Would be nice if there was a way to get the original with the damn mono track without this big-ass expensive set.

And the better versions of the Miramax titles. Personally I think people should be patient. While a full box may never happen again, these all are ripe to be released again separately. Which is actually better for those with no interest in owning the duds in the series.

Finally bit the bullet and picked up the 15-Disc LE for around $100 on Ebay.
Brand New!

I really doubt it gets that low that fast. It might drop to $85-$100 after some time, but even for it to drop that far I don't see happening too soon. This isn't some obscure franchise but one of the biggest slasher series of all time. That coupled with it being a Scream Factory release my guess is it stays high for a while.

Re: Halloween: The Complete Collection is coming to blu-ray
It's a great set and now I do wonder if the exclusive stuff in this set will ever be released separately. The last few weeks would have been the perfect time, for example, to release those Miramax titles in a smaller set or individually. Or to release yet another deluxe set of the original. This time with all the first movie extras in the set and the true mono mix (for those that want that).
I also always toy with the idea of selling my copy of the set since it has so many duds and the better movies can be had individually. It would be 100% profit since I'm one of the lucky few that had my order cancelled by TCM, but still had it shipped to me anyway. One of the reasons I have been really hoping they would release the better version of H20 separately. I have no interest in the shitty double feature release of H20 and Resurrection.

Miramax did release the Producers Cut of H6 separately but without the extra content that Shout Factory produced for the box set, so it's safe to say that it won't be released separately. If they did release the other Halloween movies, it's safe to say it will be without the special features.
The 10 disc collection is on sale for 40 bucks on Amazon and Best Buy right now. This is the cheapest alternative to collect most of the movies and to get the original film with the Mono track.

Re: Halloween: The Complete Collection is coming to blu-ray
Buying the "Halloween" deluxe 15 disc set via a marketplace seller at Barnes & Noble and finding the "Friday the 13th" complete film collection at Best Buy last week have been the highlight of this year's Halloween season for me. I was no longer collecting when both sets were originally released and I am so happy I was able to grab them at such reasonable prices—especially considering where those prices are likely to go in the next couple of years. I'm not sure it's wise to gamble on these types of sets being re-released in the future. They are costly to assemble and getting all the various rights holders together can be a tricky proposition. Hell, I'm praying some of the titles from the "Vincent Price Collection Vol I" are re-released. I would jump at the chance to own a special release Of the two Dr. Phibes films in an elaborate set similar to what Arrow did in the UK.

You know, I thought about doing that as well to help defray some of the cost. But I am also building a nice UV library for family and friends to access via VUDU. And it will be there for my convenience in the future.

Got my set in the mail yesterday! One of the corners is slightly dented but the corrected Halloween 4 disc is in there!

Re: Halloween: The Complete Collection is coming to blu-ray
So I never got around to buying the LE set, and don't really want to pay the crazy prices to try and get it now. I don't really care about the TV Cuts, the extra disc for the Rob Zombie remake, or the 07' Halloween disc. So I thought I might just get the 10 disc set, and Halloween 6 producer's cut that Lionsgate put out. Since that would be the cheapest way to go now. Does anyone know if the Halloween 4 disc included is the correct disc without the audio problem?
