As if not getting a true SE is bad enough now they are going to milk this one with 4 covers. who wants to bet that the one with Alba on it sells the most?

So the one coming on the 16th is the barebones one with the deluxe coming near the holidays? I want the edition he talked about with being able to watch the stories seperately in combined form. I'm guessing that isn't the version coming first.

And yes, Alba on the cover for me, if there's a choice. :b

I'm also going to wait for the SE, but you can see all the different slip-covers here.

I don't mind this, i'll be going with the Alba cover. I mean what the hell, her NECA action figure sold out so fast I had to pay $30 for it on ebay , so why should her dvd cover be any different? Just in case, though, i'll be preordering her cover.

On the other hand, studios that do this sort of thing seem to be trying to take advantage of some people's overwhelming need to have the whole set of something, it's sort of exploitive in this respect.
