For those that already own the no-frills single disc only edition that has been associated with the purchase of Panasonic products up to this point, the general release is an expanded two-disc Blu-ray 3D Collector's Edition (both the 2D and 3D theatrical versions of the film will be accessible on the Blu-ray disc and, of course, the included DVD is 2D only) with newly created packaging.
Unfortunately, other than the inclusion of the both the 2D and 3D version on a single Blu-ray Disc, as well as a separate DVD disc version, there are no extra bonus features included in this disc set - so the need to "double dip" may not be necessary if you already have a copy of the Panasonic release in combination with any previous 2D Blu-ray or DVD release.
On the other hand, if you own a 3D TV and 3D Blu-ray Disc player and haven't been able to secure a copy of the Panasonic version, and just own the previous 2D Blu-ray standard and extended cut editions, this is your chance to finally get a copy of Avatar the way it is meant to be seen.
