It looks like Target has taken steps to thwart collectors that use Brickseek.com to track inventory and find the lowest prices in their respective areas. Now when you enter a DPCI or UPC, it simply states “in stock” or “out of stock” and lists ” N.A.” for the pricing. I guess we’ll have to see of this is a temporary or permanent update. Walmart inventory tracking appears to not be effected. Yet.
If you’re looking to add Hasbro’s new Obi Wan Kenobi and Yoda figures from The Last Jedi line look, be on the lookout as these have made it into St. Louis area Target stores now.
Good luck and let us know if you’ve found these at retail!
Last night we posted news of Target’s #sharetheforce REDcard promotion and in support of that effort, we are giving away one of the POP! Red Stormtroopers! Simply comment on this post with what POP! figure you’d like to see next in the line and we’ll pick a winner tomorrow (No bonus points for asking for Yak Face). U.S. residents only.
Once again, thanks to Target and Funko for making this available to us to giveaway.
Target, in partnership with Funko, is sending out to select accounts a couple of their upcoming exclusive POP! Red Classic Stormtroopers as part of their REDcard #sharetheforce campaign. The POP!s are scheduled to hit stores on October 1. Click on through to check out a few quick images.
On my morning travels today, I managed to stumble upon a shelf of the upcoming Target Exclusive 6″ Black Series First Order Stormtrooper Executioners. Don’t overpay on eBay, these guys will be plentiful, eventually.
A few weeks back, Jedi Temple Archives leaked an image and listing for a 6″ Black Series Deluxe Luke Skywalker with Ahch-To Island base coming exclusively to Target (DPCI and price can be found here). We now have intel regarding the (obvious) companion piece for Luke and it will be available at different retail destination later this year. Budget an extra $5 on top of Target’s deluxe figure price.
Joshua O. reports finding the Exclusive 6″ Black Series First Order Stormtrooper Executioner at his Target in Cuyahoga Falls, OH. Once again, sale was prohibited at checkout.
The upcoming newpaper insert for Target has made its way online and it confirms rumors and speculation that select stores will be opening at 12:01 am September 1. A list of participating stores will be available soon at www.Target.com/starwars. Also returning for Force Friday are discount coupons, this time instead of an instant discount, they redeemable for gift cards when thresholds of $50 or $100 are met.
UPDATE: Target has updated their site. Click find stores on Target.com to see if a store near you is open (12:01-2am) for Force Friday II.
