Question about SAVE editions

I've got a few 1st seasons of anime on blu-ray where the 2nd season is cheaper to get as the SAVE edition like Tsubasa and Strike Witches and i was wondering if the SAVE editions have reversible covers so they match up alright with the original releases of the 1st season.
 
Some of them do (both strike witches sets have reversible covers), but some don't (I don't really class what's printed on the back of some sets as a reversible cover).
 
Not all of them, I should probably list which ones do:

Shiki's initial SAVE batch were the original two BD cases in the artbox, with a SAVE sheet stuck on the back with two gummed labels, wrapped in film, and then anothe SAVE sticker applied to that. That shifted pretty quick, and people who ordered later are now getting 8 discs in a Blu-ray Amaray style brick case with a SAVE reversible sleeve.
 
Reversible covers are a Godsend for this line, as if I collected multiple, I'd be unable to find out which is which xD.

Although I only own one S.A.V.E. edition at the moment (Pani Poni Dash).

Cheers for that guys, helps a lot. Seems like most SAVE editions do come with a reversible cover which is good.

A lot of those only have episode lists on the other side, which I don't class as a proper reversible cover since a proper reversible cover has everything the same on both sides apart from the 'front'.

Out of all the ones NormanicGrav has listed as having reversible covers that are in my collection, only two have proper reversible covers (strike witches season 1 and season 2) with the rest having half assed reversible covers (Cat Planet Cuties, Ikki Tousen, Kaleido Star Season 2 and Tsubasa Reservoir chronicles season 1 and season 2)
