Very nice! I'm a bit confused by the "3 DVDs -- at least 2 of them double-sided" comment, though. Based on the double-length pilot, 13 regular episodes, and featurette, I would expect:
Disc 1 -- Pilot, Episodes 1-2 (about 3 hours total)
Disc 2 -- Episodes 3-6 (about 3 hours total)
Disc 3A -- Episodes 7-10 (about 3 hours total)
Disc 3B -- Episodes 11-13, Featurette (about 3 hours total)
With a total running time of 725 minutes (12 hours, 5 minutes), only one double-sided disc would be necessary. Why spend extra money on a fifth "side" when everything could comfortably fit on four sides?

Cool! The Nazi WWII season! I am so there.
It's intresting to note how close the US artwork is to the second UK disc:
But then, how much variation can there be here, really?

I wish she would do commentary on the "Fausta" episode, just to hear her take on why it's usually one of the oft-most discussed and even favorite of the series. It's one of the very few episodes where Wonder Woman is captured, tied-up, and knocked out....

...The episode features the first "girdle grab" where Diana loses the magic belt that allows her to retain her strength and cunning away from Paradise Island when her own magic lasso is used against her. Also, it sets up the unfortunate trend of chloroforming/gassing Wonder Woman in order to incapacitate her, and has some needlessly kinky bondage scenes.

Ah, this is one guilty pleasure, along with Charlie's Angels. I think that I'll have to drop a hint so that I can get this set for my birthday.
Just about everything TV is coming to DVD, what's next - Manimal?
That would be nice!

But would be a nice touch to add that to the season 1 set.

Actually, I'd say the "bondage scenes" were pretty good homages to the Wonder Woman comic adventures from the 40s where that happened in almost every issue!
