Target Limited Edition Trilogies
My Target has two trilogies on the shelf with stickers that say "Target Exclusive Limited Edition" One was the Alien Trilogy and the other one was the Die Hard Trilogy. All three movies in each boxed set were housed in slim cases, and the price for both was $19.99 each.
They also had a Cheaper by the Dozen box that had the original Cheaper by the Dozen, the remake and Cheaper by the Dozen 2. That was also $19.99.

Just got back. Took forever and a year to find the darn things... they had them on a back aisle endcap by the boomboxes. 
Anyhoo, the only other one I saw that hasn't previously been mentioned in this thread is an Unrated American Pie Trilogy.
They threw in some preexisting trilogies as well, like Back to the Future and Austin Powers. I did go ahead and get the Die Hard ones, which will help with our limited shelf space by replacing the VHS versions, so thanks again OP!

Saw these too, was going to take some pics but red shirt guy was looking at me funny.
Alien set is labeled three movie set, not trilogy, so i guess thats how they bypass it.
Both Alien and Die had use the old artwork from the original sets on both sides, and the spine just shows small covers for each movie, not a long Logo/title. There was also a Man with No Name Trilogy, like the old MGM set, just in slim cases.
So in other words, pretty crappy looking.
