发帖数: 60932 | 1 Transformers: Dark of the Moon was released in theaters on June 29th, 2011,
earning over $351 million dollars domestically and over $1,123,000,000
BILLION worldwide, the second highest grossing movie of 2011. Featuring a $
195 million production budget, every penny shows on the screen.
When it was released on DVD and Blu-Ray on Sept. 30th 2011, it sold more
than 2,628,787 units, earning over $44 million in sales revenue. For those
of you who saw my New Release Thread on the original release of this movie
on DVD and Blu-Ray back in Sept. 2011 http://slickdeals.net/f/3360392-T...p=43346958 and wanted to wait for the 3D Ultimate Edition and all the special features to be released, this four disc set will be well worth the wait.
You saw that the previous release was for the no-frills, bare-bones release
with no special features. The DVD/Blu-Ray Combo Pack that was released
previously came with a $10 off coupon for the upcoming Ultimate Edition 3D
Blu-Ray Combo Pack (a picture of this coupon is below). If you have this
coupon and want to upgrade, if you were waiting for all the special features
to come out, or if you wanted to get the 3D Blu-Ray edition of this movie,
here is your chance.
Please note that if you have this $10 off coupon, it is only applicable to
in-store, brick and mortar purchases and not any purchases you make of this
movie online.
For a limited time, there is also a 7-Disc Limited Collector's Edition Blu-
ray Trilogy featuring each film in high definition, Transformers: Dark of
the Moon in high definition 3D, more than 10 hours of special features and a
plaque of movie images signed by director Michael Bay. This item is being
offered in a limited quantity. I will not list the special features, but it
is safe to presume that they are the same special features that were
released on Blu-Ray when each movie came out as they were released.
Packed with all of this and more, the Ultimate Edition of this movie, as
well as the Limited Edition Collector's Trilogy, are being released on DVD
and Blu-Ray this Tuesday, January 31st, 2012. Here are all the details:

Best Prices:
I did a price comparison on both the internet and this week's circulars with
Amazon.com, Best Buy, Bestbuy.com, Barnesandnoble.com, Buy.com, Costco.com
(no listings for some reason), DeepDiscountDVD.com, Frys.com, FYE, FYE.com,
Kmart.com/Sears.com (no listings I could find), Overstock.com, Target,
Target.com, Toys R Us, ToysRUs.com (no listings in their store flyer) and
Wal-mart.com. Unless otherwise noted or known by me, the prices are the same
in store and online at their respective websites. I noted shipping in the
price rankings because of the competition between stores, but I will only be
comparing base prices of the movie, unless shipping costs cannot be avoided
, like on Sears.com, where its $2.99 for EVERY movie order. Otherwise, I
will not factor shipping costs into the price rankings as a result.
Please note that with these price rankings, these prices are as current as I
am aware of. Wal-mart's in-store prices don't always match its website
prices, for example. As a result, these prices are as accurate as I can
verify from the internet and flyers from the newspaper, I don't put prices
in the rankings that I cannot verify. For example, Costco & Toys R Us will
presumably sell this movie, but there are no listings for it online nor in
this week's circular, so there is no price to rank. I also know from
experience that FYE's B&M store prices are the same as those on their
website, so I made one listing for both. In other words, these stores
reserve the right to change their prices and I might not know about it.
That's where the SD community can help each other out and if new or
different prices are verified, I will edit my post accordingly.
Here are the conclusions:
******************** ******************** ******************** **********
********** ******************** ****
1.) A Four Disc Ultimate Edition, 3D Blu-Ray Combo Pack
Complete price rankings:
First, BEST Price: Best Buy - $24.99
2nd: Walmart.com - $29.96 (free shipping)
3rd: Amazon.com - $29.99 (free shipping)
3rd: Target/Target.com - $29.99 (plus shipping costs on website)
4th: Overstock.com - $30.23 (plus shipping costs)
5th: DeepDiscountDVD.com - $33.99 (free shipping)
6th: Buy.com - $36.99 (free shipping)
7th: FYE/FYE.com - $38.69 (with Backstage Pass discount) (free shipping)
8th: FYE/FYE.com - $42.99 (without Backstage Pass discount) (free shipping)
9th: Barnesandnoble.com - $46.86 (free shipping)
If you factor in the use of the $10 upgrade coupon, the best price is still
at Best Buy, the B&M store, as the price drops from $24.99 to $14.99.
Please note there are no listings (currently) for BestBuy.com, Costco.com,
Frys.com, Toys R Us, ToysRUs.com, Kmart.com/Sears.com or for Target.com. I'
ll check back on Tuesday and make any updates or changes to this listing
then.

I included as much pertinent information on this new release that I could
find so everyone can make a more educated decision on whether to purchase
this movie or not.
And that is the end of this compilation, my first New Release Thread for the
year 2012.
:robot :Remember, don't underestimate Sam Witwicky just because he's only a
human being; he and his robot friends are more than meets the eye. You
kidnap his underwear-model girlfriend, he transforms into a soldier who will
do anything, including taking on Decepticons by himself, to just kick your
evil @$$.:r obot: |
