A few weeks ago, we reported on a small editing error found in the new Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan – Director’s Cut Blu-ray, where a short scene duplicated a bit of visual effects footage.

This afternoon, Paramount Home Entertainment shared with us their newly-announced a disc recall and replacement program for this mastering issue, with instructions on how fans can get a new version of the Khan Blu-ray.

It has come to our attention that there is a slight master assembly error on the recent Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan Director’s Cut Blu-ray release.

Fans who would like a replacement should contact our customer service department at wrathofkhanreturns@tce.com or toll free at 844-898-4365.

The corrected product will be shipped free of charge.  It is always our intention to distribute the highest quality product and we apologize for any inconvenience this error has caused.

When you call the telephone number provided above, the recorded message indicates that once you provide your mailing information, Paramount Home Entertainment will send you a self-addressed return envelope to send them back your disc and Blu-ray case. An estimated replacement timeframe was not included with the announcement, but PHE is sure to replace the discs as soon as they are able.

UPDATE:

Paramount has told us that all future releases of this Khan disc – including the UK and European releases arriving in July – will be the corrected edition of this set.

In addition, the “fixed” version of the film will be identifiable with a yellow UPC barcode on the back of the Blu-ray packaging.

It’s very nice to see Paramount’s commitment to correcting this issue in such a relatively short amount of time from the release of the Khan disc on June 7.
