Great price. How's the packaging on the Blu-Ray set?

The packaging is mediocre for the BDs, but nothing terrible. It opens up like a book, has foam knobs for where the discs go, and the white plastic covers are a chore to get on and off.

Many thanks, punit. I don't always thank you for your Amazon posts, but they are always very much appreciated. I would have missed quite a few great deals if not for you!

Does the blu-rays have the same extras as the SD ultimate collector's set? Man, I paid 200 dollars for all 4 collections when they came out.

Along the same line as that...anyone who has had the standard and upgraded to blu ray versions...is the difference in video/sound quality significant enough that I should take the dive into the blu ray versions as opposed to getting the complete set in one shot?

Yes!

The Blu-rays look and sound fantastic. A ton of work (and $) went into making these great. Thunderball is easily in one of the top 10 catalog release in terms of PQ/AQ of films older then 30 years old.

This is the same deal of the day they had back in November when Quantum of Solace hit theaters.

Sprung for the Blus. Damnit. On the heels of the full series sets of "Twilight Zone" and "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.", this has been a bad couple of weeks for the credit card.

I'm glad I missed this.

I consider myself a Bond fan, but catch them on TV so often that I have never watched my original complete collection of the Bond DVDs, let alone the re-releases from a couple years ago, and the first batch of blus. So yeah, I own like 40 unwatched Bond discs. Pathetic.

If you haven't gotten them on DVD by now, any investment on them would be a waste of money. Seriously when you see how awesome the Blu-rays look, if you're a Bond fan you will be buying them on Blu-ray at some point down the line regardless.

Since I got in on the Dr. No, FRWL, and Thunderball Amazon deal for about $6.70 delivered do I care about filling out my collection with a bunch of so-so Bond films in hi-def and do I care whether so-so films are in hi-def? No, not much. Sure I'll pick them up down the line when they are dirt cheap. Meanwhile, SD is fine and I Netflixed Goldfinger in Blu-Ray so ... I'm good for now. I can be patient.
