Great idea Cameron, it'll sure come in handy for me to keep track of purchases.

Here are 2 more I found:

Sesame Street Christmas Carol: 11/14/06

Christmas Classics Box Set
Includes these (20th Century Fox) movies:
Home Alone
A Christmas Carol
Jingle All The Way
Miracle on 34th St (remake)

Also I think the Ultimate Christmas Collection has Cricket on The Hearth which the pervious edition does not have.

Since the release date is 2 weeks before the release of the Home Alone SE, I imagine it'll include the current release.

According to DVDActive.com, that Fox set doesn't have Home Alone 2 on it. The movies are: Jingle All the Way, A Christmas Carol (George C. Scott), Home Alone Family Fun Edition, and Miracle on 34th Street (remake).

I'm not believing that, for a few reasons:
1.) The box set comes out 2 weeks before the reported release date for the HA SE
2.) The HA cover image on the box set matches the cover of the current release, not the SE (which can be found here)
3.) Nowhere on the box set cover art does it mention the "Family Fun Edition" of HA
4.) The person who wrote the article misspelled "Tales" twice, when he had the (properly-spelled) cover right there to look at - doesn't exactly give me confidence he's right about the SE being in there

I'll be getting Home Alone and Its A Wonderful Life And maybe The Grinch (1967), I don't know.
You can see a clip of How The Grinch Stole Christmas in Home Alone when Kevin is watching TV.

Aside from what looks like the addition of 1 story (Cricket on the Hearth?! WTF is that one?!), that is just a re-issue. Unless that movie has always been on there and I just never noticed. The last set DID have a CD. I bought it 2 years ago.

The only thing that looks different is the cardboard around the bottom.

New one:




Previous one (best pic I could find with the cardboard wrap-around):

I dont have the wrap-around on mine anymore, but mine did come with the cd so it looks like only the added story on this...
