Was planning to upgrade this from my HD DVD set, but then I decided to wait until it gets a new remaster- one that ditches the new Teal and Orange grading RS has been imposing on all his (best) catalog the last few years.
Will probably take at least until the 40th anniversary, but the HD DVD will suffice till then I suppose.

I found a new copy of the 5 disc set for $32 today and jumped all over it. I was a bit nerveous on the drive home about getting one with the mislabled disc 1. Luckily everything is great.

Further technical specifications are unknown, though the Blu-ray does contain a number of bonus supplements, such as:

Disc 1: Final Cut
Disc 2: 1993 Director's Cut, 1982 Theatrical Cuts, Rare Workprint
Disc 3: Bonus Materials
Disc 4: DVD
Based upon those specs, I don't think we'll be getting a re-encode of the transfers.

Disappointing that the Dangerous Days documentary will still be SD, according to Bill Hunt.

I haven't checked on this thread in a looong while. Fantastic news, I'm more than happy to be wrong if this is the result.
I kinda Love/Hate the cover, anyone else?

The new cover sucks
Glad I got the original blu-ray release though don't understand why the 30th anniversary edition is a blu-ray/DVD combo

I love that new cover, but it has a feel like its fan-made art. I would have loved seeing the cover be the eye from the very beginning of the movie. Sucks Dangerous Days will remain in SD though.

Also my favorite (and a favorite of many real life acquaintances). This is why I want a stellar effort put into the 30th Anniv. Blu. If any film deserves to look its best, it is this as a definitive one!
The atmosphere and scenery are characters in the movie!

I don't care, I'm not bothered the way most people are by cases that aren't regular blu ray cases. Probably will be a regular case in that box similar to that Muppets lunch box, box from Best Buy earlier this year.

Hell yea.....
And for everybody else, it's not coming out for a 30th anniversary so you can stop holding your breath. It's been confirmed by many, including Cliff on Blu-ray.com, who is an industry insider and has an excellent track record for information on the forums over there. Rights issues have stalled all sales of this thing, including theatrical distribution. Even confirmed by Arclight Cinemas and Aint it Cool News who weren't able to get prints for exhibition.

The set sure does carry a different toy vehicle.
The one I got with the 5 disc Attache Case Blu Ray Edition came with a Blue Color Vehicle

Mainly I was wondering whether or not it had the same disc content as the 5 disc set with the two DVDs now on a single blu-ray.
Nice looking set though!

AICN has confirmed discs one and two (Final Cut and US Theatrical, International Theatrical, and "Director's Cut" seamlessly branched) are the same single-layered discs that were created for the original five disc set.
The Workprint Cut is now on a dual-layered disc with all of the DVD bonus material added.

Is there anything new on this release bonus features wise? Anything dropped from the 5-Disc Complete Collector's Edition?
