FULL version on DVD?


I'll be getting the US-edit (83 minutes) on the Criterion re-issue of The Seventh Seal (which I've pre-ordered). What I'm wondering though is if anyone knows how to get ahold of the full version on DVD? I believe there is a Swedish DVD with English subtitles, but trying to find it on European DVD sites is proving an uphill battle.

Criterion has also recently issued it as a solo DVD, but it's the 83-minute version - however, it's one of the lower-priced Criterions ($19.98 SRP), and Barnes & Noble has a 50% sale coming up on Criterions later this month (7/14 - 8/03), so I've got my eye on it.

I enjoyed it very much, but wouldn't mind the full-length version at all - this left me wanting more! It becomes apparent that it was edited from a longer work because of differences in his physical appearance (hair and beard are longer/shorter). Highly recommended.
