Always a good excuse. 
The wording on the pack: "Limited time only. Includes the digitally remastered versions and the original theatrical versions."
This pack was released in 2006. Apparently.

Nah, the main changes (incl. the changed scene with Greedo) predate that (they first up in a new theatrical run and got released on VHS afterward) and were made when Lucas realized the original film elements were about to disintegrate and SW would be gone forever (except by today's standards very poor quality video masters used for the VHS releases) and its was his last chance to salvage the movies for posterity by having them digitally scanned. and rapidly decided the footage had so deteriorated it was best to combine this with a full digital restoration of the material. Salvaging his trilogy cost Lucas a little fortune. He financed the projet by planning a new theatrical run of the restored movies. He took the opportunity to fix a few scenes that bugged him, and added a few extra "eye candy" 3D shots, a kind of test run for the prequels.
Just say NO!

I have the originals on DVD. I bet you can find them in shops still.

Do you mean VHS? Or perhaps you don't equate "Original" to what the rest of us do.

I'm pretty sure that Han shoots first in the DVDs we have, but I'll have to check.

Which is weird, considering how many want the original only. *NM*

There is a lot there that wouldn't have occurred to me, I can admit that.

The answer is to ignore the Blu-Ray release and buy the 2006 release instead.
