The only way to tell the difference between the pressings without watching the film, is the number code on the inner ring of the disc itself:
- Defective pressing: 55014654/32548 DO 21
- Fixed pressing: 55082159/32548-1 DO 21
Constantin Film had a replacement program going on; unconfirmed whether it's still active today. -

The Australian release is missing the commentaries.

If you get the German release, just make sure you get one of the remastered copies, the initial pressing is defective with serious transfer issues!!
