Notes:The first pressing of this release had problems affecting Discs 1, 3, 6 and 7. The Disc 1 problems are player-specific and consumers are advised to update their firmware. Corrected replacements for Discs 3 (authoring fault in Propellant 23), 6 (transposed scenes in The Golden Eggs) and 7 (ten seconds of footage missing from Conspiracy of Silence) were made available from StudioCanal. Second pressing sets include the corrected discs (From the 'Avengers Declassified' site).
