new movie poster in stores anywhere?

I am really looking to pick up the new movie poster and would like to find it locally if possible. I have usual array of shopping centers and malls as well as Targets and Walmarts but nobody seems to have it. Any ideas where I can get movie posters, particularly INdy 4 in a brick and mortar shop?

I am in the Cleveland/Canton area of Ohio if this helps any.

Thanks all.

Welcome!

Don't really think we'll see any of them in stores anytime soon. The closest Walmart will have will most likely be one of their custom montage posters they sell alongside the High School Musical / Hannah Montana / Spider-Man posters.

Places like FYE and Suncoast (if you still have one open near you) would be your best bet.

I don't think I've ever seen posters for sale at Target.

If stores like these do/did have them, they would be licensed reprints. That is, they are not originals, but they are not bootlegs...these are ok'd by studios for mass printings to be sold in stores such as these.

However, if you order from the Indy store or find an original on ebay, you will pay the same price that you would pay for a reprint, so there really is no point to buying from Suncoast.

Exactly. At times you can get a double sided poster from FYE / SC, which will do just fine in most cases, but you won't find the official official ones unless you go online or make nice with a theater manager who can give you one.

Wal-Mart has two posters, I picked them up yesterday.They were in a box called "Summer movie collection" right near the posters. They had a small version of the teaser and another of Mutt.

You can get the Official Theatrical poster at...

...Blockbuster. They're $12.99 and shrink wrapped to a full size cardboard backing.

FYI They are not the movie poster one-sheets. They are licensed repros.

One sheets versus repros? How do you tell?

Hey saw what you posted and how do you tell. I work for the company who produced these with Lucas for Blockbuster. It is to size and paper weight annnd approved by Lucas. If you could let me know how and why these differ I would honestly appreciate it.

Thanks
