Found the single disc edition of the movie at a Sanity store yesterday, and it was the first time I had seen it in stores. I think they must have just released it recently, as it it almost impossible to find any version of the Movie in stores now.
It is just the movie with a single commentary track to it. The cover/jacket is rather boring, with little on the movie itself other than a Radio Host comment on the plot (as the only plot info on the jacket) and very little imagery from the movie on the jacket. The front is the Optimus face on white background, similar to the EzyDVD tin case front.
Sanity's price was $20, (it was also in their 3 for $40 section), so expect other stores to have it for $20 or less as well.

My local Target had these for $14.99 last week. Do you think it's just the 1st disc of the previous 2-disc sets?

Looks like it. On the 2-disc edition, the commentary was the only extra feature listed on disc one. Everything else was on disc two.

Did it Have a Optimus or Megatron Mask with it...?
As apparently America are getting a re-release of the dvd versions
with the choices of

1 disc version with Optimus Prime or Megatron Mask
(Bumblebee Walmart Exclusive)

2 disc version w/Megatron transforming case

They are also supposed to be released on the same day as the Blu-ray version.....?:confused:

The Aussie single disc is different from the upcoming new release, has no mask and has been around for more than a month now. Hopefully we'll also get these versions with masks/transforming Megatron case after the Americans do.

Hopefully when this happens ....
There maybe some news about the Blu-ray release date in Australia? :confused:

I'm sure we'll get the Blu-ray version down the track, but no idea about the release date yet. Probably within a month after the American release?

The Aussie single disc edition that's been released has the following cover. Seen it at Target before for roughly $15:

Here hoping for news on that Blu-ray version......:D

I don't see any point in me buying another Dvd version, "Unless" it just to get just for the Dvd cover?:confused:

"This is as long it fits, as that Dvd cover from the EzyDVD collectors tin version is not that impressive and that o-ring really irritates me every time i have to slide it back on .....:mad:"

Odd, the single disk movie was available in NZ on release day back in ... November?

Only one you can find now, the steel case version (single disk), steel case (two disk), two disk and transforming two disk are all long gone.

I don't remember we got any single disc edition last year. You guys got a single disc steel case version? What did it look like? :p

Protect with Autobot symbol on one side, Destroy with Decepticon symbol on the other. With one disk inside. Mass release

Two disk was only at JB Hi Fi. Only have stores in Auckland so I had to call on a few mates.

So I guess the steel book is still the same as the 2 disc version, but with only 1 disc inside. Our steel book (2 disc) was available at JB Hi Fi, Sanity and other stores. The only store exclusive here was an extra tin can provided by Ezydvd.
