Christmas Story DVD...with Ralphie Bobblehead!?
I did a search for this but didn't come up with anything....
I went to Target this morning, went by the DVD's and saw something I had not heard about....
It was a shelf of specially packaged Christmas Story DVD's (the new one). It is a bigger box, about the size of the Indiana Jones Box but it has a big plastic window in the front which displays the DVD in the back of the package....and a small Ralphie Bobblehead standing in front of it (about 3 inches tall). The packaging was fairly flimsy and all of them had been bent up but I got the least damaged one (I had put off buying it until closer to Christmas since there weren't any real deals on it). It was the same $19.99 price as the regularly packaged ones.
Anybody else see this? I hadn't seen it mentioned anywhere.

saw the package tonight. the target by me only had three of them, and all the boxes were banged up. two of them were missing the bobbleheads, as thieves broke through the acetate windows. what is this world coming to, when people start stealing these things? anyway, wasn't impressed with the one bobblehead i saw, so i put it back.
