All store exclusives and freebies - 10/19/08 to 10/25/08

These weekly threads are for the posting and discussion of that particular week's store exclusives and freebies.

These lists will likely be incomplete until Thursday or so, since DVDs are released on Tuesday and one of us needs to visit all the stores to confirm things.

Links to the master list and to the previous and next week's thread are below.

Volunteers needed: I regularly go to Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, and Walmart; but don't visit the other stores every week. If you work at or regularly go to the FYE/TWEC chains, Costco, Borders, K-mart/Sears, Barnes and Noble, Blockbuster, Hot Topic, or any other store that has DVD exclusives; We'd appreciate any updates you could give us.

No, Just standard.


Picked up the following Exclusives,

Best Buy
Hulk Blu-ray w/ Litho: Ok, Nothing Great but loads better then the flimsy Iron-man Litho.

Family Guy w/ Litho Poster: First best buy claimed they never got them in, but had more luck at the 2nd BB. Very Nice, Big and colorful. Worth it.

All 6 of the james bond steelbooks: Very flimsy, but nice shiny steelbooks are hard to pass up.

Target

Hulk 3 disc SD w/ Breaking Wall Packaging: Very cool.

Family Guy w/ Script, Poster & Different Artwork: Very Cool as well.

Blockbuster

If you buy any of the hulk dvd's, whether it's the 1 disc, 3 disc or blu-ray you get a Hulk Comic Book Picture in a Black wooden frame with real glass Limited Numbered of 26,000. 2 different ones to choose from. One is Issue 102 of the Incredible Hulk and the Other is The Hulk battling The Abomination in Tales to Astonish Comic. Both really sharp looking. I picked both up.

I've got the Incredible Hulk 3-disc from Target. The first store I went to was sold out, so I had to go to another that had 2 left.

The 2nd disc does indeed have Target exclusive features according to the back of the box. It mentions 30 minutes of exclusive footage in addition to what's on the other 3-discers out there.

I don't understand though why the 2nd disc was put in a paper sleever instead of just put in the same case as the 1st disc (similar to the Iron Man mask). Seems like it would have been easier to me, and that's what I did as soon as I took it out of the package anyway.

Is Target carrying a version of the 3 disc with their bonus features, but without the brick wall packaging?

Zellers (Canada) has the 1 disc edition of The Hulk with a punching bag

The Blockbuster Canada 3D cover is the 1 disc edition (just card, not a slipcover), but it sells for $27.99, the 3 disc version sells next to it for $26.99..

Hulk Lithio

I was lucky enough to get my hands on one since they did not get that many to begin with. I'll post a pic later today/tonight. It is only the size of the DVD case itself. Someone please PM me as a reminder.

Hi. The one I got from Bestbuy Canada it larger than the DVD case and it matted in black.. I wonder if Canada and US got a slightly different lithograph. I'll also try to take a picture tonight..

NP.

I know what you mean. Seems like Best Buy is getting cheaper and cheaper on these things. The one they offered for "Iron Man" was not much better. At least this one is more rigid. The "IM" one was more like a piece of paper!

Happy hunting. I'm still on the list with BestBuy.com for one!
