Yeah, I just saw this recently and found that the single Virgin Queen was pulled on Amazon but a double feature with Anne of the Indies (which I already own) is available, even on Ebay. Wonder if they "fixed" Queen for this double feature. A bit shy to order it and find out, though. The same...

Guess I'm still hoping for The Story of Ruth, Esther and the King and Francis of Assisi. Wonder if Germany or France might ever get those from Fox, as fans seem more "director-centric" there and might want these rare titles by Koster, Walsh and Curtiz. Bet these would look gorgeous in HD.
