Yeah, you are probably closer than my first price guess.  At first I was thinking $199.  But I'm hoping for only $150!  :)

Jeff Bond, who is writing the booklet for the project, has been responding to posts over on Trekmovie.com.  He says it will be about $200...ugh.  I want this so bad, but that is a lot to pay.  That would by a lot of bluray seasons of Trek.  I guess it's a reasonable per disk price (about $13) but hard to explain to my wife!

Any particular music people have always wanted to own from certain episodes?

Personally, I'd love the music from "Catspaw" when they first beam down and walk to the castle.

Shoot! $150 or anything over $100 is out of my price range. I haven't even got the Star Wars blu-rays yet!

Rico

Well, the price has been announced.  A bit steep at $224.98.  But I'm still going to try and get this.

It's the 46th anniversary of STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES!  And that makes this the perfect occasion to update all of you with some new information regarding our upcoming release of STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES SOUNDTRACK COLLECTION.

First off, thank you everybody for joining our mailing list and for helping us determine what the amount of the limited edition run will be.

We are now able to officially announce that this 15-CD box set will be released as a limited edition of 6000 units.

The retail price will be $224.98

We are still aiming for a late November 2012 release date and are currently on track to achieve that. You will be receiving further updates soon regarding the release date, content specifics and more!

Have a great weekend!

Rico, I had the closer box set price guess, does that mean I win the Treks in Sci Fi TOS box set prize??!! (hope-a hope-a).  Got the same notice today, wonder if they should ask for the 6000 people to re-indicate their interest; might drop a wee bit.

That is really too rich for my blood. If they cut that in half and then some for digital DLs, I'll consider getting it. But there is no way I'm buying a CD/iTunes set like that for $200+. Heck, even the Beatles Box set sells for $149.99.

There was a lot of work that went into digging up a lot of this music and remastering it, compiling it, etc.  More than just reissuing a box set of previous music already out there.  Just watch the video at the start of this thread to see some of what was done to pull all this together.  Obviously the price is steep and everyone has to decide for themselves if they want it or not.  Anyway, I'm still going to try and get myself a copy.  Never really thought anyone would pull something like this off.  A box set of basically all the TOS music done.  Awesome!   :metallica:

Join La-La Land Records as it marks its 10th anniversary with the release of the STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES SOUNDTRACK COLLECTION at the historic Egyptian Theater in Hollywood, CA on Dec 3rd, 2012, at 7:30pm.

We will celebrate with two classic TREK episodes, MIRROR, MIRROR and AMOK TIME on the BIG screen courtesy of CBS, followed by a special discussion with original series composer Gerald Fried and writer David Gerrold, hosted by Trek music writer and TOS soundtrack set co-producer Jeff Bond.

In updated news regarding the set itself – while a 100-page booklet was originally announced as part of the set, to best present the project's liner notes in the most informative, manageable and appealing manner possible, it was determined to divide the notes into a 24 page overview booklet, supplemented by three individual season-specific 33-page booklets (each of which will be housed within its corresponding clamshell case).

Rico

That would be cool!  Kenny should drop by that event.  I mean you get a free small popcorn and a soda too.  :)
