I have the Dances with wolves, the hulk set, the last vampire, the LOTR tin, the last vampire, and the 2 disc set of Memories of Murder,and the HK version of Hellsing with the two guns(which is probably the best box set out there right now) among many other region 1 LE's, do you think the non region1 dvds would sell on ebay, or is there another place to sell them. Thanks
does anyone know the price on the alien head set

My order for the Alien head set at amazonJP came to 24,740, or about USD235, shipping included (least expensive shipping, from experience very likely to get a complimentary upgrade to DHL because of weight and size). I ordered it within an hour of it becoming available.

Njl- Wish I had followed your lead At least I know now for next time that as soon as a cool product is released on Amazon.co.jp to order it there and then. I can always cancel it later.

That was my thought exactly. And also my thought for originally ordering both LE's of Nausicaa - I could always decide later which to cancel. Of course I kept both.

Edit:
Of course, the problem with getting in on all the cool box sets/LE's at preorder prices when you have this attitude is that, while it's easy to think you can always cancel, actually doing so, once it sells out before even released (Alien 25th/J, Kill Bill LE/J, Hero LE/J, Nausicaa figurine LE) is not, even if it's not a film you're really sure warrants an expesive LE.

ok guys
have seen Agents Secrets

In the movie, you see the life of special agents as it ought to be and not as fantasy dream it to be...
special agents are out of the laws and laws cannot protect them.
No feelings are allowed, no friends. There's a portal between normal life and their lives that you cannot cross. Once you're in, you cannot be out. Once you're out, you can never go back in.
You can't trust no one. You tell stories, risking your life.
You accomplish your mission, you don't even know why.
You die, you don't even know why and when.
Cassel in this movie is like a special agent. Very discreet and very powerful too.
Agents Secrets is a great movie (for my part)
I wish it will be release internationally one day
Cross your fingers

...Where can I find specs on this set. I have a friend who is going to Japan at the end of the month and I might have her pick this up for me while she is there, so any info would be great. Also, any other suggestions on discs for her to pick-up would be much appreciated.

babelfish translates the site as not available anymore if I'm reading it correctly. Worth an email to them if you are interested though

You should hurry, it was sold out at koreandvds one day after you could preorder it! I'm lucky that I didn't hesitate and placed my order immediately
