Gonna get the boxset today...but what's the difference between


so i went to best buy last week with no money and saw the box set of this amazing show. only i saw TWO boxsets. one of them was called "viridian" and had henrietta on the cover sitting on a chair. what's the difference between the 2 sets? i'm going to go to best buy again today, in hopes that the sets have been restocked but i'd like to make my decision knowing about both of these sets. so help?

thanks in advance.

ok, in case you haven't already found this out, I realize that this post is considerably old, but I have nothing else better to do at 2:30 am than help you out, so here goes.

The "Complete Box Set" is exactly that. All thirteen episodes on three discs with plastic pop-out CD holders in the box, like most all DVD cases. It has various special features, and what have you. All the essentials for a DVD box set.

The "Viridian Edition" is, get this, the EXACT SAME THING! Yeah, they special features are the same, there are all thirteen episodes, and all that jazz. The only difference is that this DVD set has cardboard sleeves instead of the plastic pop-out holders in the DVD case, and it is about ten bucks cheaper.

There ya go. Hope it helped. If not, well *beep*.

So this is how liberty dies... with thunderous applause.

haha. it's alright, i appreciate it anyway. ended up buying the viridian collection. And i've watched through the show about 3 times already. also bought the viridian collection of a show called kiddy grade.

what i've learned about these viridian collection is that they all come with the same cardboad sleeved packaging and an easy slip on box cover. i also noticed that they have no guidebooks...curious.
