I can't believe the possible news hasn't made it over here yet, but,
from a post at a.m.s. by dmkb:

A poster over at the HomeTheater Forum posted the following which
would
suggest that the box is ready to go:
Quote [from Michael Agee]:
We are ready to accept orders. We originally priced this at $399 in a
shoebox-sized epic similar to the thing put out in the UK a few years
ago. (Of course, the key difference is that you can actually SEE our
masters.) Someone asked the very sensible question--"do we really
need
ANOTHER shoebox full of DVD's? For which the customer has to pay?" I
decided, "No", and compressed everything onto twelve double-layered
discs, designed them into a "slim pac" design with a beautiful color
booklet displaying all the L&H one sheets full page, and retailing it
for $199.99--two hundred dollars (half of our originally planned
price).
With the dollar in the shitcan, those in other countries will have a
real steal on their hands.
A "Paypal" ordering page is going up in a week or so with a
pre-publication discount price of $180--AND the first 50 to order
right
now will immediately be sent a set of the beautiful Al Herschfeld
lithographs, the one sheets on BIG BUSINESS and DOUBLE WHOOPEE,
printed
at a very frameable 16x20.
Our publication date is set for December 15.
Of course, we accept orders by mail as well.

....same as it has been for twenty years. This has taken a very long
time because I did not, frankly, expect to have an apparent stroke
and
the resulting months of difficulty (which turned out, thank God, to be
a
really terrible reaction to the awful drugs they gave me. I've never
drank or even smoked a cigarette, much less done drugs, so I was
really
susceptible to this crap.) Now, I'm fine and eager to have this
monkey,
at last, off my back.
