Is this the first time it's been acknowledged like this?
What that it exists? Nah, they've owned up to it for years. At one of the Celebrations they used publicity stills from it on free luggage tags they were giving away.
As for a blu-ray release. That will never happen. It was shot on tape, not film. So there's no version of it that would exceed 480p.
A DVD release however...
