Multi-region DVD

Note: "Fighting" has been digitally reproduced from an original VHS version, so the quality is not what is expected from HD or Blueray but it's far from grainy or fuzzy and although it is a little dated in its appearance, the content is as relevant today as it was then and as it always will be.
