Cool news :)

I`ve been waiting for a boxset to get them all at once 8)

Yeah, Chewie, that would be the best way of picking them all up. No doubt there will be one, probably at xmas, even if its just all the disc boxes in a themed cardboard box. But to wait that long...!

You`d be surprised how easy it is to wait... when you`re broke :p

Excellent news - I can hear my credit card quivering in my wallet at this very moment! ;)
