I'm open to any corrections or suggestions anyone thinks is needed.

Thank you for doing this, much appreciated.

Still, I am very confused. I had the 2011 set and swapped it for the 2015 set to get rid of the disc sleeves. I saw they had the same amount of discs and assumed the content was identical...now I'm seeing that may not be correct. It kinda looks like the only thing lost is art galleries, right?

Now I have all the individual 4K releases and the 2015 set and I'm trying to figure out if I need to keep the 2015 set or not...

I believe the set you refer to (the one with Vader on the cover?) is identical to the 2011 Saga set. The 2015 column refers to the individual releases from that year. Maybe it would help if I specified "Steelbook BD (2015)", and "The Complete Saga BD (2011/2015)"?

Star Wars Tech and Star Warriors, which says here that it only appeared on the 2020 4K of ROTS, appeared on Disc 3 of The Complete Saga.
Also, the Original Theatrical Editions weren't on the 2004 Trilogy box, they were on the 2006 Limited Edition DVDs.
A Conversation with the Masters also appeared on The Complete Saga.
Dennis Muren: How the Walkers Walk initially appeared on the Definitive Collection LaserDisc but says here that it only appeared on the 2020 4K, with a separate listing for the LaserDisc even though they're the exact same featurette.

Wondered that too (esp about 4Ks); currently, my search turned up Maleficent down to 23.90...but other examples--of comparable or bigger drops--seem scarce.

Which brings me to: Anyone have specifics on the rumored Buy 2, Get One Free sale on the stand-alone, Star Wars UHDs at Target for--I think--the coming week? Online, in-store only? When's it kick off?

Just might warrant Force Pulling the OT through the Interwebs, if that's an option.

I bought all the Iron Man 4K UHDs Steelbooks for $15 each back in December from Best Buy. Nearly all Marvel and Disney steelbook were that cheap.

And all fixed. Thanks muchly for the corrections.

Yeah, 2015 9-disc set with Vader. Kinda looks like I should keep it...?

UPDATE:

A digital flier I found for an in-store offer makes no mention of Star Wars UHDs; it also excludes "new release" movies from the deal...so the B2G1 promo I mentioned doesn't look like the Saga Sale Spectacular I was looking for. Moving along, careful not to step in Ronto Dung (those SE streets were just clogged with critters, weren't they?)


'NOTHER Update:

Hey, just like bull's-eyeing womp rats in your T-16 back home!

Buy 2, Get One Free is a thing at Target this week...and Star Wars UHDs are eligible online (though there's a question about The Rise of Skywalker). Just add 'em to your cart and it should show the discount at checkout. If something weird happens and it doesn't, something's amiss or sale's over...

Looks like the stuff from the Saga BD that didn't make it to the 4K releases are:

Concept Art Galleries
1 AotC Deleted Scene
Anatomy of a Dewback
Star Wars Spoofs
The Empire Strikes Back: SPFX
The Making of Star Wars
Various trailers

I've just added a 4K/BD (2020) column to the Collections tab noting which items from that section made it to the newest releases.

Anatomy of a Dewback is on the ANH bonus disc.

And this is why it helps to have a second set of eyes. Appreciated, thanks.

Are there any new deleted scenes in the 4k releases?

And...like I said...

There's nothing new on any of the 4k releases.

I know countless people have already commented on the packaging, but, man, it really was a pain to remove the discs. They could have at least added little half circle cutouts to facilitate disc removal. Everytime I went to remove a disc I pushed it farther in.

The biggest flaw is making the label on the outside of the box (that gives the details of the contents) so sticky. When you attempt to pull off the label it pulls on the cover of the boxset.

I ruined my copy of the James Bond collection when I attempted to remove the cover.
At least the Infinity Saga had the good sense to out the details of the boxset on the outer packaging.

I usually remove the labels, but it didn't budge when I tugged on it, so I left it on.

Sensible. I know from experience that when it is stuck tight when you right to force it it pulls off the main cover.
