No.

If you look at dvdcompare all the other regions listed there are 4:3.
I'm waiting on a widescreen release for Kindergarden Cop.

Kindergarden Cop is in widescreen in Scandinavia. Dunno if it's anamorphic though. Doesn't seem like it.

Hi Yocke,

Do you how much its selling for? Is there an online shop that ships to the US? If you have an extra copy, perhaps someting on my trade thread interests you?

Thanks

You can order it here:
http://www.dvd.se/asp/base.asp?Page=...ikelnr=5500419

Shipping is 25 SEK internationally. I guess they ship to the US, since they have shipping prices listed for Sweden, Norway, other countries within the EU, and then countries outside the EU.

Also, I noticed that at least Danish webstores have not got this release yet. Dunno why, but it seems its a Sweden exclusive for now.

If you need any more help navigating the site or whatnot, just ask.

Yocke,

One question...

If my Swedish Kronor conversion is right, the total price [shipping included] to the US would be around $20, right..?

Thanks!

Yes. $19,23 according to the exchange website I use, but it might be a dollar or so more with the bank you're with.

Hmm. I'm actually not sure about Twins. That's supposed to be OOP. Another company distributed Universals titles here in Sweden before, and now Universal are taking over, and replacing all the old discs with the old company logo with their own. The Twins dvd must be very new, because all shops doesn't have it yet. I'll mail them and ask.

Thanks Yocke.

Depending on what you find out, I just may be placing an order for a couple of discs from dvd.se.
