Do I have a re-release here... or something else going on?

See something weird here... yesterday I picked up this title...

Sanctum


Region A

Released: 6/7/2011

Widescreen 1.85





I got this copy used for only $4. UPC on the back cover is 025192073557

The covers in profiler is of the slip cover that I did not get on mine (slip cover either missing or was re-released without)

The strange thing however is the cover (neither my main cover or the online slip cover) nor the profile indicates this to be a Blu-ray/DVD Combo (on a single flipper disc).

I can see a few different possibilities here...

1. No one profiled this one as a combo... and just not mentioned on case (Seems odd to me)
2. Re-release adding the DVD later (Seems very odd)
3. The pawn shop I got this got it without the original case... had a case laying around but wrong UPC (Seems unlikely)

My guess would be number 1.... but if at all possible I would like to hear from someone with UPC 025192073557 in their collection to verify they have a flipper combo despite what the profile/case says.

Hi Pete,

I can't tell you about this specific title, but I can say that I have encountered a situation where the original release was blu-ray only and a subsequent re-release with the same EAN was a blu-ray/DVD combo release. I'm waiting for 3.9 to be released to use the variants feature in order to contribute the combo variant.

So it does happen (albeit this was a Dutch release).

Cheers,
DJ

Pete, I seem to have found your release version on Amazon. It's billed as a "Best Buy" exclusive Bul-Ray on one side DVD on the other. Hope this helps.

So unless someone here says they have the original release (non-Best Buy) being a combo pack I am looking at a variant.  Thanks

The correct profile for the Best Buy exclusive of the Blu-ray/DVD Combo flipper is 025192-107245

The original UPC was only included on a sticker over the inside case.
