Default Iron Man, Amazon used?

Just got my Iron Man from amazon today and when I opened the box, the case had a partial security sticker under the full security sticker. I'm wondering if Paramount brought back all the discs and re-used the cases? Anyone else have this on their case?

It's only half the sticker on the backe of the case but I saw it right away. The disc is blue and the extra's disc is gray.

A member on DVD Talk posted pictures of the Target limited edition version and disc 1 was blue, disc 2 was gray.

i got the target version with mask case. No security stickers. But the shrink wrap had a different UPC code on it that covered up the orginal one on the artwork inside the case. In addition my disk 1, which was blue and not gray like disc 2, had a fingerprint on it. Which leads me to believe either paramount or target switched the discs and used the orginal cases. Why not, they would be wasting money if they jsut threw away the orignal cases which have nothing wrong with them.

My tracking from Amazon says out for delivery. I'll post late tonight when I get off work whether or not I have an extra security sticker.

My Iron Man blu runs perfectly on 3.9 firmware, you might have a bad disc.

Yeah, I had the same thing here, partial security sticker under a full one.
I didn't think too much of it though, just thought it had to do with the recall.

Oh! And I got a different case then the one pictured in Deads3t post. I got one of those Sony/Disney cases with the molded BD logo and the tab on the side. I love those cases, now I don't have to replace it
I was actually surprised at that, Paramount usually uses the 12mm thick cases like Warner.

They were trying to prevent delays, and this was the best method to prevent that. All the ones I got have double stickers as well
