  Im a bit disappointed with the cover though I have thought so early on that they are going to align the 1-disc art with the recently relased 1-disc/movie trilogy (full front poster theme).

This is the official 2-disc cover art:




This is how the cover should have looked like this to match the original relase (Photoshoped by a DVDActive User):

I guess the studio wants to encourage the consumers to buy the 4 movie set instead.   

[juanch]

I want the 4th film but I won't be persuaded to double dip the other 3

[Mr. Hankey]

I'm buying the 4th film "for completion." No double dip for me, regardless of how it looks on my shelf.

[techdude]

No double dip for me too... but if they package it in a steelcase, throw in a Indy whip, bag, and shirt (I already got a Fedora hat from Magnavision ) - I might reconsider.

I was just slightly disappointed with this fourth entry, but I'm getting it for completion's sake. And hey, it's Indy. I like the official 2-disc art.

Best Buy will have the "Limited Edition with Crystal Skull" version, currently on pre-order for $44.99

Problem with this is... I'd never want to unwrap it, the wrapping is better than the movie!
