It seem like every store will be offering some sort of exclusive with the release of the Transformers Movie DVD. The latest store to be added to the list of places with exclusive is Best Buy Canada. Best Buy Canada has posted a listing which reveals that the store will be offering a DVD set that includes a 2 Disc widescreen release, a 32 page book, and a figurine. You can view the listing by clicking here.

but...whats the figurine? just some little mini toy or an actual action figure or what?

and its interesting how they dont have the same exclusive as futureshop seeing how best buy owns them and they usually have the same exclusives here in canada

I want to know the same thing. I wonder if the figurine is the Metalic Ratchet or Megatron we have seen.

The box set is only what $40? I doubt it would be something as big as a Voyager. I would guess a small re-colored legends figure.

Not that I realy care, but there's just been alot of US bashing lately, and would like to just return the sentament.

I won't have the exclusive. I'm boycotting Bestbuy after they gave me so much grief trying to use the warranty they sold me. After the pain they gave me when I wanted them to honour it, I was so mad I decided to never buy anything from them or Futureshop (which they own) again.

Oh well, it'll save me money anyway. I best the exclusive figure is small seeing as the box set is $32. Say the double DVD is $26.09 on their site, the $6CDN difference is probably a repaint legend or maybe a repaint basic.

Usually exclusives bother me due to the fact that all I have around me is a Walmart. This time I'm not bothered at all. All I want is the movie. I could care less what comes with it.

there are those new figure packs that have a miniature human along with the tf in them. what's to say it won't be the lame human figure that goes with it. i am having trouble believing they will have an actual tranformable tf in with the movie. we've been screwed one to many times with these exclusives as of late.

They gave out legends figures with the tf 86 movie release, so who's to say they don't have a limited version to go with this movie?

Don't get your hopes up. I'm pretty sure it's just one of those animated storyboard kind of deals. Where they put in voices and go from panel to panel liek reading a/the comic book.
