Cars 2 metal 'collectable case' (Best Buy exclusive) - Releases 10/2/11

[shinseiRomeo]

These seem to be 10 per store. They are not a steelbook, nor ironpack, nor metal pak, but a new fourth type of case.

So I guess the info I given was correct. I'll be picking it up on Sunday!

This was actually announced a couple of months back. I was told earlier today that it would be on sale this Sunday by an Associate. He wasn't sure that that was true so I'm guessing he checked then info. I think someone says he may work there or have a friend that works at Best Buy.

Looks like it! I can't wait to get my hands on the Cars 2 collective case next. It will go with my Cars 2 Die Cast collection nicely.

Just to verify that, merchandising was told to hold these until 10/2 as the case is in the ad. The actual shipper box is marked with a 10/2 date, only the back of the case shows 10/1.

I was at Best Buy earlier this morning picking up the remaining Sopranos DVDs I didn't have yet. So I asked a sales associate and the customer service people if they had the Pirates pre-sell case and they said check back in a week or two. So I came home, decided to call them and ask if they had Pirates based on the SKU and they said they did. So while I was on the line, I asked about Cars and they said they also had it and they said they'd hold them for me. So I gave them my last name, went back to the store (about 30 minutes away) and got my Pirates and my Cars 2 metal cases. My store still has like 10-12 more Lion Kings and I managed to grab that one a few weeks back.
