Blu-Ray received and watched!!!

Friends,

I pre-ordered the Blu-Ray over a month ago, and just received it. This movie hasn't looked this good since I saw it in the theater.
I have one concern. I remember distinctly at some point seeing a different version (broadcast variant, cable variant), that had the guy who dropped the cigarette ash and caused the destruction of the base talking to Tanner about stopping at a "shop that has all these WEIRD marital aids" if he ever got to L.A.. I expected to see that in this version, but it was gone. Does anyone else remember this scene? If so where were you seeing it (broadcast, cable, VHS???). This disc contains no deleted scenes. But does have 3 short documentaries, the most anticipated of which is of course, "Landmaster Tales" with Dean Jeffries.

Later all,

CKB

I remember the scene, but only in the TV version. It happens in the bunker that Tanner and Keegan live in. Right after Tanner takes the swig of Jack from the bottle in the theatrical version, the "smoking guy" comes in and asks him if he got what he was asking for in Barstow. Tanner hands him the satchel with the Playboy magazines in it, and the guy runs off. Then, it cuts back to the theatrical version scene of the "smoking guy" running down the hall with his magazines to his bunk.

"It's people..."
