No "regular box" listing in the CC ad... looking like an exclusive to me.

Both Best Buy and Circuit City have the standard version for $14.99 with separate exclusives (Sleeping Beauty alarm clock and iron-on decal, respectively).

Well looking at the actual Target ad on their site, they do have a separate picture for the "regular" box, but there are still no listings to be found anywhere online.

I guess we'll see what's on the shelf Tuesday morning when I stop in.

So is the regular dvd version of Sleeping Beauty that comes with the Blu-ray disc only at Target? Or does the dvd version come with all SB Blu releases?

Thanks!

TVShowsOnDVD had a item up today showing the regular box for Simpsons Season 11. It'll be available everywhere. My guess is that 20th Century Fox wants people to get the Krusty head and only made that image available to retailers to put in their ads.

^^^^

That is NOT cool at all. It's too late for me to cancel my Amazon pre-order now for the head version.

I guess no more Simpsons pre-orders for me.

I can confirm Target did have the regular boxes today as well, just as pictured.

The packaging is different though - it is no longer the plastic "book" type inserts. It's a thinner "accordian" type fold out with the discs hidden in sleeves. Not really too great as the discs have to be dragged out.

???? Sleeping Beauty DVD includes a sampler DVD which features highlights from the all-new Tinker Bell movie
Anyone pick this sampler disc up? Is it mostly fluff? What's the contents?
Thanks

Mostly fluff. One scene from the film (Tink trying to find a better talent than tinkering and exploring water talents), a song montage that may also be from the film, various character intros that may be snippets from the film, a game, and trailers for each of (1) the film, (2) the online Pixie Hollow fairy environment, and (3) a Nintendo DS game for Tinker Bell.

I am actually pretty pissed about the limited edition packaging. Basically they designed it so you WILL ruin your discs. The whole outside is made of plastic and the insert is nothing but cardboard. Not to mention the fact they didn't just slip them in the cardboard, they are in there so friggin' tight you almost rip the sleeve apart getting it out.

There's a thread on this in the DVD forum, but basically it appears the non-limited box is simply the same thing as the limited minus the Krusty outer shell. I have the box only version and it has the same lame sleeves.
