And a definite improvement on Contender's "Special Edition" which had no extra features at all.

The 2003 edition seems to be the same (it's actually R0, according to Rewind).

The Contender release had a great transfer, better than the R1.
If this combines that transfer and the R1 extras than this could be worth (yet) another punt on DVD.
