Does anyone know if this is the only version to contain the B&W version of the pilot episode - the UK release is on offer here right now, but ideally like to have the B&W version as it aligns better with the actual comic book...

I made some comment about "Season 2" Zombie Head.

Interestingly enough this Exclusive Edition was left out during the time of Season 3 Offer came out.

I feel bad for Best Buy not utilizing the "Mc Farlane Toys" Packaging Concept!
