It's nuts. Went to the site to check my lone PP Viper, still says "Coming soon"...sure.
On a separate note, pulling up the Target site, it says "3 days of Black Friday deals ends today!" Uh, they're not Black Friday deals if they're over a month-&-a-half removed from Thanksgiving week, Target...that's just A SALE lol Thinking back to the dark days of the Trooper, and I?m of the opinion that it sucked a lot of positivity out of the line. When Classified dropped everyone was jazzed and the main discussion was between those who wanted 6? ARAH and those who wanted something different. Regardless, most folks were just plain excited. Then the Target exclusives were announced and the Tar-pocalypse began. After that the feel of the boards changed dramatically. Folks started telling stories about people following trucks. It was nuts. Kind of have to hand it to the scalpers with their bots. I’m a lifelong Joe fan and I didn’t think those figs would be that hot but scalpers were forward thinking on that.

I just checked. Original order date for us was October 23rd so we are at not quite a year. Target CI figs have been bungled from the start.

That's what I dud. The emails go to my wife's email because that's the account set up. However, she does not check her email as frequently as I do and might "forget" to remind me lol. So I went whe. I saw it here and ANOTHER delay approval for TFOB. That's 3rd time. I did have CI Vipers on backorder for a year though lol

Crazy that TF Outback preorders are selling for around $55 right now on eBay.
He was up for preorder fucking forever. He wasn't like Mindbender or Serpentor who came and went right away. But Target decided to cancel those who didn't respond to some mystery email that some people may not have gotten or seen. Last edited by Trigger2K; 10-08-2022 at 12:42 PM.. |

The BAT was just available for preorder, which might support your suspicion.
With Outback's status being "stock" and no longer preorder, I wonder if anyone has actually received one from Target. It seems unlikely that the status changed in that way and zero units have gone anywhere. I tweeted the pic of my backorder status to Hasbro and Target this morning, but I do not expect any replies. |

Wow, Target needs to get their act together. I wandered into Toys R Us yesterday (I live in Canada) and they had around ten each of Outback, PP Viper and PP BAT. And they were all priced at $45. I left empty handed and shaking my head.

Plus, he hasn't even shipped from Pulse yet. After Pulse ships him, they will probably have an instock sale as well.
