If you guys were going to be buying the Indy set right now, would you buy the 2003 version or this special edition?

I was going to buy the 4-disc set earlier this year but then heard the special edition was coming out and thought I should wait to hear what special features it had on it. From what I see here, the "special edition" does not seem to be very special and the descriptions of the extras in the original set sound more interesting. How good are the extras in the original set. I'm more interested in seeing how they did the stunts and other making-of stuff than featurettes about Indy's women or side-kicks.

I already own Temple of Doom, which I bought for $3 from a fellow forum member, so I would either buy Raiders and Last Crusade Special editions, or the 4-disc original set if the price came down with the release of the special editions. So, price would likely be comparable between the two options, which reduces the selection criteria to PQ/SQ and extras. Note, I don't have an HDTV and won't for awhile, but do have a good HT.

What would you guys recommend I do?
