Just came back from my local BEST BUY and found none there. :frowning:
Time to head over to CIRCUIT CITY...

 

[David Lambert]

Got mine!!!!
CC had about 10 or so copies. Cool deal.
As for BB not having them: they are advertising in BB's weekly circular!!! Pg 7, center of the bottom. BB is supposed to have stock on all of that stuff.
It's probably either in the back, or in a place you don't expect. I would try these BB section, in order:

• New Releases/Best Sellers
  Anime'
  Family
  Box Sets (or Collector Sets)
  TV DVDs
  Science Fiction

Gotta be in one of those...

 

[Tim Hess]

They had season one and two at the local BB, but I couldn't justify it on top of buying Ice Age, MIB/MIIB AND clash of the titans

 

[David Lambert]

I stopped in at BB on the way home to check the price of a gift I'm contemplating, and while in there checked where Transformers S2, Pt 1 was. It was in Anime', just like I thought. A whole shelf of it!

 

[JohnS]

JUst got mine at CC,
just a warning for future CC buyers.
Even though the DVD says $49.99, it rings up $39.99
Great set, going to break it open tonight, with the first episode- Autobot Spike

 

[David Lambert]

JohnS! I said CC had it for $39.99 both in post #4 of this thread, AND in my Weekly Roundup!!! :p)
But I'm jealous you're cracking it open tonight. The missus has decreed this will be a Christmas gift for the boy... :frowning:
(I think she forgets that if it wasn't for me, he wouldn't have discovered the show! Oh, well...I can wait. I suppose.)

 

[Joe6pack99]

Well got mine there were 5 shoved in the anime section all dent up kinda pissed me off. I picked the best one available and ran home. Watched a few shows so I am happy. Now what I want to knwo is how long we are going to have to wait to Season 2 box set 2 comes out. I sure hope not long.

 

[Tim_Speicher]

Preorderd this on Amazon on Sept. 13th. Ended up scoring it for $25.71 after STL, coupon, and $5 GC. Looks like it may have shipped on Monday... Hopefully, I get it by Friday

 

[Daniel Kikin]

Also preordered from Amazon. I paid $44.96 (w/ free shipping), arrived yesterday.

 

[Jerry Gracia]

Picked mine up at CIRCUIT CITY for $39.99
It's advertised at that price in their ad in my area.

 

[Eric Fisher]

picked up mine for $34.99 at Costco

Why don't you head over to the Weekly Roundup thread and post that info? Use the link in my sig to get to the Coupons & Bargains area, and then look for the one with 11/26 in the subject.
Good price!

Just watched episode: Autobot Spike
never seen it before..whole lot of fun.
they also add an animated version of Frankenstein that lasts a few seconds..pretty funny.
Menus have changed, I like it..not too bad.
Going to try and crack another couple episdoes tonight.
I really like it now, since we now have about 40 episdoes to watch.
I plan on doing a huge Transformers marathon one day.
But afarid it might take longer than a day
I was thinking about taking those animated cells(we now have 4) and framing each one seperatly, but framing it in a light case.
You might have seen those animated light frames at the Diseny store or WB store.
What do you think??

 

[Daniel Kikin]

Just curious, does every box have the same two cels or do they put different ones in each box? My S1 cels are Starscream with Skywarp, and Rumble (or Frenzy) and my S2:V1 cels are Megatron and Ravage.

 

[David Lambert]

The cels are supposed to be the same in every box, just like w/S1.

 

[Daniel Kikin]

Thanks David. Interesting then that all the cels feature only Decepticons.
