I doubt it will be that expensive. It will probably be under $100, probably in the $89 range.

I dunno, it costs 80 bucks just to buy both of those crappy red/blue trilogy boxes at best buy right now.

That's because those are specialty niche titles. Like how Criterion charges $50 for a 2-disk DVD. I paid $90 for a 4-disk Ingmar Bergman set in 2003. The most popular franchise of all time won't cost that much. Blu Ray now is about what DVD was in 2003, so if a Saga boxset came out then I doubt it would have been more than 80 or 90 dollars. Godfather Blu Ray set is about $50, Matrix 4-film set is about $80, so is LOTR Blue-ray, and that's hitting the roof of what people will shell out for. We'll see how the Alien Anthology prices--6 films, at least 13 disks of material, and produced by FOX, comparable to the SW set. I'd be surprised if it was north of $90 though when it starts selling. And by the time the SW set hits, it will likely be 2011, when prices have gone down even more. But whatever. Even if its $120, they won't need the OOT to make it the fastest selling set in the format's history. It's more about PR. But Lucasfilm can afford to have bad PR because it doesn't impact sales, its more about whether the people in charge are comfortable with this.
