just wanted to say that the newboxset is NOT tight and stiff like the older one, the cases go in and out very easily

Rats. What is it with using thicker cases over there?

I prefer a tight box...

Looking at the two sets I prefer the slip box of the new set, that looks very nice but the individual cover artwork on the new release is bloody awful

I was interested in importing the Spider-Man trilogy to Australia as the UK release got superior packaging but I had heard a rumour that the Spider-Man 2 disc accidently had the headbutt scene removed although that cut had since been waived by the BBFC.

So has then headbutt been removed or is this indeed just a rumour?

Thanks in advance for any replies.

I'm pretty sure it's the old cut 'cut' of Spider-Man 2 on the disc, however Spider-Man 2.1 is uncut as it has slightly different editing in that scene.

Update: I think it's in the original trilogy set if that helps any but you'll lose out on the new special features!

Thanks for that. I already have the original trilogy release but was hoping to sell it off if the UK release was uncut.

Looks like I might have to hang onto it afterall.........

I can see it's £7.99 with Amazon at the moment, out of curiosity what's postage and packaging to Australia?

I think it's £3.50 flat rate and £1.50 for each additional item, or something very similar.

I miss the free postage option that Amazon offered us for a while.

That's about the same as US to UK orders. That postage always kills enthusiasm great offers!
