Fuzzy Muppets Season 2 Sightings Thread

I went to Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, Borders and Barnes & Nobles today, and none had the fuzzy box art.

Has anyone found this yet? Please post what stores seem to be carrying it.

I didn't see any in the Salem Best Buy on my way home tonight. Just the regular packaging on the new release table. I didn't look anywhere else though, so I didn't try very hard.

Fuzzy cover at Best Buy, Borders, and Newbury Comics in Boston. In fact, I didn't see any non-fuzzy covers.

Mine was fuzzy, got it at the jacksonville, NC Walmart


My only complaint is the caption/subtitles stop during the songs. Yet any jokes told during the songs are CC'd/subtitled.

I only received the fuzzy copies at work, and went to target and that was the only kind they had.

I didn't know it had a fuzzy case. Did the first season come with a fuzzy too? I think I've only seen the regular but I haven't looked that close. If so, I suppose the fuzzy is harder to find from the first season? If I pick up this fuzzy, I'll have to pick up the first fuzzy....

I've been to 3 Wal-Marts and Costco today. All had fuzzy.

Its not as fuzzy as Season 1 though, its almost hard to even tell its fuzzy through the shrinkwrap.

Borders in Tyson's Corner, VA had nothing but fuzzy. But I second what Snowmaker said, I had to really give it a good look through the plastic to make sure it was the fuzzy version. So maybe some of you guys who thought you saw non-fuzzy, actually saw fuzzy.

Now I'm just hoping the wait for Season 3 isn't as long as the wait for Season 2 was!

I didn't pick up Season One, but I'm very interested now. I've never seen a fuzzy case on the first season and I doubt they exist now, if they've gone to plastic only.

I preordered Season 2 and will plan to pick up Seasons 1 this week

Everywhere I went today had fuzzy, including Sam's. I had trouble finding a fuzzy season 1 on launch day so this was quite different. Took an early break at work to find one just in case.

Hm. Now I'm wondering if I did see it and disregarded it because I was looking for something more like Season 1. I rubbed them through the plastic and I could swear they were all smooth and flat.

God, I'm going to have to go back now, aren't I...

You can vaguely feel it, but if you look closely, you can see where the applied "fuzz" ends around the logo and Piggy's eyes.



Season 1 has 70's bush compared to Season 2.

I'm sure store employees found your behavior completely normal.

Best Buy in Macon, Ga had fuzzy as did Sam's Club and Wal-Mart. Movie Stop also had the fuzzy cover.

Your assessment is probably correct. My Costco had what I presume is the fuzzy version, but since your thread has me thinking now, I'll check a couple of other retailers to be sure.

are they REALLY fuzzy? i saw some today at best buy, and the cover seemed kinda fuzzy, but it wasn't like THICK fuzziness, but it wasn't just a slick cover, so i wasn't sure if that was supposed to be the fuzzy cover or not. anyone have a pic for clarification?
