Are there 2 different releases of the DVD?

Link to back cover

I got the one without the red banner on top, haven't opened it yet. Does that mean mine doesn't have the Christmas Caper penguin short?

I checked the UPC and they appear to be identical though.

Thanks!

It is a re-release just in time for Christmas. Both, this and the old release contain the penguin short. It's just Dreamworks trying to confuse people for no reason.

This is what I have, it's got a different cover to the one I linked to. Would mine still have the Christmas Caper short except that it's not listed on both the front and back cover art?
