This looks absolutely marvellous, was questioning whether or not to buy the new releases having already bought the episodes on the Contender releases but with everything going for these it has to be worth it.
You check the files, I'll check my memories.

I know your first comment was in jest, but it's important at this stage to stress that there are more extras still to be confirmed.

The artwork is one of the best Avengers DVD covers I have ever seen. Steed and Cathy looking very cool on a cool blue background.
