Supposedly I checked Target's website and they have RoC figures in stock. I talked the first time with an older woman in toys that wasn't quite following me, so I called back and talked to a different person and they said yes they did have them in stock, aisle D42 for the DCPI # I gave them. Going to check during lunch today see what's up.

What is the DCPI number, just out of curiosity? I must have missed it somewhere.

Update, they have the pegs set up (very large section, probably 10-12 pegs for singles), and I talked with the toy manager. She said they did indeed have them in back but cannot sell them legally until this Sunday. She said they'd gotten a memo yesterday to ignore the street date on the box and that the new date was (for them) July 5th.

They currently had in the backroom movie figures 'A' and Alpha-class vehicles.

Yeah July 5th is the day for Target and it seems like July 4th is TRU's. As I posted elsewhere a small Target here in Indy has 84 figures in the back. We should be swimming in the stuff.

July 5th?!? Sonova-- the 4th is pretty much my only window... gah.

Well...actually...I might have a chance on the 7th. Hmmm

Well, I've got a Target in Nashua, NH and Methuen, MA showing as having these available... of course they're 80 miles away...

I was contacted on Hisstank by a fellow Bloomington resident saying Target had them for sale on the floor. I told him for the last two days I'd hounded the toy manager and GM and both said they weren't selling them before July 5th. Well, he said he got SS and SE and that they had tons of figures out as well as vehicles. So I hopped in my car. Long story short, I now have SS, SE, two different vipers, and the Steel Crusher!

lucky, I'm 0-1

Fishers hasn't even set their pegs yet. I assume we will set them tonight.

So went back to Target this morning and they'd pulled ALL RoC figures. I talked with whom I believe was the morning manager and he said that they had accidentally been put out early and where subsequently taken back down and would be available again tomorrow.

So I'm heading there first thing tomorrow at 8:00 to grab some of the exclusives.

Sunday morning at Target proved fruitful again as all figures were out in full force. Three endcaps and a quarter-aisle space of figures and vehicles. Had Collection 1 waves 1 and 2 and some revision cases. Also had two PITs, many nightravens, 12" figures, battle brawlers(?), accelerator suit Duke, and the other kiddie stuff.

WM has set their SE roleplay set and combat heroes. Gonna go back later to see if figs out.

Marc I can't figure out why WM has had so much confusion getting this line out. I thought they sold more toys than any other store. You'd think Hasbro would have kept them in the loop.

WM finally got with it and put out RoC figs, but nothing outside what I've seen at Target

Kohls has figures as well, 10.99 buy one get one 1/2 off. I just got an Ice Viper and had them price-match Target's 6.99 special.

I was in my old stomping grounds yesterday and did a sweep of the town - nothing much to report.

Wal Mart, Target, K-mart South - all had the usual waves.

K-mart in town by the mall - had nothing out it was still in the back

Kroger near College Mall - 25th Destro, 25th Mutt, 25th SS Commando

Vintage Pheonix - Just some random 25th figures, The Cobra and Joe VvV Mech (should have bought the Joe One - love that Leatherneck sculpt),
Some wacky new sculpt vehicles that I don't even remember - one with a T-Crotch Heavy Duty and one with an O-ring VvV Dusty. I thought about them, but the 25th and ROC vehicles are so much better.
The Retaliator MIB - thought about this, but not a copter I was ever in love with. It was $55 - to much for me.
$35 or so I would have probably gotten it. Updraft was cool, though.

One cool score got a Red Hulk at Vintage Pheonix.

Target is getting a new Toy Dept Manager. This is unfortunate as the girl that was working there was really cool and helped me out a lot with scoring Joe stuff.

its her own fault. how dare she be helpful to a customer??

Went to Target tonite and they've done their reset. Found Helix, Pit Commando, Hawk, Elite Viper, and Flash. Had more as well. No Doctor though, wonder if this was a revision case?

That's a later assortment with Delta 6 Duke, RA Ripcord, Doc, PP Baroness, Artic Snakes and Stormy.
