I got one. There were at least 10 on the shelf. They have the sticker on the front and the disc is very clearly in the skrinkwrap on the back.

They had tags up next to all the empty spaces stating there were shipping delays and to check back later in the week (this is Florida).
Can someone post a pic of the trading card?

But one Target did have a few of the Brothers and Sisters sets. Of the 4 sets, only one had the sticker for the bonus DVD.

I just got back from Wal-Mart to see. It looked the same to me.

Okay, I should clarify on the Blockbuster deal. There are two posters. One is the standard Death Proof poster, with a few different things. The second is one that features Kurt Russell. Poster might not be the right word. They're actually done in the tradition of lobby cards (so they're thicker, but still about the size of a mini-poster), and are actually cooler than I thought they'd be. Deals still the same, 4 bucks by themselves or 2 bucks if you buy or rent Death Proof. They'll be doing the same with Planet Terror next month.

does anyone know: if we have blockbuster total access and we trade in one of our discs to rent death proof, does that count as a rental which would allow us to purchase the poster for 2 bucks? don't really care to get the poster, but for those who want it and don't want to pay to rent the actual movie, it would be good to know.

I'm not sure what to do in regard to Family Guy. Target had pretty much similar extras in their volume 4 exclusive, but still managed to keep the same box design. What in the world are people supposed to do with what they are offerring for Vol. 5? It's a shame because I like the extras and there isn't a difference in price (I don't think).

What a dumb packaging design!

The second time, I thought I was smart when I cut the UPC from the DVD insert but they declined my rebate request.

I have gone to 4 different CCs and no luck finding "The Mist" preview DVD which is supposed to come w/ Death Proof.
If anyone can get one or two for me I'd be very grateful.

Well, with Target, it was a company wide shipping snafu. The exclusives will show up today or tomorrow I would imagine.
With CC, they are the most poorly managed company on the planet, often has had exclusive screw ups, so I just come to expect it from them.
BB and WM usually do ok w/ exclusives, occasionally underplanning like the WM Hot Fuzz WS vs FS problem.
Although you are right to some extent about ebay, there has been a growing presence of store exclusives up there lately.

I mean unless you put up a fuss, 9 out of 10 times you won't get said exclusive. I had to sit there and explain something about there own giveaways, 4 times. Twice in best buy, one time each in fye & target. They have no clue.
Company's should set up some type of mail away program as a back up in my opinion. Greedbay pirates don't help matters either.
