GKIDS and All The Anime jointly revealed the Collector's and Standard Edition Blu-rays for Neon Genesis Evangelion today after unveiling the Ultimate Edition a couple of weeks back. While the Collector's Edition will receive similar on-disc features as the Ultimate Edition, including the "classic" ADV dub, the standard edition of the series will be limited to the dub first heard on Netflix.
The Collector's Edition will also come with a 40-page book, 8 art cards, and 7 hours of special features over 11-discs, while the standard edition will only have 5 hours of special features on five discs. Both the US and UK editions remain the same, as presumably will the Australia edition, though hasn't been formally announced at this stage.

A digital-to-own version will also be released in the US at the same time as the standard edition.
