Costco's Schwarzenegger Collection -- anamorphic?
Costco has a boxset of Commando/True Lies/Predator for $8.99.
The box says widescreen for all three but does not say anything about being anamorphic. I know the individual release are not, so I assumed these weren't either...
BUT
In a used CD/DVD store I just saw a similar Schwarzenegger collection with the same 3 movies, but different packaging artwork. This one's artwork (bottom of box) specifically said all three ARE anamrphic.
Any ideas?

Despite Fox's blatant false advertising on the packaging, they are not anamorphic. I started a thread recently about the same set and was informed about the BS packaging. Sucks for the peple who got jipped by Fox on this set. Something should really be done about stuff like this. I was half tempted to buy it after the fact just so I could return it.

Slightly off topic but Universal is not so much of a liar and the Arnold Schwarzenegger DVD Comedy Favorites Collection coming out in a month or so WILL have all three films in anamorphic widescreen for the first time.
