. These come with the same content on the discs, but you’ll also get some extra physical goodies.

Unfortunately, if you want the steelbook cases and the collectibles, you’ll need to buy both editions, as the Walmart-exclusive steelbook is not included in the pricier editions.

This isn’t the first time that these films have been available as 4K Blu-ray editions, but these are certainly the most eye-catching editions yet for big fans of Jim Henson’s filmography.

Labyrinth was first released in 1986. The final feature film directed by Henson, the movie mixed live-action with puppets, and featured stars like Jennifer Connelly as 16-year-old Sarah and David Bowie as Jareth, the Goblin King. It was sadly a box office ***** at the time, but in the decades after it was released it has received glowing reviews and a devoted fanbase. The film follows Sarah as she embarks on a quest to rescue her infant brother Toby from the center of an enormous maze after she wished him away to Jareth.

Like The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth is dark fantasy that strays very far away from your typical Muppets movie, and this 4K release also comes in a steelbook case, featuring an illustration of Toby surrounded by goblins. There’s also an impressive selection of bonus content to watch.

The special features are split across the two-disc set, with most of them appearing on the standard Blu-ray disc. The 4K disc has the film, audio commentary, a fan event Q&A, and a video that teaches you how to Contact Juggle like David Bowie.

Labyrinth Special Features

• 4K version of the film
• Standard Blu-ray version of the film
• Fan event Q&A with Brian Henson and Toby Froud
• Contact juggling tutorial
• Audio commentary with conceptual designer Brian Froud
