Agree re the UK DVDs - I have them here in NZ (bought on the net from the UK)and they work just fine.
Re pricing of local releases - if the other Anderson releases are anything to go by, they will be very competitively priced. Complete Capt Scarlet and Joe 90 DVD sets are available at Whitculls for NZ$49.95. They are region 4 but much cheaper than I have seen the same sets for overseas.

Also, there is reportedly an Ausralian release of
UFO due out soon from Umbrella, who has already
released some reportedly impressive DVD sets from
the ITC library. Might be worth waiting for these
to come out, as they'll probably be priced more
appropriately for the Australian market than
importing the UK sets.
