Here's an excerpt about the box for Vol 1



Comes with making of featurettes, TV spots, movie trailers and more. In addition, this version also offers a special "Okinawa" T-shirt , an unique "Hattori Hanzo" sword 1/10 scaled figure , a luxurious 24-page all-color booklet plus more! As the supply of this item is very limited, shop it right away to avoid future regrets!

What they fail to mention is that in addition to the cool swag, you're also getting the unaltered Japanese print. See, the MPAA in their wisdom have linked violence ratings directly to the amount of red blood in the film, and yes, they are quite specific that the blood must be red to count. This is why alien blood (and the blood in the Evil Dead films) is pretty well always black or green - it's an attempt to do an end run around the censors. Kill Bill is such a bloody film that it wouldn't have qualified for an R rating unless Tarantino did something about all that red, so rather than cut, he decolourized certain scenes. No such problem in Japan, so if you want to see it the way it was filmed, this is the way to go.

A lot from what I can find. The second box set seems easier to find and cheaper but I can't find a good price on a legit copy heh.
