There's a 3-page thread on it here, FYI:

The latest FB Post from SW:
My remix of Marillion's 1994 concept album Brave will be released as part of the second in a series of deluxe box set editions of the 8 albums the band made for EMI between 1982-1995. It will be available in 4CD/Blu-Ray and 5LP vinyl box set form, both issued by Parlophone / RHINO on 9th March. The CD/BD version includes both the original stereo mix, my new stereo and 5.1 mixes, and a complete live performance from Paris in April 1994 newly mixed by Michael Hunter. The vinyl set includes the new stereo mix and the Paris show recording.

Lucy just posted that Racket has received their shipment and will be shipping them next week. Ooh-err!
Totally looking forward to getting my sweaty palms on this one. I'm guessing it will arrive mid-March. Easily my favourite Marillion album.
Good news, everyone!

That vinyl set looks nice...
It does. It’s a shame that rating code thing had to go on the front of the Blu-Ray. When Fish released the deluxe Feast of Consequences set they made a certain number of copies without the code that could sell through Fish’s shop, but the retail copies had to have it. The Misplaced Childhood deluxe for some stupid reason had a big sticker on the front (instead of on the shrink wrap) that pulled off some of the ink.
As trivial as it sounds, that's good to know. Should I ever get around to buying the MC set, I'll remember not to try and remove that sticker.
A few years ago, there was a massive cock up when the manufacturers used far too much glue on the info sheet attached to the rear of the McCartney 'Band on The Run' super deluxe box...
My guess is that since Marillion and Fish were selling signed copies the manufacturer provided them with non-shrink wrapped copies, but they put the sticker on the front anyway! I think Racket removed the sticker, not me.
Oh well, the McCartney kerfuffel sounds much worse.
The 'way too much glue' thing was also an issue for the Brian Eno Vocal box.

I really like the autographed copy/picture of Brave. I might even frame it.
^ The prints were mailed separately. Mine just arrived today.
CaS is the only one they’ve said for sure will get a remix. It’s also probably the one I’ve listened to most over the years so I’ll notice changes the most. Well, Script and Fugazi I would too. Would definitely like these book editors of all three.
For me, Brave was probably the last one to get.
While I enjoy the 5.1-mix, it is in no way a revelation. MC was also a bit underwhelming (not surprisingly).
I know all of this Marillion stuff so inside out that I really don't need to buy it anymore.
