Is this worth it?

It depends. I didn't like where the franchise went after Burton left. So I own Batman and Batman Returns separately on BR. That's where I stop. The rest were, in my opinion, utter crap. But that's me. At ~$13 each, it isn't bad (though I got both mine for a little less).

This can be had for less than $30 shipped from Amazon.uk.

I ordered my copy from there and it plays and looks great.

By the way, the Batman BD included in the boxset doesn't include the Digibook, right?

No, they're four slim BD cases.

And just an FYI: this as been cheaper at Amazon before, like around $6 or $7 cheaper.

If this was $40 or less (like the Die Hard set has been), I'd be on it. I never got Batman Forever on DVD. However, this set includes Batman and Robin meaning the per-disk price for the decent movies is more like $17.50 each.

No trying to threadcrap but I have a hard time watching these now after the Nolan films. Seems like a warm deal though.

The first two appear to be the same as far as extras. I bought the UK version and the only other difference is that they are the thicker cases and the slipcase is different, it's a side slipcase that the 4 cases slide into, so it's quite a bit thicker, probably twice as thick would be my guess.
