It will indeed be re-issued. The Limited Edition exclusive elements will be, the OST, packaging, artwork and extensive booklet (which will be cut down in the follow on version).

I hate it when companies release things, then put out a box to force double dips on the people who'd already been buying the stuff all along). In general, all of these "Limited editions" are making me lose interest in Arrow - since I find it a pain to keep track of them and scrounge for a copy in the gamble between it selling out before street date. At least Arrow have re-released things, though typically with less content.
We kept the RRP low as we know some might want to double dip. But this is only a short run (Limited to 2000) for those who don't have them. Individual amarays will be released next year so you can complete your Corman/Price/Poe collection then. With so many titles it's not economical or sensible for us to do the boxed set AND the individuals at the same time, not with such a short pre-order window, if it were like Borowczyk, which was on pre-order for many months, we would have done the same as that. Hope that makes sense! The Limited Edition status is because we can't sensibly keep something like this in print forever, but if we were not to say Limited Edition and then let is disappear without notice that would cause much more upset. All the content on the discs will still be available in individual editions as mentioned. The book will have content which can't be re-pressed and this is for space reasons, there's no real way around that, not in the current marketplace.
EDIT: Thanks Eddie Larkin for sharing that.
