While I’m all for limited edition collectible packaging, the home video release of “Iron Man” is way, way too much. After all, many home video enthusiasts are collectors, and no one likes having too many options.

Which is what Marvel and

Paramount have done.

In case you haven’t heard, there are 8 different retail exclusives for “Iron Man,” and they’re all located at different stores. So while one store might have the lowest price, it might not have the cool exclusive you want.

Since many of you probably haven’t seen or heard about these items, what’s below are the exclusive items and what store carries it. Good luck deciding.
