Target's Cover vs Standard Cover? - Blu-ray Forum

JimShaw · 09-30-2008, 02:45 AM

Would you choose Target's special Iron Man (Blu-Ray) case at $2.00 more vs the standard Iron Man case?

Red Hood · 09-30-2008, 02:48 AM

no, 2 dollars is just too much.

Save, save for more Blus.

First of all the Target case looks terrible and I think Target made a HUGE mistake for using that cover. That cover looks like something more for the kids and who adult would pick that up. It looks like a cheap plastic kid toy that I think is disrespecting Iron Man in EVERY way. This is Target:

. And this is what I will do to Target:

I would pay an extra $2 to not have that case.

I think the case looks terrible. Will have to see it in person to better judge it.

JimShaw · 09-30-2008, 07:00 PM

Alright, please don't hang me up by my feet.

I went to Target to pick up an Iron Man. Target is the only retailer near me that would have it. The other is Best Buy which is over 35 miles from me.

The only Blu they had was the "mask."

Do I or don't I? I went ahead and bought the "mask." The reason is I save a lot of gas $$$. Enough to pay for The Journey into the Center of the Earth sold by Family Video which I ordered for $9.99.

Me too. I actually hit Target this morning looking for The Thing and asked the Media Manager if she had any copies of Iron Man that were not the helmet case. She actually rolled her eyes and told me she wished they did. I think more people may pass than they may have considered.

slaizer2000 · 09-30-2008, 07:22 PM

I like the case. Not neccassarily because of the quality or the look. I just like it because it is different. I tend to like things that are unique or different as it makes you collection look more original and different than anyone elses.

would have been better if they made the helmet our of metal or something, but again i like the uniqueness factor.

But i would agree they should have had the regular blu-ray and the mask one so you could have a choice of which you prefer to have. Most people don't seem to care for the mask version.

What does the target cover look like?

Beast · 09-30-2008, 07:40 PM

I got the Target mask case.

I think it's really cool. And when the Batman one comes out for TDK, they'll look cool on display.

blackhawktraffic · 09-30-2008, 07:45 PM

Yeah and having to stock those piece of crap today was a big pain because the boxes felt so cheap that if you dropped one it would shatter. And compared to the Target Transforming Case that came out last year for Transformers, no one is really buying the 2 Disc Iron man case.

It's selling pretty well at my Target.

They only had a few left of the Blu-Ray version when I picked mine up at around noon.

And no, the boxes are not so cheap they'd shatter if you dropped them. In fact, the outer boxes are the exact same thing that was used on the Transforming Transformers Case.

GoBlu08 · 09-30-2008, 07:52 PM

No way would I have purchased that. That looks ridiculous.

E55 KEV · 09-30-2008, 08:06 PM

Yo, if you go to Target today or perhaps this week for the Iron Man BD you will not get a choice in cases. They are not selling the plain box BD yet.

Never heard so many people whine about something they don't want - as if someone is making them buy the damn head box.
