Ah, I stand corrected. On another note: The "Not Actual Size" under the Crow fig worries me. Hope he's not HO scale. I assume he is the size he is in relation to the tin, but not to the cases- in the pic, the cases are the same height he is.

Then why mark Crow "Not Actual Size", and not the cases?

Then why mark Crow "Not Actual Size", and not the cases? Because people should know what size a thin pak will be?

If anyone is looking for a good price on the upcoming first Shout Factory boxed set and you happen to be a member of the Columbia House DVD Club, then you might want to place your preorder from them, as they currently have it priced at $41.97 plus S&H. You also might be able to take advantage of special deals and promotions that the club offers like I did last week when they called me and informed me of their latest deal. In addition to earning more Fun Cash, by ordering the set and two other titles, I am now entitled to three free DVD titles in an order placed after all the titles in my original order ship. If you are a member and want to mail in your Columbia House DVD Club order on the order forms that come to you in your mailbox, the Shout Factory Mystery Science Theater 3000 20th Anniversary Edition boxed set is listed as Columbia House DVD Club Selection # 4972006. Also, BestBuy.com has the set listed for preorder priced at $44.99. www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=17147437&st=mystery+science+theater&type=product&id=1894398I think that's a decent price if you prefer to wait until the day the set is released (Provided that your local Best Buy carries the set in stock by checking the website's in-store availability option) in order to obtain it immediately. However, Best Buy has been known to have price discrepencies between their website prices and in-store prices, but they wil provide a pricematch on their website price in-store (Provideed you show them prood, i.e. a printed copy of the title webpage listing). I wanted to mention that DeepDiscount.com had a listing for the set earlier this morning, but it seems that they have now taken it down. Maybe this is only temporary. As we all know, DeepDiscount runs regular 20% off coupon code sales in June and November, so it might be advisable to wait until the upcoming November sale is active so you can save even more. After all, the new set comes out just before the sale kicks off.

That was scenario for me with Volume 10, bought it in store and had to prove guide them through their website to get the web price. Worked out well though.

I am very excited about this set. For one thing because there has not been a MST3K release in quite awhile. Although I do not have as strong dislike/disappointment with the way Rhino released their dvd's etc... I was never one to care about box art and things like that. I have all of the sets and everyone has played just fine so I am happy with that. Although the lack of extras on some was a disappointment. That said I think Shout Factory's first release is a solid one. I like all of the episodes and my old VHS copy of The First Spaceship on Venus has seen it's better days. I lost my copy of Werewolf in the the vast unknown so I will have to wait until it's release Oct 28th to watch that one again. I just hope the new releases are more frequent.

I found another good online deal for this DVD set that's only valid today and tomorrow only (Monday September 15-Tuesday September 16). If you are a Borders Rewards member, go the following link (or copy and paste)to pre-order the new Shout Factory set: www.borders.com/online/store/TitleDetail?sku=826663109238After preodering a copy, proceed to the checkout (you don't need to have already created a Borders.com online account to continue). Make sure that the email address you enter on the order or already have on record with your account matches the email address you currently associate with your Borders Rewards membership. During the checkout process, enter your Borders Reward membership number when asked and add it to the order. Then use this promotional code: SAJ5110E (By the way, that's a zero in the code) You will get a 40% discount off the Borders price of $60.99 after applying the code, or $36.60. You can also get free shipping or have the DVD set shipped to a local Borders store for in-store pickup on the release date I think. Even after any applicable sales taxes, I still think that it's a good deal (especially if you apply any Borders Bucks you've saved up on your membership to the order).

These are probably very dumb questions, but I'll ask anyway because I'm really curious.
Will the 20th Anniversary set be only released in the tin box with all of the goodies (miniature Crow, Lobby Cards, etc)? Or, will Shout put out a seperate release that just contains the discs in a cardboard box?
Also, has Shout said if all of their releases will be in a tin box, etc?
Thanks

Brian Ward said we shouldn't expect a tin box with every release. Also, Amazon refers to the tin as a limited edition which could mean there will be a reprint without those extras later. Ward clears some thing up in this thread. www.shoutfactory.com/community/886/thread.aspx

Looks like a really great set. Just a little over one month to go, starting to get real excited now
