Wow its taken many years after the VHS special edition came out but its been worth the wait. Not only do you get the reworked and polished film with the special effects cleaned up but you also get the original un molested cinema release. Two films for the price of one one for the purists who grew up with the film and love the models, and one for the new lovers who get so much CGI you would think Lucas owns the companies who did them ( he does btw ).
As a kid i went though several VHS tapes and now the DVD will have this on.
Its not perfect , there are still things ild like to see such as more outtakes/cut scenes, also its a shame theres no HD support but next years the 30th aniversary so hopefully there will be one then.
