content.

Now it's my understanding there is also BLAK0054 which I would also be interested in tracking down if only for the commercials (though it's my understanding the KCCI is still a better transfer). 

I guess my question is: is that KCCI Blak0019 Edition (with all the bonus features and DVD ROM content) the definitive version of this "masterpiece" or should I be hunting down another version?

You all seem to be the experts and I want to make sure my first COMPLETE SWHS experience (I've watched bits and pieces over the years) is the best it can be.
