    I have been waiting for this for years! They were supposed to come out years ago but during the Sony and MGM merger they were thrown on the backburner and then FOX took over DVD distribution of the MGM library and then it was delayed again. The bogus part is that Region 2 has had these for awhile now. I'm so very happy, Leone is my favorite director!
