All the discs have new art, though DH1-3 are all the same content from the previous Australian releases.

DH4, as seen above, does not say 'harder cut' on the disc, which was a little surprising at first, as the DH5 disc specifically says that under the title. Whatever, no big deal I guess.

Decoding Die Hard is on a BD-25, the rest are BD-50s.

DH4 has been majorly changed from the old release in terms of set-up (the transfer quality is identical), I did quite a few comparisons:

-The old release, like DH1-3, goes straight to the movie, and only has a pop-up menu. If you're viewing the BD from a PS3, it just came up as 'BDMV'.

-The new release has a brand new menu, somewhat similar to DH5's menu. When viewing from a PS3, it has its own image, and the title shows up ('Die Hard 4.0')

-When you put the disc on, it immediately asks whether you want to go to the theatrical or extended menu (unlike the DH5 Blu, which just automatically takes you to the theatrical, and you have to switch from the 'Set Up' options)

-Crucially, this release of DH4 contains more special features than the previous one - Fox brought over everything from the other DVD releases etc. Even though none of these are listed on the back of the case, the theatrical cut commentary with Bruce and Wiseman has been brought over (absent from the previous Australian BD, and I think the UK BD?)

-The gag reel is also back. There may have been some other featurettes, but I don't think so. I'll do a double-check tomorrow, if anyone cares. Nothing is missing from the old release; it's all there.

-DH5 disc is, I believe, the exact same release as previously available here. Although the back of the case does not mention it, the John Moore/other dude commentary is there for the extended cut.

Anyone have any other questions before they take the plunge?
