Maybe DDD is bad for international shipping. I would ship it so that it gets there in 7-10 days.

Each volume is $37.78 at DDD WITHOUT the 20%
WITH the 20% it's $30.22 each

I got my set yesterday...Im previewing some of the discs now. I don't understand why they had the rights for some artists music, but not others. Limp Bizkit's "My Way" is edited out of X-7. But XX still has Drowning Pool's "Step Up" and yet they don't use Godsmack's "Touche" on the same WM. The flipper disc idea is a good one. I like it. I had one floater in the set. WM XX. But it was with the WM XIX disc in perfect condition still. 21 wasn't scratched even though it was under the lid (Don't know why people were complaining about it getting scratched due to being under the lid). In case anyone was wondering, the video spicture slide show of all the WM's is on the 21 disc. Lots of editing throughout the set (to say the least). But it is acceptable for me since I have every WM (UNEDITED) in one form or another already anyway. My favorite thing about this set might just be how pretty the box looks to be honest. It was worth the wait for the price, NO DOUBT. And by the way, for those of you who were planning on selling The WrestleMania's you already have on DVD, Keep the orignal DVDs you already had, because there are alot of music edits and such from WM XX and 21. WrestleMania Rules!!!

Some things I've noticed so far (had my set for a few days)...some were probably already said, but oh well.
The themes for Demolition, Ricky Steamboat, Dusty Rhodes, and both songs that Koko B. Ware used (The Bird and Bird, Bird, Bird) have been replaced. Koko's new music is Piledriver, which just makes me laugh. The others are generic themes. Also, Jive Soul Bro is not anywhere on the set, although it sounds like the melody was remixed and speeded up to be used in it's place.
The Aretha Franklin song "Who's Zoomin' Who?" that was used to close WM III has been replaced by her rendition of America The Beautiful, performed earlier in the show.
Koko B. Ware's tights in the WM IV 6-man match have the WWF on the butt blurred out.
Any other questions, ask away....

Just watched WM III and I was annoyed that Ricky 'the Dragon' Steamboat's music is generic rather than the awesome Alan Parsons Project theme that he usually had (aka the Chicago Bulls opening music). Or did the APP theme for Ricky only happen after WM III and I just don't remember it?

Watched WM1, and it seemed pretty complete, except I think that Hogan and JYD's music was replaced with "Real American" and "Grab Them Cakes" when I believe it was still "Eye of the Tiger" and "Another One Bites the Dust" but I could be wrong about that. Quality of video was good.
Watched WM10, and everything seemed pretty intact, except for maybe one music cue but it escapes me which one.
Watched WM18. Hoo boy where do I begin. The blurring is rampant at this point, and they do a very good job localizing it, but it is everywhere, on the ref's shirts all over the ring. My big huge gigantic gripe here is for most of the event, the commentary is wayyy too low and difficult to hear. It is especially jarring during Hogan/Rock. No nWo theme, it is replaced.
More later.

I have a question of my own though: I have the Wrestlemania Collection VHS set with Wrestlemania's 1-13 on VHS. I was thinking of burning these to DVD as a companion to the Anthology set, mainly since the original theme music is there and there's no blurring or silencing mentions of WWF. But I was wondering if anyone who has seen any of the tapes from that set and the original Coliseum Home Video releases can tell me how they compare. I've heard that the Coliseum releases tended to be edited quite a bit to fit them onto an SP speed videotape.

I'd love to see a Survivor Series or Royal Rumble set like this.

So from the individual Wrestlemania releases (15 - 21), what features do they contain that aren't in this box? Most of those seem to be at least 2 DVD sets, so I am wondering what was cut from those. Is there a site that gives a good breakdown? I am interested in the Hall of Fame inductions, but I guess that the original one was available on an extra DVD from Wrestlemania XX (I think), but it won't be available in the box, and it is not available individually either, unlike the 2004 inductions.

you can still find OOP wrestling DVDs at wrestling sites, such as highspots.com (and I'm assuming some auction sites as well). I recently ordered the Hogan set from highspots which has been OOP for a while. It looks like they still have WM 18,19, 20, and 21.
