The new BoS Limited has also not been released in other regions yet than USA and Canada (Region 1). But i guess that will happen in 2009 that it also will be released in Europe (Region 2).

I have just one question before I buy this set. What is the state of the music on this release? New Music? Old Music? Is it the same as the previous sets?

Hi there,
I am new here, well ...newly registered. I have been lurking for several years infact! I just never took the time to register, which was silly of me.
Anyway, I too have the limited edition book of shadows that recently came out. I noticed there are a few mistakes. I know one is, but the other I can't be totally sure. I thought I would run this by you guys/gals and see what you think.
To call the Halliwell Matriarchs spell, did anyone notice that this spell is mixed with the truth spell?
Also under the third season, "Exit Strategy," It says "While Phoebe can no longer control her powers." When in reality its Piper when she gets her exploding power. I think this was also an error on the plain dvd sets.
I am also a bit sad that the original spell that gave them their powers isn't in this collection of spells! Was brad kern even involved in the creation of this set? There are also a few spells that stand out more than others. I have no memory of where the bunyip came from, but I would think The Truth Spell and a couple of others would have been really nice to include more so than some of the ones that were included. A page on the Source, or Javna, or the Wendigo, or even Awakened or Melinda Warren. Just some of the main plot episode spells would have been great.
Aside from what spells I think would have been better, I think its a beautiful, beautiful book! Its certainly something wonderful to look at while you watch the show.
I also have to complain that the bonus features are okay but I wished there had been more commentary by the cast on select episodes (especially earlier seasons). I also would have liked to have seen a gag reel or two. I know for a fact Paramount (or whomever) has more deleted scenes and such. Take for example the season two episode one, when Prue moves the vase...that is def not in the episode.
Anyway, I don't want to overly complain but I just thought I would point out what others have also mentioned about this collection. I also had alot of scratched dvds in the BOS collection, luckily I have all my backup dvds of the seasons.
Adam

BTW about scratched DVDs, then you should not keep the Extras disk in the pocket it should normally be stored in. The pocket itself gives the disk a lot of scratches because the surface inside the pocket is a bit to rough. There is space enough though also to click it safely into one of the spaces where the season disks are stored. This does not scratch the Extras disk.

The mistake of the page "To Call The Halliwell Matriarchs" isn't done by the people who made the dvd set. The mistake is done by the artist of that page. The Bunyip is mentioned in season two and the pages have been seen in some episodes. The best example is in season 5 when Paige putted those color things on each page of the Book and Piper is saying something like "What's a Bunyip then?" You can see the pages then. A page on the Source would be cool, but it doesn't exist. The Book of Shadows never had a page on him. That's the same for Melinda. I would totaly love to have the wendigo pages or the Awakening Spell but even if the DVD set had different pages, you would always like to have more. They should just make a complete BoS replica. About the nex extra's: I'm soo happy they did a longer bonus feature on the Book! Because of it, we finally could see the Zankou page better and the Raptor Demon page nobody knew about!

Sad news to every one out there who wanted it: Paramount has stopped releasing this limited BoS release, they them selves do not have it in stock any more and several stores (online stores incl) does also not have it on stock any more. Only one who is mostly still available is the standard release, where the book itself is much smaller in size.
That makes me happy that i pre-ordered mine back when it got announced in 2008. But be careful out there on places like eBay if you want to shop it there, scammers WILL take advantage of this.
