The sca-
The resellers are gonna hate me for this, but the rest of you will love me. If you're an in-and-out kind of shopper like I am, you might be walking into Targets that HAVE the vehicles but still missing them. Why? Many Targets are ONLY placing them on the checklanes. If you DON'T see them on the shelves, go to the front of your store and scan the checkout lanes. There should be a Hasbro action figure endcap featuring The Joe, SW and TF exclusives. You're welcome. Now go forth and prosper. (And someone find me a couple HISS Tanks, willya? Some intrepid army builder has emptied my local stores of them).

Yeah, but when you check the DCPI in their system, and it says:
"Stockroom: NO Shelf: N/A" ...checking endcaps won't do ya much good... T_T" |

Hasbro is even calling them "check lane vehicles".

Nice in theory, but I recall last year's Order 66 figure packs were also supposed to be in the check-out lanes. I only ever saw this at one store. Everywhere else either tossed them on the regular shelves, or they never made it out of the backroom. I keep checking the front ends of every Target I go to and I see no toys whatsoever.

Mine doesn't have any toys near their checkouts ever. But I found a nice lady in electronics that helps me out when it comes to getting stuff from the back. Bought a full set of these and several extra Hiss Tanks. (Sorry Omega)
Picked up a second set for a fellow Tanker in Canada yesterday.

Well I just took a trip to target at lunch. Had the exclusives in the back, but since I already picked up a set last Friday I didn't bother. With my pre-order to BBTS last night, along with my other pre-ordered stuff from BBTS, and the three packs TRU's I'm hunting I can't afford to army build those. I may pick up another set, but not right now.
I went to the scanner and punched in the numbers for the singles and none in stock. A little tip to those of you searching. If you see a Gray "dot" sticker on the price tag it means the item is out of stock. They know this and more are on order, although sometimes they forget to remove them when they come back into stock. |

Hopefully there'll be plenty to go around as of the shelf date. |
