Hybrid Theory Special Edition

[Branden]

...So, I was walking through the mall, and I walked into the music shop. I was looking for a few CD's including Reanimation. While I was in the Linkin Park section I saw a "Hybrid Theory - Special Edition". It had the same art and things except the case was made like the Meteora and Live in Texas cases instead of the jewel case. I was wondering what exactly is different about this version (at this particular store it was $8 more than the regular Hybrid Theory) and if it is worth it to buy it although I already have HT. Also, sorry if there's already been a thread like this, I'm not sure :( :unsure:

[Willstar]

Holy crap! They made Hybrid Theory in a digi-pak case?! I have to get it!

[Branden]

That still didn't answer my question... But ya, it's true. I don't know if they have a store called "FYE (For Your Entertainment)" wherever you live, but that's where I saw it.

It has a bonus CD with Papercut, Points of Authority and A Place For My Head (all live at the Docklands Arena in London), My December and High Voltage. I don't know if its worth the extra cash, but I got it because I never bought the regular version, I just "borrowed" (:shifty:)my sister's.

And it's not a digipak, it's a slip case. A slim cardboard cover is the best way I can describe it.

[Branden]

Ok thanks, I'll look around a little bit and see if I can find a better price and hopefully pick it up!

[JJ]

that sounds sweet - i havnt seen anything like that before. i'll have to pick a copy up for myself ^_^

Yeh, it's not digi-pak.

It's the 2 disc set and it's just got a cardboard cover...


I don't know if they still sell it there but if you really want it then it's at CD-Wow (http://www.cd-wow.com) for a cheap price... That's where I got it...


I'd give an exact link but my computer won't let me search for Linkin Park for some reason... :wth:

If you look at the cardboard cover, it says: Special Edition underneath the Hybrid Theory writing... :mellow:

sweet - thanks for the link

It is the Japanese Import. What's the difference between a digipack and a slipcase?

[Dedicated]

Forget the link to that site, it doesn't sell the SE anymore...

When I looked at amazon it's said Imported. Heres a link:

But...
When I went onto tower records it said this:

A digi-pak like folds open and stuff, a slip case is just a cardboard cover with a regular jewel case inside.

Tower Record's info is wrong, High Voltage is no AC/DC cover. Their's is selling for less though. That's good.

edit: And it is a real 'Special Edition' release, it was just never released in the USA, hence the tag "import".

[Willstar]

Oh. Damn.

I was hoping that they finally heard me and fulfilled my request for a re-released digipak version of Hybrid Theory.

Sad.
