Dig deeper into the packaging and you'll uncover some Mondo art cards, a hardcover art book, a 4-inch statue of the giant himself and a letter from director Brad Bird. Both the regular Signature Edition -- which includes the documentary, as well as the new and original cut in high definition -- and the Ultimate Collectors Edition will be available from September 6th, almost a year after the remaster had its limited run in US cinemas.

If you need a reminder, The Iron Giant was the directorial debut of Brad Bird, who went on to spearhead The Incredibles and Ratatouille at Pixar. Most recently, he's been busy directing live action films such as Mission: Impossible: Ghost Protocol and Tomorrowland. The Iron Giant tells the story of Hogarth Hughes, a young boy that stumbles upon an enormous mechanical being (voiced by Vin Diesel). Inevitably, the pair are forced to fend off government agents and the military. It won an array of awards and is up there with the best animated works by Disney and Studio Ghibli.
