Close to £90 (excluding shipping). Pricey as expected, but I guess with the release date being close to the end of the year, it’s looking like this may well be a treat for Christmas 2022.

I might be able to save-up just enough pennies between now and November. Oh, who am I kidding? I'm buying it today.

Aye for that much money, I wish they would have included the fantastic soundtrack by Ryuichi Sakamoto

They did, actually.

One of the extras is the entire soundtrack set to concept art. Same as my 1990 Laserdisc. Since the CD is absurdly OOP (and incomplete! The CD has only tracks used in the film, while this has all the tracks Sakamoto composed, most of which were never used in the final film), the 1990 LD and now this 2022 UHD are the easiest ways to get the complete soundtrack.
