Star Wars ,The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi : 3 pan&scan vhs-tapes taped from dutch television around 1989.

The "Jedi" vhs got mangled by my vcr last saturday (nov. 11th) prompting me to buy the 2006 Limited Edition. ( I had to cut the tape in two to get the video-cassette out of my vcr.)

Star Wars ,The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi : 3 non-anamorphic laserdisc-master sourced dvd's released as bonus discs to the sept. 12 2006 individual release of the OT-trilogy.

SE - OT
---------
1997 widescreen 3-vhs box-set

2004 SE - OT
-----------------
2005 anamorphic widescreen 3-dvd set (the box with the classic Hildebrandt poster art)
I now also keep my GOUT-discs in this set - in paper sleeves - alongside their 2004 counterparts.

I just hate the sleeve art of the 2006 limited edition - very ugly in my opinion. The day after I had bought the limited edition discs I felt bad I had "fallen" for Lucasfilm's marketingploy "forcing" me to buy the 2004 SE's twice. (dirty feeling). This got better as soon as I discovered that a co-worker was willing to buy my new copies of the SE's from me. This co-worker has last seen a Star Wars movie in the eighties. (never seen the SE's.) She will be in for a surprise. (understatement of the month)
