Well, we've had a very, very cool steelbook for the first sequence (with a t-shirt) and a pretty standard steelbook for sequences 1 & 2 combined so I suppose a steelbook for the trilogy is fitting:-
Don't know how easy it is nowadays to pick up the brilliant original steelbook but the later release containing both sequences is dirt cheap atm.
Both films fully deserving of their place in horror film history IMO as unlike most modern easily forgettable horrors these make an impression (be it good or bad) and guaranteed not to be forgotten unlike another upcoming bit of Eureka fluff THE ENTITY for example.

For anyone interested in the
Special Features for Sequences One & Two or a bit about both parts there's this:-
"Since its release,
The Human Centipede (First Sequence) has become a worldwide cultural phenomenon. Inspired by a conversation over what punishment would be appropriate for convicted pedophiles, Tom Six's bizarre biological horror film has the distinction of being 100% medically accurate. The film went on to win more than 10 international awards including the awards for "Best Horror Film" and "Best Actor" at Fantastic Fest 2009, "Best Picture" at the 2009 Scream Fest and "Most Memorable Mutilation" at the 2010 Scream Awards.
The highly anticipated follow up,
The Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence) premiered in 2011 as the opening film at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas and made instant worldwide headlines when the BBFC banned the film outright in the UK claiming the film could potentially harm viewers. The controversy led to worldwide debates and major articles across the world press. After nearly four months of detailed discussion and debate, an agreement with the BBFC was reached and a viable cut of the film that did not compromise the level of horror, was released theatrically and on DVD and Blu-ray in the UK.
Note: All Monster Pictures releases are distributed by Eureka Entertainment.

No knowledge of the
Special Features on the third and Final Sequence as I've yet to pick up the Amaray but I believe it has:
- an alternative ending
- a 25 minute making-of documentary
. . . and I don't know what else.
