I left Target PO’d today and pretty much accepting I may never find a lot of these Target Exclusives. Thanks a lot Hasbro.
I was told they had some coming in this week. I work for a living so I’m unable to check Target at 8:02 every morning. I had an employee scan the tags and they confirmed that they got Vipers yesterday and sold out that day. Got Firefly today and sold out. It’s frustrating that you can’t order them on Pulse. That is what Hasbro should do. I was just disgusted. Then.... I see JackWagons on Facebook trying to sell Cobra Island figures for $80 each. Hey, I’m an asshole, I found these for $20 each and I’m going to flip them for $80... I refrained from telling the guy what a sorry POS he was to scalp and claim to be a Joe Fan. Sorry for the rant but it just chaps my ass.

Yeah. Went today and there was a clearly prototypical Karen type person rolling out a cart and when I asked if they could look in the back for this (taking out my phone to show her the target app/dpci number she just went “we don’t pull things from the back.” And walked away... then another guy tried to help, but said there’s nothing and didn’t know when a truck would arrive....(Mesa, AZ)

I had an incident with an employee at a local store where they were helping another customer, and when they were done, I asked if an item was in stock. I pointed to a shelf tag and they scanned it, said gruffly "we don't have it" and walked away. Didn't even LOOK at me. No follow-up questions. I put that in a survey, and a day later the store issued me a $5 gift card.

Keep up the faith. As I posted on Tuesday. Though I took the day off the viper I found at Target was at 11am. I was shocked he was still there. I will say keep checking. The app said nothing about him being in stock.

Woof! Just went by the Target I've had the most luck at. They have no Vipers in stock or coming. Other than getting a single here and there this particular store has only gotten 2 cases. Not promising.

Snuck into a local target this AM and nothing, but had low hopes.
Also, I have two Vipers in the mail and they're both the only thing the USPS is perilously delayed on. My wife got two shipments from CA to PA in less time than these two are taking (and, with respect to firmpulse, this is all on USPS).

Friends of mine from Atlanta came up last weekend. Hitting the nearby Targets was one of our activities. Popfindr seems to have zeroed out on both figures for our area, but, at the second Target we arrived at, we found six Fireflies on the case. Everyone was able to get one, and we left the store with several more on the shelf. Didn't come across anything else, but employees were nice. One was a little stand offish when my buddy mentioned that the Target app didn't show any Joe figures in stock ("what app are you using? some of these apps people use are not accurate."), but, honestly, she seemed like someone who probably has had an encounter or two thanks to Popfindr.
They headed back to Atlanta on Monday. Hit all the Targets they passed for Vipers. No luck. Finally hit paydirt this morning, and all were happy. They even picked one up for me. I don't need more than one, as I'm pretty much all in on a Trooper/Infantry based Cobra Army. But I found it interesting that my friends didn't have any success at all until they abandoned the PopFindr, hit the store at opening and stand in line routine. Once they went old school with the hunt, they finally saw some success. |
