Some of these will probably be available in Europe too...
DLvdE - Gielen, SWR SO, Kallisch, Jerusalem (Hanssler) - The missing piece in Gielen's excellent cycle
DLvdE - Ashkenazy, Sydney SO, Paasikivi, Skelton (Exton)
M5, Inbal, Czech PO (Exton) -- The first release of a planned cycle for Inbal and the Czech PO if what I've read is correct
Complete Live and Studio, Tennstedt, London PO: This one is bargain priced at around $35!!! It contains the studio cycle of M1-M9, plus DlvdE, M10 Adagio. It also includes three of his excellent commercial live releases with the LPO -- M5, M6, and M7. It appears that since the live M1 was with the Chicago SO, it is not included in the set.

Passikivi is very good on the Ashkenazy "DLvdE". FYI.

I had a really high expectation for the Inbal/CPO/Exton M5th. But the Japanese customers gave only 4 stars out of 5. :-[.
That said, I LOVE Inbal's recording of the work with FRSO on Denon.
It has the best combination of cogency, intensity, playing and sound.
