Wasn't this already out as a faux-exclusive somewhere?

It was supposed to be released as a Target exclusive last November, but it never actually came out. It has been, however, available as a region-free Blu-ray in the UK since October 2008. Dr. Svet Atanasov gave the picture quality 3.5 Bs.

Once again, I must wait for Warner to issue a disc without "wealth of memorabilia, including a new board game, collectible storyboard prints, a 1985 souvenir magazine..." It looks like Warner's patented Box of Overpriced Useless Junk edition will be the only one for now. I don't need all that crap. The Goonies R good enough for me.

I don't doubt that as with other WB releases, will be seeing a single disc version or a version without all the crap as either a Target, Best Buy or Wal-Mart exclusive.

With all that crap, they could at least have slipped in a copy of GREED somewhere.
Or THE DEVILS...
