I worked on this project and couldn't find one reference to "there will be no standard edition" - especially since one *was* released in France, Spain, and Italy at the same time as this one. Can you show me where this was stated? I mean, it's only really been a few months since the Special Edition actually hit the open market and now here's a more affordable version. And I think calling them liars is a little much - no one was lied to and if the studio is guilty of anything it's giving customers a chance to get the book at a much more reasonable price point. I for one am just happy we got this book at all, and that the studio gave our community artists a global showcase for their work. Cool move, actually...
