Well one of the perks about working in retail is you can get to see a new flyer weeks in advance of the sale starting

As I went through I hit page 17 and on it big as life is an ad for the 2 pack Bumblebee set on sale for $15.99

It also states that other selected Transformers will be on sale


Then a few pages later on page 20 I came across another Transformer goody

This time it's the ad for the DVD

The regular DVD is priced at $15.99 and in the same ad it shows the transforming DVD case for $24.99 with comic

Now with the purchase of each...The Bumblebee set and the regular DVD you can get a $5 gift card It seems the transforming gift card is back because it's pictured in the ad also.

BUT it starts Tuesday for the giftcard so if you want that $5 giftcard you will have to wait till tuesday

EDIT:

Te sale is for next week I confirmed this with a store mgr who said the date of the Oct 24 th start was a misprint

The two-disc special edition is also available for pre-order at Target.com for $22.99. Would this be the Target exclusive or no?

Fine. But people should realize, aside from bragging rights, you don't actually get anything for being front paged. There is no cash reward or anything...

Wonder why they don't run this promotion next week when it actually comes out?

Is the transformable version coming out a week later?

Glad I did not buy the Evolutions pack when I saw it tonight.

There are way to many versions of this DVD. The only thing to do is have all my friends buy a different version so we can see all the extras. I hate this crap. Does any one know what versions have the metal case and if the walmart version has the extra disc with the special fetures?

Why wouldn't you pick it up? Just go back with your receipt the week of the sale, and they'll give you back the difference. I've bought so many TF's at Target in the past few weeks, you better bet if they are on sale that week I'll be going back with ALL of my receipts to get the difference back...

Doesn the Walmart one have the extras as well or is it just the movie and the dumb prequel?

Thanks for the news. Oddly surprised on the odd midweek start date. Can't believe some online places are charging $40.

At least Walmarts/Targets are starting to restock overall the regular deluxes. Walked up at a Walmart and saw the Concept Bumblebee. Was surprised that after I got one for myself and one for nephew, I quickly counted 6 left. Now that's how it should have been from the beginning.

Closest Target to me is a 2 hour drive away. I wish we had one closer...I really do, cuz I'm tired of Walmart.
