This is true: I have been to three Targets on different days, and two had the display, and the third very busy store surprisingly did not. I asked, and the person in charge of the DVD department didn't even know anything about the sale. So don't give up, try another Target or keep watching for these as they may yet appear. All of the Targets in our area are standard Targets.

I've seen these dvds at the bigger Target stores in the area. But oddly enough, all the Robocops I have found are not the steelbook edition.
I know it's a long shot, but I hope I can find one eventually. But at $5.50 a pop, I'll probably get the regular packaging Robo dvd anyway.

Most of these titles have been $3-5 over the last year at Wal-mart, Big Lots and Fry's but somehow All That Jazz, Raging Bull and Guys and Dolls keep eluding me. I scored a Raging Bull tonight so I'm down to All That Jazz and Guys and Dolls.

Must have been mostly Fry's, because verrrry few of those 2-discers have ever been that low at Wally, and only a couple were at Big Lots....

Though...the 2 disc of Huckabees? Really?!
Wow. Missed that one.
And the SE of All That Jazz was at Big Lots?
Sounds like another "Heroes Season 1" random error to me...unless I missed something.

My local Target had a whole section of these. Picked up the 2 disc Planet Of The Apes 35th Anniversary. Considered the single disc CE of The Omen (1976) but decided against buying, at least for now.

"Premier Collection" has nothing to do with anything. It's just a gimmick to tie them into a "series" when they're just existing releases. Some of them, like Midnight Cowboy, are pretty impressive. Some, like The Abyss, are not (considering there's a 2 disc version of that with an extended cut and all, and this is just the single disc).
They're just red slipsleeves over existing keepcases, or red-bordered coversheets rubber cemented to the front of an existing digipack.

the ones I bought today were mostly 2 disc sets that felt heavier then the rest of PC DVD's.
