Well they apparently removed the reference to the pre-1981 original opening crawl from SW.com.
I'd like to see that too (for now I'm stuck with fan re-creations of it, and the low quality version shown briefly in "Empire of Dreams" on disc 4 of the 2004 set), but yeah, I'll believe it when I see it.
I got the impression that that isn't set in stone. And if they are using 1993 source material, there's little chance of that appearing...
Hey, I bought the gold (pan 'n' scan, I didn't realize until it was too late that there was a wide screen version in silver) SE box back in the day when it was on sale. The thing might have been a bit cheesy, but at the time I thought it was the coolest thing ever. And at least the thing has held up, it's pretty solid compared to the flimsy piece of crap that the 2004 set came in. That thing is so thin, all of the boxes were dented and scratched already on the shelf. At least it wasn't cardboard all the way through, the amray cases inside were fine.
It'll be really confusing for customers if they use the original Star Wars movie poster on the outside (like they did for the 2005 re-issue of the 2004 set minus the bonus disc).
