There way more of these Target exclusives than any other previous release. A few people here confirmed huge numbers.

Thanks. Yeah, I've been following the thread. No concerns here. I'd just rather pick up a copy before I start work on Tuesday rather than afterwards.

He's probably a Target employee, planning to "vanish" a few cases out of his stockroom. Hope he gets arrested if so.

Why is Target not even letting people preorder it? Did they forget this is 2017?

They didn't forget that it's the current year of our lorde 2017, they simply wish to sell a themed product like it would have been sold when the internet wasn't around. It's marketing bro.

Not just huge. Yuuuuuuuuuuge.

[Mr. Romberg]

Sounds great, but I think I'm going to hold out for a BD-only, non-VHS box edition in the hopeful future.

So do we know if its still only an in store release. Or is it for online shops too incl their international customers. Just becuse its on their site does not mean you can order it. I see many items with "only in stores"

[Caseyscott]

It says "shipping 10/17."

Yeah because you repeating it ad nauseam is suddenly going to make one appear.

OH LOOK! It worked!

Netflix just announced that there will be an international release coming out 10/18 and they'll ship the first copy out to mredman. It will be signed by the cast and crew and come with a free poster, T-shirt and lifetime supply of Eggo waffles.

Hey guys, someone went to the trouble of putting this elaborate fake ad for a "Stranger Things blu-ray at Target" in my newspaper this morning. Why would they do such a thing for a clearly fake release?

Yeah, there was a guy at Target today who wore a Target shirt and even acted like he worked there saying they had a bunch in the back ready to put out on Tuesday. Pretty sure he was lying.

I have a feeling this is something they are going to make exclusively available by actually going into the store so it increases foot traffic. Plus I'm sure they'll have it surrounded by other ST merch so people will be making lots of impulse buys. You just have to get to the store BEFORE (or at the same time) as the eBay vultures or it's likely you'll walk out with dick. For me, it's basically getting off my gig at 2 AM and then staying up, getting to TARGET at 7 and in the door at 8. It'll probably be like a teeny-tiny Black Friday...

Stores are going to be stocked full of them, I wouldn't worry about it. Also, I'm positive these will be sold online on Tuesday, as well as be available for in-store pick-up, etc..

Target in store pickup is a joke. Had nothing but issues with target

Anyone have hands on this yet and confirm if it's the episodes only or if there's any commentaries/extras?

Judging on the other Netflix bluray releases (marvel), it seems it will only be the episodes.. And after checking it out on the Target site, it looks to be 1 bluray and 1 DvD. We are looking at a very bare bones release of this show. If the exclusive packaging doesn't blow your nips off, I'd say take a pass on this one.. I highly doubt we will get a box set when all 3 seasons are done, just more of the same. I could be very wrong, but I'm probably not. I'm gonna grab this tomorrow, if my store has them and if I get there on time. Tomorrow is a big day for exclusives and 4k releases.

It's a 4-disc set. 2 Blu-rays and 2 DVDs. Target's wording is a little weird. They meant to say that it includes a Blu-ray and DVD copy of the season. Not 1 of each.

There's even a sticker on one of the pictures that you can click on (at Target.com) that confirms this.
