The first set is already out.

At least this won't be as expensive as the Beatles reissues.

Why would you buy them if you already have them? They're just re-issuing the same music, correct? There's nothing new and it hasen't been remastered or anything.

I think they've been remixed again and they have unreleased material/mixes on a second disk. Some selections are better than others, but I'm a sucker for unreleased Queen material. For instance, Queen II has a live track of White Queen (As it Began) from the 1976 Hyde Park concert.

Oh, the way I read it it just seemed like they were re-printing the same discs.

That would be much cheaper for me :)

I realize that article isn't very clear. The website layout makes it difficult to find the information on the new disks, too. I wound up going through iTunes to find the tracks on the first set of five reissues.
