Yep. Same thing happened to me. I should have drained them when I got them.

Oddly enough, the Diet Pepsi ones didn't eat through the cans. All the others did.

Hmmmmmmm.....

*limit 10 per store, but it does not say that for online pick-up.

are you able to order it online via pickup tho? All of our stores still say "unavailable!"

Eagle Eye! I didn't even notice that sorry.

But yeah, the EU ones look identical apart from the age ratings. I think the Amazon.de ones should be rating free. Maybe someone else knows for sure?

So in the city of Los Angeles???????????

OK, but when will the original Star Wars be released. I mean the one without the revised dvd stuff.
I don't mind the added material in the theatrical re-release, but I draw the line at adding or changing things for the DVD.

It's the Scandinavian set. It has no age ratings anywhere, and packaging is entirely in English. German set has localized packaging.

It's rating free, though of course the text inside the booklet is German, as is the only lossless audio track. English is only half-rate DTS!
The packaging itself is not localized (except for the outer cardboard).

LOL, that was great!

Haha, I still have all three of them (they were emptied), so still in normal condition. I have Qui-Gon Jinn, Anakin and Watto

Are there any pics yet of what the individual Trilogy set look like inside?

I quite like the digistack. I admit it seems a bit cheap at first as the trays are basicly stuck together at the spine by sticky tape. But in person it feels and looks great!

So its just a piece of tape as a hinge holding them?

The main reason I was the UK set is the disk art. The US one just looks so boring. I also like that the disks are on actual trays rather than slid into slots. I do not like that the UK set is thicker and has rating logos all over the front and disks.

The only pro I see of the US set is that its thinner.

There was actually 24 different cans. So sounds like you don't have them "all".

I really dont understand why the UK cant do the same thing with the age ratings as it is on there and like most steelbooks

So you're saying the content on the disks is not the same worldwide?

GL isn't going to let that date past by without something big.

The booklet is part of the packaging IMHO.

The German discs don't have English in DTS-HD MA, only lossy DTS.

Did any of you hear about one of the last minute changes George made? He switched out the ROTJ Jabba with a very fat Watto from Ep 1!

Deep Discount shipped mine today. Too late to cancel.

This is the spine of the digistack. You can just about see the tape that holds the trays together at the spine. It may seem flimsy but they feel very sturdy in hand.
