Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I picked up the sole copy here today along with:

$3/ea (WB unless otherwise noted)
Darkest Knight (Key DVD)
The Wild Bunch - 2D SE (slashed UPC)
Ninotchka
They Were Expendable
The Last Samurai - 2D
The Right Stuff - 2D SE
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within - 2D SE (Columbia)
Jesus Christ Superstar (Uni)
The Bonesnatcher (First Look)
Wife vs. Secretary
Annie Oakley
Doctor Faustus (Columbia)
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (FS - *but* this was filmed "open matte" and if this version is the unmasked negative print then I'm OK with it)
The Telegraph Trail
Tall in the Saddle
Kitty Foyle
Follow the Fleet (slim pack)
There was a Crooked Man... (slashed UPC)

$6/ea.
Joey - S1
The Scooby-Doo Collection

*still* no Bonds... not a big deal as I only need 3 to complete the series and they are very much the "lesser" titles...

If they don't stop with the new stuff I'll not have anything left for the upcoming DD sale! That could be good *or* bad... :)

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Forgot to mention that the store I visited had most of the previously mentioned sets (Dallas, ER, etc) and some new ones I had not seen

LA Lakers Box Set
NFL (not 1960-1970 and not Denver Broncos)
Jamie Foxx S1

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I believe that willy wonka was released in both widescreen and full screen

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Store nearest me (Red Bluff) started getting some of the other seasons in during the last 3 days - however, only 1-3 copies on most seasons of ER, Friends, Dallas, Wonder Woman Complete, WW S2, S3 and a few others. Others - Roots, Knots Landing, Super Friends v2, Animaniacs v2, etc - had 6-10+ copies of each title. The 1-3 titles went pretty fast(only a few odd seasons left of each series).

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Went back again...they just finished unloading the trailer so nothing will be put out until tomorrow or later. I did grab that New Scooby Doo Movies (the hour-long toons with the guest stars from the early 70's). $6 is a steal as Amazon wants $53 for it.

Oh, I checked those Superbowl sets again for those of you looking for the first set in the series and they didn't have that one. I'll keep a lookout for it (and all the other most wanted titles) and hookup/trade at cost. :D

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

After calling all the Big Lots in my area a few times in the last few weeks with no luck, I finally found one that just put out these sets this morning, so 6 hours later I was surprised to find the majority of what I wanted. I didn't know anything about a lot of these series, so I tried to grab 1 of most things except for a few such as Smallville S7 Blu-Ray and Wonder Woman Complete. There were 3 copies of each which I grabbed, but somehow the 3rd Wonder Woman Complete must've fallen out of my cart (fortunately I wasn't charged for it). I guess someone will be happy to find that.

I've never seen any of these series except for some Dukes of Hazzard, Flintstones, Friends, Roots, Scooby Doo, Smallville, and Wonder Woman. I'll have to read reviews to see if I want to keep, return, or trade the others.

Most Big Lots said they hadn't seen any of these sets yet. One said they put the stuff out this Monday and early Tuesday some guy bought cleaned them out (obviously to resell). One mentioned that they were supposed to be in an upcoming ad which if true means that other stores were putting them out early and weren't supposed to? Well, hopefully I'll have a few more shots at this.

I guess there will be a bunch of trading going on in the trading forums as people try to piece together complete series from various Big Lots. The only other options are eBay (which I hate) or trading into FYE or Blockbuster. I don't suppose anyone has checked which are the most valuable sets for trade-ins?

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Are the Scooby sets that are being sold all from the old series?

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Old and new.


Old:
Scooby Doo S1/2
Scooby Doo S3
New Scooby Doo Movies
Scooby Doo Collection 3-pack (Great Mystery, Winter Wonder Dog, Meets the Boo Brothers)

New:
Side by side two-packs of Scooby Doo movies
Scooby Doo 5-pack (Where My Mummmy, Monster of Mexico, Loch Ness Monster, Legend of the Vampire, Zombie Island)

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Cool, thanks for the info! :up:

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Correction: Scooby Doo Collection 3-pack contains the old episodes too.

Greatest Mysteries: contains episodes from Scooby Doo: Where Are You!
Winter Wonder Dog: contains episodes from The New Scooby Doo Mysteries, Scooby Doo: Where Are You!, and Scooby and Scrappy Doo.
Meets the Boo Brothers aired on tv in the 80's.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Today, I also saw a 2-pack of "A Pup Named Scooby-Doo" for $6.00.
I believe they were single discs with 4 episodes each.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Well you absolutely must keep and watch Animaniacs. As for the rest, whatever.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I've never seen Animaniacs....until tonight! I watched a few episodes on Youtube and I've been laughing my ass off! Gonna have to hit BL first thing in the morning and grab V1 & V2!

EDIT: Especially loved the parodies of Barney, Power Rangers, and Star Trek! LOL

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Thats nice to hear man. They truly are hilarious. Its got a great mix of classic cartoon slapstick, but with parodies and satire as well. Just very intelligently written humor.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Thanks for the correction. I did not know this. The artwork on the box is new animation, so I just assumed... Now I want to get this! I saw plenty of them yesterday. Hopefully they are still there...

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Do you recommend Pinky & The Brain as well? I watched a couple clips and thought they were good, but not as good as Animaniacs.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Yes, I picked this up myself. It's Volumes 3 and 4.

I also got:
Justice League Collection{Secret Orgins, Paridise Lost, Justice On Trail}
Superfriends: The Legendary Super Powers Show: The Complete Series



And they also have Scooby Doo S1/S2 now too? Awasome!

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Waitaminute... Waitaminute... Waitaminute... Waitaminute... You mean the Smallville S6 Blu I've been looking for in vain at BL is actually a HD-DVD version??
Waitaminute... Waitaminute... Waitaminute... Waitaminute... Has anybody else seen this? I have them all from when BL was selling them some months ago for $4 apiece. If the new batch (now $3 each, no less) have the new discs inside, I'm gonna demand an exchange!
:hairpull:

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I think Pinky is just as good. If I recall correctly, there were episodes of PATB mixed in during Animaniacs.

Both so good.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Have people been finding either of the Thundercats Season 2 sets? If so, I'll be on a Big Lots hunting spree every day trying to find them and Animaniacs V.3.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

The only other Bond movies I saw were "Die Another Day", "Tomorrow Never Dies" and "Otcopussy".

I own the first two already , and I don't think I could ever bring myself to own "Octopussy".

I don't know if they are all 2006 discs or I just hit major gold.

Re: Big Lots Part 4

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Found just about everything at a local store sans a few items (Greenville, SC) except what I wanted - Anamaniacs! Grrr. Gonna try another store today.

I would pick up the West Wing set, but I can't justify owning one season and then having to pay much more for the rest for that type of show.

I did pick up a copy of Eating Raoul, though. Seems like it would be a riot.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Did they have any of the smallville blurays there in Greenville or the wonder woman set? I'm gonna be passing through SC tomorrow and would stop by if it were worth it to me

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I did a round of the Greenville stores last weekend and none of them had any of the BDs.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Exactly why I haven't bought it. Is S2 the only West Wing showing up?

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

As Brent, the BDs were the few I didn't see at this particular store (Farrs Bridge near White Horse just south of Furman U). Also no Wonder Woman in this particular store.

Looks to be from mentions in this thread. Same for Six Feet Under Season 3 and others.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

clementon NJ ONLY had out
Life Goes On
OC season 2 (several copies)
nip/tuck
scooby doo (one copy)
dallas

thats it
totally bummed i couldnt get animaniacs

I found Season 3 at one store the other day.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I just saw The Living Daylights at BL and it was the 2007 version.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

FYI, Smallville Season 6 was available on both Blu-ray and HD DVD.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Grabbed these this morning:

Animaniacs V1
Pinky & The Brain V1 & V2
Gothika (2-D)

I'll go back again later today/this evening and see if anything new has been put out.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I did pick up a copy of Eating Raoul, though. Seems like it would be a riot.[/QUOTE]

It is a riot, a truly off-beat cult classic

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Has anyone seen any of the Friends box sets or "Ride the High Country" in any NC or SC Big Lots stores?

or any new shipments?


I have recently seen the following:

Smallville
OC
Dukes of Hazzard
few more other ones from back in the 80's I can't remember the titles

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Hey.
I was at the Richmond store today (7/9), so thought you might want to know they finally started putting out the box sets (when I checked last week, they told me they were in the back awaiting the 7/12 ad).

Anyway, there were no ER sets, so I guess you don't have to be in a huge hurry to check Richmond out. For anyone who cares, here's some of what I saw:

Falcon Crest S1 (don't think this one's been mentioned previously)
Six Feet Under S3
Dukes of Hazzard S5, S6
Superfriends volume 2
Scooby Doo Collection
The OC (no idea which season)
Life Goes On S1
Animaniacs
Pinky and the Brain
Joey S1
History of Rock-n-Roll
Nightmares/Dreamscapes
LA Lakers
West Wing (no idea which season)
Nip/Tuck S4
Smallville (one season DVD, one season BR)
Wonder Woman S2, S3, Collection
Roots 30th

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Question about the 'bonus disc' on the Wonder Woman Season 3 sets.

The sets I found don't have the sticker on the outside mentioning the bonus disc, but I thought I heard somwhere that some un-labeled sets still have that disc. Is there any way to tell if a sealed S3 set has the bonus disc enclosed without opening it? There were two sets at the Big Lots in Richmond, and despite all the 'feeling' I could do to both sides of the box, I couldn't feel an obvious 'lump.' Is the bonus disc sandwiched inside the folds of the digipack (i.e. making it virtually undetectable), or should I be able to tell without having to open the wrapper?

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I wonder if ay of the smallville sets will have the disc of the aquaman pilot that was never picked up as a series

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I still haven't found any more of the Thundercats 6 disc seasons. Is anyone seeing these still?

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Is this for real? Falcon Crest hasn't been released here in America yet--only overseas.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Maybe he meant Knots Landing?? :confused:
