Original Post by EvilMokey91:

Picked up 3 FuturePaks with this style artwork at Target today. Movies were Super 8, The Italian Job, and War of the Worlds. Can't find information online about these and not on their website.

I think I'm gonna have to seek help for Super 8 and War of the Worlds. Those look gorgeous and I love those films!



There's a Cloverfield out there with this art, too. Japan released a lot of titles with this circular artwork.

I visited a few Target stores on Sunday. This is hard work lol. I got Indy 3 and Top Gun. Top Gun rang up for $14.99. I noticed Top Gun has a pop effect which none of the other have. It's that same pop effect prevalent on Beauty & the Beast Zavvi that people talked about. Can anyone confirm?

I think it is random. My TG doesn't do it. But my ROTLA does. Maybe a random flaw. No biggie. Pops in, pops back out....
(None of my other Target Paramounts do it either.)

@C.C. 95 thanks
I'm still looking for Star Trek 1 & 2 and Indy 1 & 2
I don't think WWZ exists in this wave. I've been to 8 Target locations lol. Still a couple more to check out when I go to pickup JL Throne of Atlantis and Fury tomorrow.

No luck finding any Indys, Star Treks or WWZ but I have only checked 4 stores.

@Agent_DVD
It looks like WWZ and Trek 2 were never part of the Target wave. Trek 1 & Indys are elusive now. But when the wave started, there more A lot more Indys than the other titles. Every Target I went to had at least 4 or 5 ROTLA.
Indy 2 is super elusive. Never seen it.

Hey @C.C. 95 check out this youtube video showing the entire wave

Wow! Great find @Agent_DVD ! I wasn't 100% sure until now that the European wave was embossed! (All images up until now have been 'flat'). Awesome find!

How did I miss these dang it, I guess I'll check my target for a few I really don't need to own extra copies of Saving Private Ryan, MI4, Top Gun etc and what not but there is a 6 movies on there I don't own in steel plus they all have digital copies so very tempting.

But then again very costly dang it I hate huge waves and not that fan of the circular artwork.

$15 a piece is kind of a great price for what you are getting. I was one of the first to knock this wave when I found out about it. Bottom line is- these are freakin' awesome. Once you see one with your own eyes you will be pleasantly surprised. (I was not a fan of the circular artwork at first either. Now I really love them! They are like the 'Eric Draven's clock-tower-window' collection!) The embossing is the bomb, and the interior and rear images are well chosen. The worn and tattered paperback book design is totally unique.Everything is super glossy...They are a steal a $15 if you can track them down.
(These are one of the coolest stealth releases since the Netherland's DREDD metalpak, imo).

I'll have to look at target for sure I will want to get at the least the 6 I don't own in steel, I was at target this morning I didn't even know to look for these

Definitely check. They are usually in the $$15 AND UNDER section. They restock on Tuesday. I found 2 today that were not there before! Worth looking...

I still have not seen either Star Trek at any Target!

STAR TREK: INTO DARKNESS is not part of the American wave. It is part of the European wave...

These don't do anything for me

 

[C.C. 95]

These don't do anything for me

That's why it is nice that there are different versions of stuff out there. There are some who thought the 'Pop Art' series was great. (I did NOT). But, I was also one of the first to knock these, until I saw them with my own eyes. The embossing is killer. But, to each their own...

 

[Dano]

I think NovoBox realized there spines are lame so they have put a lot of effort into their embossed designs which IMO are a huge win and I am surprised they have not received more attention. If you display any of your Futurepak's from the front then the spine is no longer a focus. To me this wave are like little works of art and you really do need to see them in hand. I absolutely love Tin Tin.

I can see why you're the 'snarky assassin' CC95. I do get that some people might like them, but it was only a comment. If I can't make a 6 word post without someone ripping it apart I won't post again. So much for HDN being fun and friendly.

Minority Report
Saving Private Ryan
