I voted for the go get the one from Best Buy, I guess I'm an economical type of person, and I love having Disney mugs/cups, in favor of plushes (which IMO are a waste of space, unless it's a Voodoo Jiminy plush ! :twisted: :P) and CDs *whistles "Yo ho, a pirate's life for me* !

I want him too! I wonder how long I've got before the Wal-marts stop carrying DVDs packaged with him. I'm wondering that because in Luke's review, he mentions the Target bonus CD is only available this week.
The package says "limited time only" but doesn't specify how long it will be available. Walmart.com doesn't seem to say either. If you know for a fact you want this, the best bet is probably to get it ASAP, just to make sure you get one before supplies run out.

"Limited Time" is probably code for "While Supplies Lase". Either that, or another month or so.

To me, the plush seemed the coolest...

Target - a CD with a couple of original songs, some covers, and some random stuff not even really related to the movie... Meh.

Best Buy / Toys 'R' Us - a lenticular cup, or a water bottle... whoopee.

Walmart - a plush, that is approximately life size = AWESOMENESS!
It will fit with the various other plushes nicely: Apu (a bit smaller than actual size,) Thumper, the Dalmatian pups, and so on.

Heck, I even have the Gingerbread Man from Shrek, and one of the Madagascar penguins (although he is smaller than actual size...)

I think the actual size ones are kind of cool, like they came right out of the movie. Some of the others are OK, but not quite as neat, like King Louie, Baloo, and Horton (from Horton Hears a Who.)

I was able to get to Wal-mart on the 12th and buy the gift set. I agree with whoever said in another Pinocchio thread that the Jiminy plush is of excellent quality. 8)

I went to TRU today, and they were all marked 29.99. Or is it a 21.99 at the register thing?
The shopper said 21.99 for the Blue Ray, but the price on the DVD was 29.99. They charge you 21.99 at the Register!!!
