Halloween 4 and 5 were the only ones released in a LE tin.

Let Sleeping Corpses Lie
Two Lane Blacktop
Evil Dead 2
Maniac

I think that's everything

Don't forget the "Two-Lane Blacktop" tin with car keys and pressbook. There's still a few floating around at the B&Ms.

The only tins I don't have are Evil Dead II and Candy. :( It also looks like I just missed finding the Dario Argento 2 movie sets, as they are no longer available online.

Can't help you with 'Evil Dead II', but I've seen 'Candy' on E-bay quite a bit at really reasonable prices (with the tin, I mean).

I'm really torn, 'cause I'm a big Terry Southern fan, and I think that was his funniest book, but I hear so much bad stuff about the movie that I'm not sure I want to see it. But then I see the tin of it for like ten bucks on E-bay and I get tempted...

As for 'Evil Dead II', it's nice (my roommate has it), but it's always a bit pricey on e-bay.

If I remember correctly there are two different tins released for Candy.

I have seen a white one that looks like birth-control pills, and a pink one that looks more like a box of candy.

I also wanted to add that there are some Hammer double features from Anchor Bay that are labeled as "Limited Editions." They aren't in tins, and I don't believe they are numbered, though.

Heathers?
 
Ok I know this is a little off topic but I own the Heathers Tin but I have seen dvd covers of the diffrent characters(kinda like the res dogs only with the diffrent heathers) on dvdaficionado are they Limited edition cuz I have never seem them in stores?

"Why do I collect these damm anchor bay discs?.. Because your an idiot .... Oh yeah right" ;)
