Walmart Box Set

-Same features as DVD and Blu Ray
-VUDU EXCLUSIVES:
     -The Stunts of the Hunger Games
     -Capitol Couture: The Styles of Panem 
-Comes with Mockingjay Pendant

Best Buy - $45 range
Unfortunately, it's not available to preorder online because there are a limited quantity of them (I believe the people at Lionsgate said around 40,000). It comes with both the DVDs AND Blu-Rays. No particular special features, but does come with cool acrylic Mockingjay which would probably look pretty sweet on your mantle.



Costco - We're guessing in the $50 dollar range
This fancy box set will be available at Costco! In addition to the movie, this comes with a District 12 arena bag, a Hunger Games bag clip, and a parachute necklace! Oo la la!

That's it for all the popular DVD box sets available for purchase! Choose wisely! Or, you know, buy them all.


One last thing! Be sure to check out Aldrin's vlog from our trip to Lionsgate! Watch Courtney do something silly at the 4:43 mark, and at 5:17 watch Arianna from DWTC and Courtney give a rundown on our recommended box set: Target!
