I GOT IT!
It was waiting on my doorstep tonight when I got home, about 10 minutes ahead of the rain. The box looked a tad beat up and ready to split open, but I tested all 10 discs (1 song or skit each), and they all worked fine.
Yes, my disc 8 has the list of stars from disc 9 on it. I don't believe they actually put the wrong entire label on it, just that the "dot" which lists the 3 featured stars on that disc list's the wrong set of stars. Because the coloring is different, and matches the coloring on the insert of the keepcase. Hmmmmm...
And, yes, the "VHS" text is in the tiny print on the back, too.
Otherwise, all is well. I'm happy, I have my Muppets. And my son loved seeing Kermit! Over the Labor Day weekend we'll delve deeply into these!
For anyone interested, here's the breakdown by DVD of the Disc #, Episode (A, B, or C) on each disc, the episode's official production #, the year the episode first aired, and the guest star(s).
