Re: All DVD exclusives and freebies - 5/31/09 and ongoing
Another slight update to the continuing Planet Hulk exclusive hunt: In K-Mart yesterday I noticed a copy of the DVD version that had a different UPC sticker. It wasn't the normal glossy printed UPC like all the other copies in the stores, but had a stickered on UPC over the normal UPC spot. Now it was the same UPC # of course, and nothing on the packaging or slipcover indiscating anything special. But in my paranoid (?) mind/senses, it felt slightly heavier than the normal copies. Now, I hadn't previously heard anything about a K-mart exclusive on this, but iirc, they have had exclusives on Marvel comic DVD releases in the past. I bought it, but will probably return it unless someone comes up with something to entrap me on it. You have 90 days.
You're right, K-Mart has had previous exclusives in the Marvel direct-to-video animation series. Off the top of my head I can remember that Iron Man came with an iron-on patch, there may have been one or two others (that phantom Iron Man Animated Adventures exclusive mini-poster notwithstanding). I always check the weekly sales circular and did not see anything listed the week that Planet Hulk came out, but that doesn't mean that one couldn't exist. I'll check my local K-Mart when next I'm there and see if I can find anything out...

I'm almost certain that's the case. The figure on the far right is Guy Gardener and is a notorious pegwarmer. The Best Buy exclusive comes with the Hal Jordan figure in the center of that pic. It was recently given a regular release with a new deco based on the comics, but the one with the animated movie deco is unique to the DVD set. There are self entitled losers out there who would buy it,swap figures and return it.

No problem. I'm holding off for the better version myself in the Fall.

Curiously, how big is that card thingy? Hard to gauge scale from the photo. And which NJ Best Buy did you hit?
Neato! So is this the Wal-Mart sticker snausages was talking about?

Very cool, thanks for posting. Looks like this stuff isn't really announced in advance, you just sort of show up and are surprised by what they have for you. Hopefully I can convince myself that I don't really need any of these things, even though your photos make them look darn nifty...

I pretty much only shop at the Best Buy in Langhorne, P.A. If I have to shop in N.J., I go the the store in East Brunswick. A little farther for me than the store in West Windsor but I avoid that store like the plague!

No mention of the Iron Man 2 AC/DC soundtrack CD & DVD? Target includes $12 movie cash for Iron Man 2. FYE has exclusive packaging with a reprint of The Invincible Iron Man #1 with an AC/DC cover, a poster and some AC/DC stickers.

While I understand this has a DVD in it, it's being discussed in the music forum.

I'm starting a fund for new glasses for you Toyboat. The FYE info may be new (thanks! will add), but we've mentioned the Target thing a few times and it is in the weekly list.

Looks like it was released on 2/22/05, was that before we started tracking these things weekly? Let me search a bit.

Thanks! I've been putting together a list of the bonus discs I have and from where they have come from. This is one I don't know. Another is for the "2 Fast 2 Furious" movie. It is a "Making-of 2 Fast 2 Furious". Any idea?
I'll post the list of bonus discs I have in the bonus disc thread to started.

The 2005 exclusive threads are gone (hopefully archived?), and I have no memory of it. Google shows very little, just the disc you found in some auctions.
Anyone else with any memory of a Get Shorty bonus disc?

Are you sure there was something exclusive about the edition you saw at FYE? I can't post links to them since I'm well under the 30 posts needed to do so (after only six years!), but Amazon and at least a few other stores online are selling a collector's edition that sounds very similar to the one you described. If you search on "Iron Man 2 Collector's Edition" at Amazon, the edition I'm talking about should be the first thing that comes up.

Ah, I didn't see the Iron Man 2 soundtrack DVD in the weekly new release price comparison thread. Can I use the fund to buy DVDs instead?
Is the DVD on this one more DVD/film related? I guess I could open mine.....
And yes, you can move the fund's assets, but you'll have to contact the investment coordinator during business hours.

Thanks, taco5. I think you just saved me a trip out to FYE. I'm still not seeing anything exclusive about the copies at FYE. I do realize that there is a more widely available regular edition in smaller packaging without the comic and other stuff, but this looks identical to the collector's edition being sold elsewhere. Here's a direct paste from Amazon:
And, Trevor, thanks for the welcome and for all the work you put into maintaining this thread.
