All store exclusives and freebies - 9/09/07 to 9/15/07

[Trevor]

These weekly threads are for the posting and discussion of that particular week's store exclusives and freebies.

These lists will likely be incomplete until Thursday or so, since DVDs are released on Tuesday and one of us needs to visit all the stores to confirm things.

Links to the master list and to the previous and next week's thread are below.

Volunteers needed: I regularly go to Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, and Walmart; but don't visit the other stores every week. If you work at or regularly go to the FYE/TWEC chains, Costco, Borders, K-mart/Sears, Barnes and Noble, Blockbuster, Hot Topic, or any other store that has DVD exclusives; I'd appreciate any updates you could give us.

Just to warn everyone that the free lithograph with FF preorder is a joke. It is a plain peice of paper. It is NOT a lithograph. It IS going to be returned.

i pre-ordered deathproof today and got the double-sized cardboard slipcover, but no poster. cashier said it will come with the dvd when released. that sound about right or did he just steal my poster?

we got ours already, but we typically give them out upon release. but the slipcovers were wicked limited so we gave them out to make sure none were mishandled. we got like 40 posters of each though.

[johnsun]

Does anyone have pics of this slipcover? Do you need to put any money down to get it, or just your name?
Thanks

$5 deposit towards purchase of DeathProof and Planet Terror, some stores may require one or both depending on how many covers they got. No pics, but it's hella cool imo.

[db27]

also got posters for the Superman Doomsday release. I apologize for posting these early, but I'd probably forget if I didn't post as I see them.

TWEC

Do you mind explaining what is on the slipcover? I'm sorry, I'm just trying to choose between this and the steelbooks...is it the DVD art for DEATH PROOF on one side and PLANET TERROR on the other? Is it the original DOUBLE FEATURE poster art? or something entirely new?

[Trevor]

I show them in the list every week as well. :)

I will provide a scan of both sides tomorrow night, after work around 10EST? It will be better than trying to explain it.

40 posters? only 40?!

please advise me on the best possible way to ensure i get mine as i expect these will not be oos-proof.

[shyguy1083]

quick question for clarification: is there ONE poster, with one movie on each side? or are there TWO double-sided posters? i was a bit confused by the wording db, but i guess i'll wait until you post pics. also, when i pre-order both movies, i get BOTH the slipcover and the poster(s), right?

i just wanna make sure when i pre-order that i get everything that comes with it. thanks in advance for the info!

I just came back from FYE and got the poster but was told that they did not have the slipcovers and that I would receive it when I came to pick up the DVD.
Is that normal?

[ShadowBoxer]

This is probably posted elsewere but next week Best Buy will have

Exclusive football towel with We Are Marshall
Photo Book with Smallville season 6 (Regular DVD only)
Death Proof steelbook
Superman Doomsday has an exclusive comic
WallStreet has a business card holder

There are a couple more I can't remember!

sure, some stores give them out day of, others prior to the release. day of is best to make sure people actually buy the dvd.

[db27]

i have pix of the posters, just need to upload them. will get to that asap.

also, Transformers Steelbook Exclusives at TWEC stores up for preorder at this point. 2 versions, one Autobot and one Decepticon same contents (2 disc SE)

[Trevor]

I just opened the thread for next week's releases all.

I didn't get out as much this week as usual, but it looks like we had a pretty light week. Did I miss listing anything in the above post #1?

[SnapOnTool]

Hey Trevor,
I'm usually on the slipcover thread so i apologize in advance if this is common knowledge, but is there a new thread link to an updated list of exclusives or has this thread pretty much "died on the vine"? Hope not, it's an awesome resource...
