Yes but the transfer is practically identical so I wouldn't bother paying double the price just to import from Germany. Actually Home Alone 2 costs alone the same the US double set costs and that's without shipping!

It all rests on how one chooses to define the term "practically identical"; the German and US releases have different video encodes.

Kind of takes the satisfaction out of getting the first film for £5, having to spend at least £12.40 to import sequel.
I'll probably order it in the new year.
