This is clearly a picture of next weeks upcoming "Edward Scissorhands", yet the specs are for the original. Has anyone ever encountered the same issue with the images not representing the actual item, and were able to get the newer release for the sale price?

The reason for having the same specs as the original release is that they simply recycle the disc on this 'new' version, so I heard.

I'd personally go with this Collectible Tin Anniversary Edition release (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000AV2GDS/103-9637593-7984647?v=glance&n=130)

This was already on the shelf at FYE for $9.99. I was surprised to find it was the SAME EXACT DVD that was previously released hidden behind a pretty, new slipcover.

As a matter of fact, had I removed all the slip covers customers would have never know it was a new release since what I uncovered looks exactly like what's been on the shelf for years (which looks like the pic below):

I had sold my 10th Ann. edition in anticipation of something, well, new. Oh well, guess them's the breaks.

I actually saw this on the shelf at the Chelsea Best Buy in NYC about a month ago. I think it was $9.99 there.

Yeah, this was discussed a couple of months back:

There's no change to the disc, just the packaging.

closed thread because as pointed out, it's just a re-release..nothing new..just new packaging..
