The Simpsons Season 13th Announced

20th Century Fox announced “The Simpsons: The Complete Thirteenth Season” for Blu-ray release on August 24th. The Blu-ray release also include specially created menus with additional animation that does not appear on the DVD. Also, on a side note if you can’t wait for the release for the first time ever, fans will be able to purchase the molded head DVD more than a month early at the Fox Booth #4313 at San Diego Comic-Con International between July 22 and July 25. As an added bonus, they will also receive a collectible limited edition lithograph as a gift-with-purchase. The press release does not mention the Blu-ray being sold aside from the DVD version, but I will try and verify if indeed both versions will be available at Comic Con. Check below for technical specifications and supplements.
