I haven't bought the BD set but I have seen the 'artwork' and it's truly dreadful and certainly relegates many of the OT characters to a seemingly 'less important' status than a lot of the insignificant characters from the prequels. It's yet another feeble attempt by Lucas to foist the prequels on everybody and to exagerrate their importance.
It's mind-boggling that a film series that started out with such beautiful and iconic artwork (McQuarrie's production paintings and the classic Hildebrandt poster art) has degenerated to images that (as someone said elsewhere on the boards) look like they were painted by the same guy who illustrates those religious pamphlets.
Relegating the OT characters to a remote corner of the rather shitty 'collage' is yet another example of Lucas' apparent resentment of the OOT. The guy has lost it.
I pity the people who go along with (and in some cases even approve of) this cavalier and vindictive attitude to the original films.
I will never buy the BD set in its current incarnation.
