Easter Eggs: None
Amazon ASIN (UK, French, German, USA releases only): B000O599V2
Source: Own it.

The 3-disc "Ultimate Collector's Edition" (not "Three-Disc Special Edition", as currently noted) box set has the wrong Amazon ad. It should be: ASIN B0018O50W0.
Of course, the actual "Three-Disc Special Edition", with pared-down packaging, is the one in the current ad (ASIN B0018O4RT2). It should have a separate entry or be noted in the current entry's footnotes.

It's perhaps worth noting that the 3-disc editions do not contain the acclaimed, BD-only, SmileBox version.

You're welcome! However, I notice the Amazon-hyperlinked Notes: Later reissued as part of The John Wayne Collection" doesn't carry DVDCompare's affiliate link. Plus, surely the line Rear sleeve erroneously claims it's "Enhanced for widescreen TVs". is useful, pertinent info, well worthy of inclusion?

Also, how about actioning the two items I mentioned underneath my comparison? :)

The link has been updated.
The wording has been changed to "The rear cover mistakenly states an anamorphic transfer." I believe the meaning is clear rather than the word for word written on the back of the case.
