WC3 Premiere I didn't hear of until it was fetching high prices on Ebay. HOWEVER, I bought a copy not too long ago for $29.95 from an online store that found a whole bunch of them somewhere. I don't remember the name of the store offhand, but I wouldn't be surprised if this is the source of

The first link was to a scan ofan outer box with blacked out T-shirt note, not the film canister.Never mind ;-) So far it looks as if there are at least three variations of the US release, but if the WCs are anything like the Ultimas, there must be more ;-) /Alexander -Original
