Snippet from review of The Pacific at High-Def Digest:

Detail, detail, detail! That's the first thing you'll notice about this near-flawless 1080p AVC-encoded transfer. 'The Pacific' looks near perfect presented on Blu-ray. Fine detail is some of the best I've ever seen. During close-ups on the actors every fleck of dirt, every smudge of mud can be seen in stunning clarity. The rigid texture of their uniforms pop off the screen. There's one astonishing scene in the very beginning of the series as the new Marines watch in the distance as Navy ships fight Japanese ships in the harbor. A bright fireball explodes, and it looks perfectly real and believable. The detail of this show is just breath-taking there's no way other to describe what you'll see when you purchase this set.

Seems this was on special on Amazon UK in March for pretty much the same shipped cost but missed it, so thought to post for anyone else that missed that as well.

Please note that it sometimes takes a couple of weeks for delivery (usually around 2 weeks in my experience)

Band of Brothers

  Its good, but if you get the choice to get Band of Brothers or this then go with BoB.

        Is it bad that I had to google what spendthrift meant?

    They both have good reviews and are supposed to be good in their own right I.e The Pacific focuses on the war and BoB on characters.

  Awesome deal.. Especially with me in it. lol. I played a waiter in the final season. But they dubbed over my actual voice. No idea why. I feel the new voice dubbing sounds like a complete nerd.

      The episode before "Going Home". I don't remember the name of the episode. The filming was in Melbourne back in 2008

    In the Melbourne pub?

      The set was made to look like a club or pub.. The shooting was at the film studios in Melbourne.
