Well, it looks to me like the only interesting exclusive is the Walmart Disc since it (possibly) extends the story. The rest looks like a lot of junk I'll eventually throw out. Even the steelbooks suck. The artwork on them looks like temp artwork.

Johnsun, Big Big Favor!
Once you obtain the Bestbuy Canada Exclusive please post it here! Thanks!
Your exclusive is entirely different compare to ours here in the US

Alittle disappointed it all about Megatron. I took the lithograph out hoping it would be double sided with Optimus Prime, but it was blank.. Does anything know if this was part of a series of Transformers lithographs?

Costco will likely have it for $20.89.

But I have to say, with the DVD market getting just the slightest tint of flatness with the likes of the High Def wars (among other reasons) .. these new release campaigns do add some fun back into mix. So it's alright ...
Exclusive releases will just about always sell out (win/win for the businesses) and there are will always be a group that will collect all of the them. Xage isn't just a member, he's the president of that particular organization
As for me .. rental first and then maybe the 2DSE SD ...

Got a call today from Suncoast where I ordered the Autobot Steelbook. They wanted to make sure I was coming in to pick it up Tuesday, and told me the store only got 16 Steelbooks (Said I was lucky to get one, etc...). I guess they wanted to make sure I was getting it, and if not give someone else a chance to pick it up. I ordered on September 29th.

This has got to be the most exclusives with any DVD ever released. I want the steelbook, but the closest FYE is 35 minutes away. I'll probably just get the 2 disc at Best Buy.

I too got to see the steelbook yesterday, the employee brought it out from the back yesterday and put a copy of my receipt along with my contact info on it. I convinced her to let me hold it, as though I would really try to run away with it or something. Anyway I was disappointed to see a few scratches on it, since the steelbook is black scratches are very noticecable, they show up as bright silver. Oh well, it WAS the last one in stock.

Gonna save my $23 for the Super Edt that will come in the box thing they are trying to save from Megatron.

^ seems kinda ridiculous to me. i'm in the same situation. when they called to let me know the item would be coming in tomorrow though, they made no mention that there were limited amounts of that i had to be in early. so if i go and they don't have one waiting for me, i'm gonna cause a scene. maybe. just to see what they do.
but seriously, what is the point of a pre-order if it doesn't guarantee you a copy? i would've assumed that for each pre-order, they would FOR SURE get a copy in for that person, and then ON TOP of that, they'd get the limited 6-8 extra. guess i'll find out tomorrow...
