1- Both the Fullscreen and Widescreen limited edition versions come with the same Widescreen non-anamorphic (i.e. letterboxed) version of the theatrical edition. The "Fullscreen" and "Widescreen" formatting refers to the Special Edition version of the film that is also included with this release.
2- Features specific to Episode 5 or Episode 6 are indexed under those titles.
3- This feature also appears on some releases of Episode 3.
4- This release comes with a 2-Disc Bluray release which is also indexed here.
5- This feature also appears on some releases of Episode 5.
6- This feature also appears on some releases of Episode 6.
7- Although not specific to this film, this feature was acquired when purchasing the Six movie series from Disney Movies Anywhere in 2015.
8- Included with the first release of the Original Trilogy Box Set (4-Disc version) it was dropped from subsequent releases (3-Disc version) .
9- Additional changes (too numerous and minor to note here) were made from the Special Edition seen on previous DVD releases which itself slightly differed from the Theatrical Special Edition version and other changes were then subsequently made from early DVD release to later DVD and Bluray releases. One source for detailing those chagnes can be found here.
10- This feature is specific to another film in the series but appears only in the digital features from this release. Additionally, this content can also be found on the Star Wars YouTube channel.
11- The Complete Saga Bonus Bluray provides text introductions to the scenes that are not available on the 2-Disc Bluray which means the Complete Saga Bonus Bluray version of the scenes have a slightly longer total runtime.

NOTES:
Even with the releases of the new UltraHD Bluray Combo Pack and its slightly different Bluray bonus disc, this release remains our top choice for a SINGLE release. It comes with the first six films along with 3 Bonus discs (one for the prequel trilogy, one for the original trilogy, and other additional disc) but loses some features from the DVD (including the Original Theatrical version) and does not include the new exclusive features from the bonus Bluray in the UltraHD Combo Pack. Of course, this being Star Wars, the films themselves differ slightly from release to release and you can find online resources that meticulously document those differences though most people will not notice most of them.

NOTES:
Add the 4-Disc (so you get the bonus DVD) Star Wars Trilogy box set for those variations of the Special Edition versions of the film and a chunk of exclusive found only on that bonus disc. If you high value the Original Theatrical Version of the film you might want to substitute the Trilogy Box Set for the Limited Edition DVD as your CORE set instead.

NOTES:
Add one of the Limited Edition DVDs for the Original Theatrical Version of the film (along with the Lego Game Trailer) and the new UltraHD Combo Pack to get the new Bonus Bluray from the 2-Disc Bluray release that comes with that set. You are going to get mostly duplicate features on that disc but there are a handful of exclusives and you get the UltraHD disc as a sweetener as well as the digital exclusives (although none of them are specific to this film).
