For anyone wondering when the blu ray versions will arrive, I just saw a listing for them at play.com a uk dvd website.It says December 30th.So the region 1 versions are probably that same week.On a related note , from that same site just last week, I purchased the 2 disc 1989 special edition Batman, brand new and sealed, for a low price of 6.99 euros with free shipping !!!!!!Just in time, because a few days later, it went out of stock, glad to have it.
