I’ve read a report from a local collector friend, “Bob Dylan SW fan”, that the Clone Wars Republic Attack Shuttle has hit retail at Target and is priced at $79.99 (087-06-1822). Also, large quantities of Vintage wave 7 have hit several Target stores in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. But, for me the hunt continues….
While venturing out today in search of TVC wave 7 (which I didn’t find, BTW) I noticed that the Target store in my area have lowered their TVC pricing to match the Clone Wars and Saga Legends assortments. Hopefully this lower price will clear out the dregs and make way for new product.
No, they’re no leaving Target’s aisle yet, especially at this new price. As reported by our friends at Jedi Temple Archives, I too ran into the $16.29 Geonosis Arena Sets (previously $12.99) at my local MN Target. As a consolation, both Clone Wars Geonosis 2-packs were marked down to $11. Hey, let’s keep a little optimism here. : )
