Found this through a link from TheDigitalBits.com. There's no release date yet but it looks pretty cool.

neat I don't have blade runner on DVD yet, I might get this

Next to The Empire Strikes Back Blade Runner is my favorite movie of all time so to say I'm looking forward to a Special Edition that includes all of the versions of this film would be an understatement. Hopefully thats what this set will contain and it will also be available on HD DVD. Otherwise I'll just have to keep watching my Criterion Laserdisc as that is IMO the best version of the film to date. I wasn't a fan of the so called Director's Cut. To me the narration by Deckard added a lot of depth to the film and should never have been removed.

I've been waiting for this version. Ridley Scott said years ago he was going to do his definitive version. I also hear Joanna Cassidy was refliming some of her scenes for this. Let's hope the picture quality is sharper than the original DVD reelease.

Not bothered about getting the briefcase (not even sure it will be available in the UK), but would definitely buy Ridley Scott's "Final Cut".

Now THAT would be cool. Or maybe a couple of snake scales.

I don't have a problem with picking up another copy of Blade Runner.
