Will the Target exclusive content be disc-based or an online deal?

So how does Best Buy do price matching before release? I can't believe this is going to be $39.99 (4K Steelbook) at release.
Do I understand correctly that the 4k/3D/Blu-ray/Digital is a BB exclusive, and there is a 3D/Blu-ray/Digital regular release too?

saw this on the plane last weekend. Not bad but not sure if it's something I want to own. I'll rent it first to see it on a bigger screen than the screen on the seatback of the plane.

I wanted the 3D/4k set, so I went to Best Buy on my lunch break. I guess it's a good thing I did. After my purchase, there looked to be only one left. For those who can't find it, my store had a Kong display on the other side of the media section.

I was at Target today and saw many copies of this on the shelf (regular BD, BD with the Target exclusive and the 4K UHD) $24.99 for the BD and $29.99 for the 4K UHD.
Thought long and hard, but decided to pass on it for now. I liked the movie a lot, but the BD is screaming to be $14.99 or less in about 1 month and even $9.99 or less by the Holidays.
I think I'm going to wait on this one. I know if I bought it now, I would regret it.

I had to jump on the 4K/3D steelbook from Best Buy in case it was limited. Picked it up over lunch.

No store pickup for the Best Buy exclusive unless if you want to drive to Brentwood.
Is this a hot and scarce item and everybody wants it or Best Buy just wants you to visit the store?
The Ebay scumbags are selling it for $50-$60.

Re: KONG:SKULL ISLAND - 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray
still available at mine. i really really debated this. had it in my hands and opted out. i had the regular 3D version already ordered from Amazon and only $5 difference and maybe could have sold off 4K disc since i am not upgrading for awhile, but just didn't bite. (i did hide it behind some unobvious discs, but doubt i will go back for it...)

Re: KONG:SKULL ISLAND - 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray
only saw 5 copies of the steelbook this morning (one of which I took). This was when they opened.
The steel for this definitely seemed sparser than for something like Dr Strange. Given the price point and 4K, I can understand if they make this truly limited.
----- just checked online. Both the location I went to this morning and another big store in the area are both out of them. Only one of three stores here has any left in stock.

I'm noticing that most of these 4K steelbooks are selling out quickly at the local stores, but pop up a week or two later on the site. I guess the physical stores get their stock first.

Re: KONG:SKULL ISLAND - 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray
I saw this was available to order and ordered one along with pre-order of GoTG 2.
I'm not into Steelbooks and don't have 4k yet, but for $5 more (than 3D) it was a no brainer.

Fortunately, they were able to send me a replacement . Even more fortunately, even though the second copy was also shipped that same way, it arrived unscathed and even cooler, the folks at Best Buy, knowing the situation and that I had already received a second copy for free, gave me a full refund for the first copy, so I got my undamaged one totally free. It's good to be a regular Steelbook collector at your local Best Buy, I guess.

Best of luck. As I mentioned in the Steelbook thread, here's how mine arrived last Saturday after being shipped between two pieces of cardboard:
