I recently contributed a cover scan for this DVD. Since I did it with a sticker to it, someone else made another contribution. So far, no problem, be my guest.

But then I noticed that made me wonder. Dollhouse has just been released in UK, far to early for a re-release.

Yet my cover and his are different. Mine says "Season One". His/Her says "Complete Season One 4-Disc-Set". I am just wondering which one the other owners of this DVD have

Mine


His/Hers:


(PS: The size is only different because I use my own thumbnail and the smaller one is from this site. His/her actual scan has the usual dimensions.)

The second image is the one you can find on www.play.com, but this may very well be a pre-release image.

I've not seen this one yet. If I get a chance, I'll see if I can find it in a local shop tomorrow.

First I thought it might be that the Slip-cover is different than the actual keepcase, but (at least in my copy) they are both the same and they are "season one". The only difference is that the slip-cover is not as dark as the keep-case, but essentially they are both identical to the version that DJ Doena has.

I got my copy from amazon.co.uk. Maybe there are certain "special" designs out there?

While it's not unheard of, we don't get many store unique covers over here. I've got one or two but can't remember the titles off the top of my head but I'm pretty sure that they had a separate EAN.

I've just checked out a couple of sites and with the exception of Play.com they all show the one DJ has.

Yes, good point. If it would be a unique cover, it would most likely have its own UPC...

I took a look at the contribution notes of the profile. The other contributor made it sound as if he scanned the covers (even withdrew them once to adjust gamma), so at the moment I would guess he/she actually has a different cover... very strange...

DJ,

I don't have the set, but have just spoken to a friend that does, he says it matches your scans

Yes; I was definitely under the impression he scanned them... I was the one who commented on the gamma! Very odd as the EAN on the back cover that he also scanned (presumably - there isn't a site that puts up rear covers anymore; certainly not that hi-res) matches.
It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong

I did a search and even used our works access to the publishers site, and can only assume the other scans are pre-release artwork or a very early print run.
Found them at Play.com and HERE
During my search I did find the custom cover below, whose artwork used I prefer to the official release

See now why couldn't the studios come up with a cover like that!

I know you've got the contribution up but I've just seen this in a shop & it matches the version that just says Season One.

At the time this came up my local Tesco's had the version that just said Season One. However I was in there today and saw that the new stock has the other cover which has Complete Season One 4 Disc Set. So does look very much like that 2 distinct cover versions are available.

Do they both have the same EAN?

I'll have a look when I'm next in there, probably not 'til the weekend though.
