The Complete Superman Collection is £22.97 ($35.92) this week. It would be slightly cheaper once the VAT is knocked off.

I hadn't noticed this before, but many of the Twilight Zone seasons are approx. $25 with shipping; supposedly region free - anyone know if there are any differences (more or less extra features?). --Peter

Whedonesque tweeted that Dollhouse seasons 1 and 2 are L16, region A and B
Tempting because I never got season 2, though I watched the broadcast

The UK Hitchcock Masterpiece box has been showing up as £100.00 for me lately:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Alfred-Hitch...dp/B008D1TNCE/
For kicks, I put it in my cart and it rang up at £86.41. So, suffice it to say, I finally preordered this. That's about US$136, almost $90 less than the US version.
YMMV? Or not? I don't understand why it was listed at £100 and then showed up at £86.41, but I'm not complaining.

re: International Blu-ray deals
I'm really really debating hard between all of these boxsets (Hitchcock and Monsters). I wish we had a more detailed look at what will be inside, as I'm pretty sure the disc content should be the same.
Hitchcock (UK regular vs UK deluxe vs US)
UK regular vs UK deluxe: no brainer, considering the price difference, deluxe easily wins.
UK vs US: pricing should also make this a no brainer, but I can't help but feel the set is slightly less complete without NxNW. I think I also prefer the US art, but I'd assume the UK regular set would feature the same art. The classier version in the deluxe set does look good though.
Monsters (UK regular vs UK deluxe vs US)
Identical sets with a huge difference in price means the US set isn't even in the running.
UK regular vs UK deluxe: The packaging is pretty neat, but the difference in price is a bit steep just for the packaging.
