Most unique DVD set you own?
Tenacious D: The Complete Masterworks
It includes a full concert, 6 HBO shorts, as well as a few shorts created specifically for the DVD (just imagine Jack Black jerking off to the Rocky theme song). Bunch of other stuff as well...

DVD Talk Gold Edition
Stella Shorts. It's a compilation of the shorts that the guys from Stella (Michael Ian Black, David Wain, and Michael Showalter) made for their live shows a few years ago. It was only available for a short time (I bought it right away, so I don't know how long it was avaialble) from the stella website.
Commentary is included on every short.
I guess by unique I was thinking of a DVD that was unique in and of itself, not necessarily the content.

I like how the Blind Dead come in a small coffin.

Honestly, I think my favorite odd set would have to be the Alien Quadrilogy, just for the awesomely cool artwork, and the INSANELY long foldout digipak setup.
As far as "unique" meaning not many people have them, I have a pretty large collection of Star Wars movies, including several mastered from LD (theatrical editions).

and what's up with the Evil Dead and II's flesh-books - they smelled like rancid dick cheese - the former more so than the recent one

I really like my Nausicaa 'Figure Set' Japanese import

sadly, I wish I knew Japanese to understand the commentary track

About the only unique casing I have is the Cadfael collection that looks like a book and the Kurosawa box set Amazon had for awhile. Overall though I've been slowly trying to convert all my cases to binders and decrease the amount of room taken up
If you're just talking about DVDs, the most unique/limited I have is probably The Hire although I'm sure there might be some more limited/special edition/OOP/hard to find type things in my collection. I really haven't tracked it that much.

Probably my 3 Disc LE of "The Pianist". Blows the US release out of the water, and includes the original soundtrack, which is absolutely incredible, I might add.
Thanks, Canada!
