DVD Toons reports that Warner Home Video have finally announced the long-delayed Special Edition DVD of Brad Bird’s feature directorial debut, The Iron Giant. The 1999 film, originally announced for the SE treatment in mid-2003, has had to wait until now for Bird’s Pixar outing The Incredibles to be completed so that Warners can ride the crest of that wave – both films will be released later this year. For an in-depth look at a foreign version of this same edition, which has been available for some time now, check out DVD Times’ review. The official US region one edition is due to street on September 7 2004, for around $19.97.
