I literally bought the limited slipcase version 2 weeks ago from Arrow because I thought it would be sold out soon.

Gaaah, I should have waited!

No regrets from me, the steelbook is nice and all but the Arrow special editions with the slipcase look great. I have the DOTD and Day Of The Dead releases and also black Sabbath/black Sunday. Love the packaging, the interchangeable covers and the booklets.

This - I have the Dead films in the slips and they look great. Plus I think you can only get all the extras if you buy the Limited Edition as these steelbooks look to be light on extras. This is my favourite of the ones announced, though. I'm conflicted as to which version to get, as I have neither!

The extras should be identical to the regular Arrow release

I thought it was a 3 disc-er? Don't get me wrong, I couldn't care less about a DVD copy, but didn't this have an extra disc with something else like an extra cut or something?

No, it reproduces the content from the BD, for which they needed 2 DVD's.

It'll be interesting if they eventually do a steelbook of Black Sabbath, as that one does have extras exclusive to the DVD - Alan Jones intro, Mark Damon interview, and the various trailers.

Cheers for clearing that up. Think I'll go for the steel on this one. I've only ever scene short clips from the film, and I definitely want to watch it this Halloween. The interchangeable art and booklet and all that jazz from the slipbox is nice, but this is clearly the best of the art and it looks snazzy.
