Can you tell me more about that? My GF is at school in Orlando and she looks for stuff for me when she can but she would love to know what's out and where so she doesn't waste her time looking at empty pegs.
We both have yet to find any Torpedos or Armored CCs... Thanx! -"DJ CRUSH" |

There's a smaller black and white sticker...possibly already seperated from the 'Conveyable Flow' sticker. It's in the upper right hand corner of said sticker. It should say T 4/13. It also says 'Purge 4/4/08', presumably meaning they have to be purged out of that particular DC by 4/4. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but that may mean a one time push only on these. And also, the 4/13 date is a reset date set by Target, not Hasbro. If it was a Hasbro street date, the box would state something like 'Not to be Sold before x/x/xx'.

Just a heads up to anybody on these forums who live in the central Iowa area... Several of the Des Moines area Target stores have received cases of the 25th Anniversary vehicles. The first store I visited (Merle Hay Mall for those in the area) didn't have any, but a helpful employee at Guest Services hooked me up with a list of stores that had several boxes in stock. She printed a list of the stores and suggested I call the store and have them place the item on hold before heading out.
Per her instructions, I called one of the stores on the list, asked for customer service, explained that the employee at the first store told me to call to place the items on hold, gave him the DCPI number and patiently waited for his response. He called the stockroom, they pulled a case and had it sitting at Guest Services when I got there. They even let me keep the case they came in. Probably the best customer service I've ever experienced. So a heads up to any Des Moines folks, the stores which showed the vehicles in stock as of last night were: Valley West Drive (12), South Side (12) and Urbandale (15). I'm guessing the other stores will have them in stock soon. Happy Hunting!!! |

I live in southern NH and figured I'd head out and give my luck a try. Since I had hunted the local and nearby Target's over the weekend, I figured I'd head out the nearest one I didn't hit yet down in Salem, NH. Checked the DCPI... YES they have them in stock. So I hunted down the next associate I could and explained that I couldn't find an item on the shelf and it's listed as being in the stock room. She asked me for the DCPI and I gave it to her, she checked to make sure it wasn't a Hot Wheels (wtf is with that anyways)... she then tells me she'll be right back and goes to pull them for me (I'm damn excited now)... Then I hear some commotion from the back area (oh shit I'm thinking) and out walks this dude saying "sorry sir, we can't allow you to have these until street date".... ugh, foiled again....
..But... On the way back home the wife wanted to check out the Target nearest our home for a few things she couldn't find at the Salem store, so I'm like ok (totally pissed at the day already by this point), whatever. While in there, I figured I'd check the DCPI (during which I realized I had actually memorized the damn thing.... ) but wasn't being too optimistic since they didn't have any 2 days ago. DCPI comes up "In Stockroom: Yes" Hear we go again, I thought... so I wandered over to the nearest cutest associate, flirted some and mentioned that I was looking for an item that wasn't on the shelf. Gvae her the DCPI and she did some checking on her handheld and said "I'll be right back"... Hereit come I thought... but she comes out a couple minutes later with the box! Wooo-hoooo, ugh time though, only $10 in the wallet hadn't refreshed at the ATM since earlier in the day... okay, so it's only 1 and Grand Slam won on "original 13" basis alone and I'll be back later I said to myself. But, wait... get out to the car to wait for the wife (you guys understand this part...) She comes out 15-20 minutes later and asked if I picked up the Joe items I needed. I told her I only had enough cash for 1 AND SHE HANDS ME $20 to run back in and get the other 2. Got all 3 and am all happy now... |
