"Finally, here's more very cool Star Wars Blu-ray news. We've finally learned that when the Star Wars: The Complete Saga Blu-ray set streets on 9/16, in addition to the previously released audio commentaries with Lucas and members of the production crew, each film will include a second commentary as well culled together from archival interviews with cast and crew members.
What's more, you'll get 45 deleted and extended scenes in all (!), plus new cast and crew interviews and packed interactive galleries featuring images of matte paintings and concept art, as well as "turnarounds" of props, maquettes, models and costumes. Interesting.
The 45 deleted/extended scenes look to be the real treasure trove. Should be some interesting stuff in there."

Sweet Jesus - 45 deleted and extended scenes?
So if we assume prequel deleted scenes are the same as DVD:
7 TPM
8 AOTC
6 ROTS
21 scenes from the prequels
Possibly 24 scenes from the Original Trilogy?
That's a little too good to be true. Maybe more prequel deleted/extended?
The pie in the face (I'm betting) will be that some of these scenes will be from OT theatrical releases that were cut for the '97 special editions/'04 DVDs. So we'll see Shaw as ghost Anakin, Sy Snootles original number, Ewoks yub nub song, the version of Han shooting first and of course the laughable SE Han and Greedo both shooting at the same time. Even better, maybe after all these years George Lucas will explain why he changes scenes with a nice introduction to each. If its Rick McCallum..then I'll have to take that as another pie in the face.
Hopefully I'm wrong. At least we'll have quick access to Lapti Nek?
