| | Posted: | | | | It seems that the back covers for the children profiles have the Target exclusive back cover.
The original release was on 3/6/2012 UPC 883929-228669
The re-release was on 1/8/2013 UPC 88392-9249367
The children back cover show a UPC of 883929-29062
The back cover clearly doesn't go with this parent profile. Does anyone have the correct back cover that goes with the original release date. |

| | Posted: | | | | I purchased the Target Exclusive on day 1 and the UPC is 883929-29062. There may have been more than one exclusive. Heck Best Buy had two exclusives I think, Target may have had more than one.
But those child profiles do match the day one release of the Target Exclusive that I purchased day 1 | | | | Last edited: by Scooter1836 |

It's a "First-In, First Stays" rule for the child profiles. As Scooter noted, there were multiple different covers released, but the child profiles are the same discs for each (except for the bonus disc for the Target release). The profiles were released on 3/7/12, not a re-release. | | | | Last edited: by synnerman |

| | Posted: | | | | Child profiles are contributed by Disc ID, not UPC. As the same discs are often repackaged with different covers and UPCs, they're not always gonna match what you own. The current covers are supposed to stay in as whoever contributed them owned the Target version. If it bothers you, you can copy the images from whatever parent profile you have, paste them into the children, lock down the cover images, and keep it local. | | | My DVD/Blu-ray Collection

| | Posted: | | | | Does anyone have a better back cover scan for the re-release UPC 883929-249367 than the faded one that is available? |

| | Posted: | | | | Just so we are clear, there is no "First-In, First Stays" rule for child cover scans. There is an agreement, between some users, but no rule. If you can supply better quality scans, and they match a valid release, then you should submit them. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | Actually many in the community have agreed to that. If for nothing else to prevent a ping-pong of image contributions.
I am not sure overwriting 2+ year old images just to have the child profiles set to a different image is the right thing to do since obviously for several years the owners of the respective sets have been OK with what was there. And of course anyone can change them back, ping-ponging images from the same release date.
This is a common occurrence and should just be dealt with locally like we all have had to deal with for years. | | | | Last edited: by Scooter1836 |

In my opinion, the covers in the main database should always be for the generic release that is available to everyone. It's the exclusives that should be kept local. I do not, however, care enough to fight that fight. My real point was, there is no rule preventing the contribution and, much as some of us may want to, you really can't vote based on a community agreement. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | 1. You can go with the majority (Whether they are right or wrong), less hassles (until a few change their mind and then you get it stuck in your A##)
2. Apply your understanding of the rules to your contributions (using common sense) (I do this 90% of the time)
3. Work the fringes and grey areas of the rules to contribute what you want (usually brings the wrath of many) (I do this after certain people throw me under the bus, just to show I can, because those that came up with the wording of the rules should have done a better job). | | | | Last edited: by ateo357 |
