Sounds like a money grab to me.

Here we go again paying lots of money for a story we all know and clips of Elvis we saw millions of times. And finally finding out we get a few seconds unseen film. I might be wrong but in the 35 years that i'm a fan i've been fooled many times with such productions .

Only available in the USA and Canada, so fans outside the USA can not buy this. How to miss sales!!!!!!!!!

(1) "Cinecam footage of Elvis at Graceland"?

(2) "the crowning glory of any fan’s collection"?

What "World Spanning Concerts of the 70's"? does he mean "Aloha"?

I think I'll pass

Been looking for it online but haven't found it yet... I'll check our local Costco on the home form work and see if they're carrying it yet.

If they are life-size I'm in. I really don't want to spend my money on crap.

No, that was a 90-volume magazine set.

Wow, no stores in the south at all where EP was arguably most popular. Good move.

Someone needs to pick it up and tell us what is on the DVD's. That is a lot of DVD's.

(1) "Cinecam footage of Elvis at Graceland"?

(2) "the crowning glory of any fan’s collection"?

1 will probably be that same old black and white footage of Elvis at Graceland after arriving home from the army plus another incomplete, edited version of the welcome home press conference. If there is anything genuinely unseen on the DVD's I will be VERY surprised.

I just got a response to my question about price on ElvisInsiders.Com and it was stated the price is $79.99.

for that price i aint taking the risk. I'll wait till some reviews pop up because 80 bucks is a high risk for something we probably already have..

Maybe they are releasing some unreleased footage from "Elvis in concert"???!!! Oh no, I forgot, Elvis died in 1973, didn't he?

no that was when he went in the army

any one have this set yet ?would like to know what's on it before i invest the money ,maybe just another ripoff from EPE
containing nothing that we haven't seen before

containing nothing that we haven't seen before

That is a very likely scenario.
