Hmm... I might buy the Office here instead of Best Buy for the first time. I don't really want a t-shirt, but "60 minutes of bonus cast footage and a notepad" sound pretty good

johnsun · 08-24-08, 01:52 PM

Hi. Is the transforming case the one with Optimus Prime or Megatron?
Thanks

GizmoDVD · 08-24-08, 01:57 PM

They actually mention BD-Live functions in the ad? That's a new marketing tactic I see. The HD DVD had the same features

Still a great disc.

I don't remember what mine is.

Probably Optimus Prime.

kstublen · 08-24-08, 03:00 PM

Target released a two-disc Transformers DVD that transformed into Optimus Prime back in 2007. It was a Target-only exclusive.

On September 2nd, there is a re-release of the two-disc Transformers DVD, only this time in a transforming Megatron package. However, this is not exclusive to Target and will be available at other stores. I know right now Best Buy has it on their site for preorder at $19.99.

Hope that clears it up for anyone.

orion1998_1 · 08-24-08, 03:26 PM

Blu-Ray High Definition Discs:

Transformers 2 Disc Special Edition w/BD-LIVE Features >>>> $27.99

no way 2 disc is only 27.99? i'll be there for another dip

ps thanks speedy!

asianxcore · 08-24-08, 03:31 PM

Thanks Speedy!

Nothing for me at Target that week.

That helps.

Speedy,

Is there a picture of the Office Season 4 Deluxe set? I just want to know if it has a different case from the regular edition. I remember last year that Target had an exclusive for Season 3 in a nice "Nifty Gifty" edition with a bonus disc AND pretty cool original case.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Unfortunately there is not.

It looks like to notepad is hsown with the Dunder Mifflin logo atop the pad.

rmick · 08-28-08, 03:44 PM

Will there be any deals on earlier seasons of The Office?

So far Circuit City seems to have the best deal with $19.99/season.

Yep...That's definitely different. Thanks for the link!

I'm a sucker for weird packaging.. Target too?? Ahh!!

dogmatica · 09-02-08, 09:12 AM

Target has a ton of Wii titles on clearance this week. I finally picked up Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and for only $24.98!

Of course, YMMV. For me, I noticed it was on clearance but out of stock at one Target. They sent me to another that said it had four in stock but they had nothing. That guy took pity on me and gave me an item number and phone numbers for other Targets showing the game in stock and I finally nabbed it. Best part? The first store I was at said their clearance price was $34.98.

Nice!

ASAPadam · 09-02-08, 09:17 AM

Got to Target right at opening to pick up the exclusive "Office" set. I got one of only two I saw on the shelf.
Anyway, here's what's inside the box (the Target exclusives are the bonus disc and the small sticky notepad):

mh4268 · 09-02-08, 12:24 PM

I only saw three office sets (about 9am) at my Target, doesn't mean there is not more in the back

Luther Heggs · 09-02-08, 12:39 PM

I was pawing throught the Target Office S4 boxes this morning trying to find one that wasn't beat up. Then I realized the marks and "dents" were just part of the packaging, duh.

mcfly · 09-02-08, 12:53 PM

I dunno about that Deluxe Set now.. how much more is it than the regular one? Does the bonus DVD make it worth it?

JorgeC · 09-02-08, 01:28 PM

anyone seen the Supernatural calendar? getting it at BB unless there's lots of shirtless pics of Dean...

It is about 7 dollars more. I'm watching the bonus disc right now. It is a Q&A session from the office convention in Scranton. Somewhat similar to last years bonus disc.

Just finished it. It is a fun disc, doubt I would ever watch it again though. It runs really close to an hour. None of the major cast member are in attendance (Michael, dwight, jim, pam and ryan) but what is funny the menu for disc five it only shows those characters. Not worth seven bucks imho. I'm not going to open the post its, and doubt I will read the script.

SendHelp · 09-02-08, 08:34 PM

i checked 2 targets today, both sold out of office-s4. but i could tell from the empty spots on the shelf they only put out 3-4 to begin with. maybe they'll bring more out in a few days.
