Well someone must have been running around, collecting up those “Iron Man” retail exclusives. Paramount has decided to give those buying “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” the same types of incentives.

Circuit City shoppers will get two lithographs of concept art from the movie. Best Buy will have a gift set with a Sideshow Collectibles replica skull for your mantel, as well as $25 gift card to scarf up more Sideshow Collectibles stuff. Target will have special packaging in the shape of a hardcover book, with behind-the-scenes photos and other never-before-published pics. Kmart and Sears will offer four exclusive Lego posters—kind of like the game, except these will mimic the posters from each Indy film. Finally, Trans World will get “steelbook” packaging.

No love for Wal-Mart this time?

Which, if any, most intrigues you? Check out each of the store offerings in our slideshow.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” will be released on DVD and Blu-ray this Tuesday, October 14. The retail exclusives are only available with the 2-disc standard-def set or the Blu-ray version of the movie.
