Out of the three closest targets closest to me two of them have never shown anything about that policy. The third one puts signs up with the Star Wars figures any time they have one of the exclusives.

I always thought it was ridiculous to have that policy when the scanners tell you if they have it in the back in the first place. If they don't want people to ask, they should set it so those "collectible products" always scan as "No Data Found" or something.

My Target hasn't adopted that rule yet but I've heard about it. It also helps when you know ppl that work at Target and collect toys too. I have 2 guys at my local Target that go in the back and get anything I want.

I too got a case of exclusive vehicles out of the back when they first hit. I asked a girl in clothes because no one in toys would help me...

Call and write corporate to complain. I actually had gotten two of the 25th exclusive vehicles but I needed a HISS tank to complete the set, I stopped by the Target we have in our mall and checked to see if they had them, sure enough the scanner said they were in the stock room. I asked some associate about getting the one I needed he said there was a release date for them, at which point I pointed out I had the AWE striker and repaint of the Sharc already from another Target. I then asked him what the release date was and he said he didn't know, and some of the people on here complain about Wal-mart associates being unhelpful and clueless! Anyway, I rolled my eyes walked out drove over to the new Super Target asked a guy, he radios to the stockroom to have some girl look for them. I go back there too meet her and she says yes she has them. I ask her how many shes says a lot I ask and get two cases. i walk up front with them still in the shipping case, pay for all six and leave. This is always the first Target I check now. I actuall just went there two hours ago to buy my Fiancee Lego Batman for the Wii.

You right about Dumfries and Manassas West, by far the two best in the area. I may work for Wal-Mart but I love these two Targets and have bought most of my Joes from there and Big Bad Toy Store

I think the policy is good; mostly because I'm not the "talk to the toy aisle person" type. LOL. I am more of a "oh well, no luck today... will try again later... I'm hungry... need to eat something..." type. LOL.

theyve had this for years because of hot wheels collectors or scalpers asking for a case just to get the treasure hunt. some only allow a limit of 5 and no duplicates.
