I've been contemplating buying these for a few weeks now. Are the extras in PAL?

I bought these from an ebay seller named the_music_shop who ships from Australia. I checked all the discs to make sure the episodes played on my US PS3 and they do. I have not checked the extras but will tonight.

So does each season just have that plain black on the front of the BD case? I suppose all four seasons together contain every disc included in the US Complete series? And can you post a pic of the spines of just the BD cases all together?
Sorry to be asking a bunch of questions but I would much rather have BD cases rather than the Complete Series big huge thing and I like to know all about BDs when I get around to importing Blu-rays.
Thanks!

Yes the featurettes and deleted scenes appear to be SD and play fine in my US PS3. The BD cases are all black. Here's the pic of the spines and shot of one of the featurettes

Cool, thanks a bunch. I think those would look pretty decent with The Plan sitting at the end.

I hate those gargantuan Aussie age advisory tags. Did they design them with folks with 20:2000 vision in mind?

Have you compared the Australian BD content against the US BD Complete series?

Is there anything missing?

At the end of this link you'll find the specs for the US Complete series:

A nice way to own the series to be sure, but what about the miniseries and Razor, are they included?

Razor is included.

Edit
I'll go against the grain on this one, I prefer the US packaging.

The UK tin is my favourite -- when mine arrives next week, I'll post pics.

So, if I go Australian, in order to get the miniseries, I'll have to keep my Season 1 HD DVD?
