The collection also includes two versions of a 24 × 36-inch lithographic one-sheet, offering both unframed and framed options.
VHS Variants
Vice Press has crafted three distinct editions, each offering a slightly different aesthetic:
- All three editions feature the iconic green tape and the same A3-sized poster.
- Two editions include one of four spine stickers, allowing owners to display a ninja motif on the tape.
- The third edition omits the sticker, but its slipcase artwork is reversible, giving collectors a choice of front or back design.
| Variant | Sticker | Slipcase | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Green-Tape Edition | ✓ (1 of 4) | Reversible | $55 |
| Green-Tape Edition | ✓ (1 of 4) | Reversible | $55 |
| Green-Tape Edition | ✗ | Reversible | $55 |
Each variant is limited: the slipcase version caps at 200 copies, while the other two editions are limited to 400 each. The UK’s PAL format means U.S. fans will need a compatible player to enjoy the tapes.
Lithographic One-Sheets
Alongside the VHS releases, Vice Press is offering two lithographic prints of the original theatrical one-sheet with credits. These prints measure 24 × 36 inches and are available in both unframed and framed editions:
- Unframed: $50 per copy.
- Framed: $140 per copy.
The unframed edition is limited to 300 copies, while the foil-finished version is limited to 180 copies.

These lithographs capture the original movie poster’s layout, offering collectors a piece of the film’s legacy.
