I got an advance copy. There are a couple of early dog chow commercials with Rowlf and Baskerville. The best added feature is a black and white hour show made back in the late sixties with Jim Henson talking up the craft of puppetry. It was filmed in Hershey PA on the cheap for NET.

I don't have a Costco, but was able to order it just now from barnesandnoble.com for $20.68 using coupons from the thread in the bargains section.

Decent price but no guarantee you'll get the fuzzy cover.

Crap, I didn't think of that. I did order the last one online right away and got the fuzzy one, so hopefully it's OK, but I'm fine with the risk if it saves me $7 over buying it instore here.

Well can you please check your copy and confirm if the captions include the song lyrics this time?



Thanks,

I have an early copy and can confirm that the songs are subtitled.

Snowmaker 05-18-08 06:47 PM

Amazon has this listed at $25.99. So far that seems to be the best price I've seen.

CombatCraig 05-19-08 05:39 PM

I've been saving a CC gift card just for this. But seeing as how my CC blows and NEVER has any DVD's in stock I highly doubt they'll get it tomorrow (or at least the fuzzy box)

I ordered it from Amazon yesterday and it shipped today -- free shipping, too! I hope it's fuzzy.

It probably will be, but I'm not taking that risk. I'll hit Costco during lunch.

Quack 05-20-08 10:23 AM

Same here...hoping to hit either Best Buy or Wal-Mart, maybe even Circuit City which had it for a little cheaper I think.

PM'd CC at BB so I could use a RZ certificate.

^ That's a mouthful. :lol:

Quack 05-20-08 12:16 PM

Last time when I got Season 2, I had to peel back the plastic to make sure it was the felty cover, hoping I won't have to do it this time, but who knows...

But it wasn't in the CC ad.

$27.99 at Costco. Probably should have just ordered it from Amazon, but at least I have it NOW.

Costco did have a deal though where you save $10 instantly when you buy any 2 Muppet seasons. All three seasons were priced at $27.99.

Quack 05-20-08 12:32 PM

My bad, it was Target that had it for $29.99.

CombatCraig 05-20-08 01:31 PM

Of course my CC didn't have anything so I'll have to use the gift card some other time.

PM'd at BB (29.99 at Target) and got my fuzzy cover! If only my S1 was fuzzy :*(

Got mine from Amazon today and it was the fuzzy one.

I got my copy at Target today. I don't think I know who a lot of the guest stars are, except for Sylvester Stallone, Harry Belafonte, and Roy Rogers.

subzero9001 05-20-08 06:48 PM

Hey if no one needs there disney movie reward in it could you please PM it to me. Thanks

Kory 05-20-08 07:33 PM

I could use a code or two as well, although I don't know if we are legally allowed to ask for it on the board.
