Purchased Sonic the Hedgehog: Limited Collector's Edition (BD+DVD+Digital) recently, unfortunately it's not in the database.  I've copied images of the front/back covers (back cover image does not have the barcode cutout but otherwise is an exact replica of the actual back of the slipcover).  I downloaded the regular BD/DVD profile so I could get the cast/crew info and a few other details that wouldn't change with the differing editions.  I connected an external DVD drive to my laptop to scan the DVD in the package, which turns out to be the same DVD that's in the regular BD/DVD package, and has the image of that as well.

Problems:  I don't have a BD drive that I can scan the blu-ray disc to assign to this edition.  Also, I'd like to attach this DVD to this edition with the covers for this edition as well, but don't want to influence the original covers in the database. 

Is it OK to contribute what I have so far (without the BD disc info), and how could I contribute the DVD child with this Collector's Edition covers?

Hopefully in layman's terms as I'm not as tech savvy as I'd like to be.

Thanks!

You contribute the DVD child profile via alternate ID, so just change that and the cover art and notate why you're using an alt ID (that the same disc is in multiple combo packs)

As for the main BD profile, you can absolutely contribute without the BD disc info, just notate what edition you took the cast/crew from in the notes.

Thanks for responding Danae.

Figured out how to create the alternate ID, tried to put as many finishing touches on them, and contributed parent and child last night.  Hope it's enough to get it into the database.  And hopefully, someone will come along with the BD disc info...
