Best Buy has partnered with Rocket Collectibles to offer this hefty metal replica of Klaatu's menacing robot cohort Gort available nowhere else.

Renowned scientist Dr. Helen Benson (Jennifer Connelly) finds herself face to face with an alien called Klaatu (Keanu Reeves) who travels across the universe to warn of an impending global crisis. When forces beyond Helen's control treat the extraterrestrial as a hostile and deny his request to address the world's leaders, she and her estranged stepson Jacob (Jaden Smith) quickly discover the deadly ramifications of Klaatu's claim that he is "a friend to the Earth". Now Helen must find a way to convince the entity who was sent to destroy us that mankind is worth saving -- but it may be too late. The process has begun.

This deluxe special edition is packaged with three DVDs featuring extras not available with the Netflix or Blockbuster rental versions. Disc 1 contains the feature film plus deleted scenes, audio overlay commentary by screenwriter David Scarpa, still-shot galleries with concept art, storyboards, and production photos, as well as several featurettes including "Unleashing Gort", "Re-Imagining the Day", "The Day the Earth Was Green", and "Watching the Skies: In Search of Extraterrestrial Life". Disc 2 is a digital copy of the feature film already formatted for use on iPods and other portable media players (no time-consuming conversion necessary). Disc 3 contains the original classic 1951 version of the movie. The film's original theatrical release date was December 12, 2008. Running time is 1 hour 50 minutes. DVDs are region 1 (U.S. and Canada) format.
