I have this set, and I'll tell you all about it. It is beautifully packaged, but ultimately not that fantastic. It contains a CD of "Lionheart"--the same CD you already have in your collection, no doubt. It has a white T-shirt, with the words "lots of love, Kate xxx" silk screened on the left breast. It has a pink-toned poster of Kate in the infamous leotard. The only real reason for buying the set is the book of photographs by Gerard Mankowitz. This book has lots of nice black and white images, along with a few color ones. It has different poses from the "Kate In A Box" session from TKI and several in the Lionheart suit. It has some gorgeous photos of Kate in the leotard, along with a blue leotard. It also has a couple of the ugliest pictures I've ever seen of Kate, from the "Lionheart" year. How someone with so expensive a camera can make such a beautiful woman look so hideous, I'll never know. The set also contains a postcard of Kate in the green leotard, which my ex-girlfriend tore neatly in half one night in a fit of manic depression while I was sleeping. It took me about a year to find out about it, and I was rather pissed off. I asked her about it, and she was quite apologetic and embarassed. Anyway, I paid $75 for mine when it first came out, and the only thing that makes it even slightly worth it is the book.
