Criterion’s Massive Stanley Kubrick Box Set
Good god, The Complete Kubrick from Criterion.
Collected here for the first time are Kubrick’s thirteen features and three shorts, all restored in 4K, with their original soundtracks alongside the 5.1 mixes, restored and remastered; over twenty-five hours of interviews, documentaries, and behind-the-scenes materials; and deluxe packaging illustrated with rare photographs, artwork, and documents annotated by Kubrick himself, all housed in a singular box inspired by the director’s legendary archive.
Altogether it’s 30 discs, $480 if you pre-order, and it’ll be out in mid-October.
P.S. While it’s not a fancypants box set, the KDO tag page for Stanley Kubrick functions pretty well as “DVD extras” — and it’s free. (via df)

It will be half off at regular Barnes & Noble sale, so you should be able to get it for $300 in November. I've loved going through their Wes box set movie by movie and I hope to do the same with this one.
