Just picked up R4 copy and it is full length

I live in Sydney Australia and just picked up R4 Salute of the Jugger. This is distributed by Hopscotch Entertainment.

www.hopscotchfilms.com.au

Run time on cover states 90min but website list as 120 min. The website is correct. It shows both the extended ending and the tax collector scene.

I am so excited now as this has been one of my all time favourite movies and I have been searching for the full length version on DVD for quite a while.

Picture quality seems to be quite good and looks pretty clear on my 42"HD plasma screen, considering the movie is an older film.

Cover art is really nice too and best of all I got it for $12.95 AUS at Video Ezy :)

Hope this helps, I am off to watch this great movie !

The longest version I'd heard of was 103 min. (original Japanese release?). Please confirm it is really that long.
I watched this movie on VHS in 1989 (99 min.? - seemed uncut). In 1990 it was banned in Germany and chopped up. Currently there is an "uncut PG-18" version (99 min.) and a PG-16 one (84 min.).

= should be the same as the original German release. It's definitely not 120 - pity, I would have liked to see that.
What happened in Germany is really a shame. The adult cut on DVD has no german dubbing in the "extended" scenes, they didn't use the original cinematic master.
