As you may know there are three versions featuring the saga that will be made available - a 3-disc Prequel Trilogy set, a 3-disc Original Trilogy set, and a 9-disc Complete Saga Set--That's the one I ordered .
The latter includes both the aforementioned 3-disc sets combined with another three discs of special features. It looks as though not all of the Bonus Material has been annouced yet--The great retrospective Empire of Dreams: The Story of the 'Star Wars' Trilogy is abscent for example
