Eighteen shorts, all in HD (of course), to be released on the 29th of this month:

£9.18 with free delivery is an absolute steal for those in the UK.

Had this on pre-order from Amazon UK but didn't notice the cheaper price on Network, thanks! Looks like a good chronological selection highlighting the diverse work of the studio. I suspect like the Animal Farm blu-ray it will be Region B locked though (just a warning to anyone here that doesn't have a region-free player).

Too bad this doesn't seem to be getting a U.S. release, though. As for importing it, it seems to be region-coded (B).

I'm surprised stuff like "Fantastic Planet" and "The Adventures of Prince Achmed" haven't seen a US Blu-ray release yet despite being already out in the UK for a while now. Both films I've mentioned even come with interesting bonus shorts from the featured director.
