I Love The 80's Missing Titles

Does anyone here have any familiarity with Paramount's I Love The 80's series from 2008/09? I recently started buying these and have hit the wall regarding three titles. Several dealers on ebay show listings with stock photos for a King David I Love The 80's release, but the upc number is the same as that for the regular one. Also, supposedly there were to be releases for We're No Angels and The Escape Artist, but I have found out nothing about them beyond the initial announcement. My guess is that these titles, for whatever reason, were never actually released, but I wouldn't mind having that confirmed. If anyone has any information about these titles, it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: I Love The 80's Missing Titles

Thanks Andicus for the above reference. With the exchange rate, their price came to about $27.50 US$. I went to check out, primarily to see how much the shipping cost would be, but I couldn't figure out the proper configuration for the obligatory telephone number in order to advance. I may, however, have found a used copy through a marketplace seller on Amazon. I'm waiting on a response from him for verification. I'm still at a loss regarding King David (stock photos only) and We're No Angels (nothing), although there are listings of I Love The 80's case covers for those two titles on a site called "customaniacs." It's strange. When this series of rereleases originally came out, I dismissed them as unbelievably gaudy and didn't want them. Ten-plus years later, I put them in bright yellow cases and want to get them all. Ah, collectors.

I did a deep dive awhile back and put together this list on Letterboxd. It may be incomplete. If anyone catches something I missed, please let me know so I can update it!

I have a friend who works at Paramount and am curious if she can get me any swag.
