Oy. I checked the Target site for the Rattler and Conquest and a store a bit closer to me, the Maple Grove SuperTarget had them listed as 'Limited Availability', but it seems someone beat me to them since I called checking up on if they still had them and they said no after they punched in the DCPI code and stuff for me.
At least the guy was nice about it on the phone, and I am glad I called first instead of going since it would have been a 22 minute drive from where I live. Still bumming me out that these seem to be so dang rare in the stores they're exclusive to (Same goes for the Red Hulk Marvel Legends wave) At least I found myself the Destro/Iron Grenadier comic pack at the Coon Rapids Target today as they restocked the comic packs...still have that nice empty space set up for the jets too. >_O |

Okay. I was just at the Northtown Toys R Us and they have majorly restocked the Joes. I got myself my third and final BAT, but they still had a couple as well as a number of Snow Serpents, Flash, a Major Bludd, and the others of Wave 9 and the re-pack.
They also had a bunch of the two new 5 figure packs (Firefly vs. G.I.Joe Troopers and Crimson Guard) Still no sign yet of the new 3-packs though. ANyone find themselves a Rattler and/or Conquest in Target yet? |

Thanks for the tip. I got the last Snow Serpent, someone beat me by 10 minutes for the Bats. There are still plently of guys, however no Snow Serpents or Bats.
Knollwood, Edina and a few other Targets each had 2 this morning, however I'm sure they are all gone. Exclusive vehicles that is. |

Score!
Checking the Target site this morning around 3am and the Coon Rapids store had it listed as "Limited Availability", so right around opening I got there, quickly went in and got both the Rattler and Conquest. Seems like they only got one of each in. I didn't even look around for anything else. Just got the planes and left. I'm so glad I was able to cancel my online order, which wasn't due to come until November. Anyway, to anyone still looking, keep checking the Target site. They seem to be popping up in one store after another slowly. |

Congrats on your Rattler and Conquest find. I still haven't seen them in the stores. I haven't decided if I'll buy the Conquest but maybe if I see it on the shelf that will help me decide. I received 2 Rattlers from Target.com the other day and I think that is enough. I definitely don't have room to display more than new Rattlers. Even though I wouldn't mind having a whole squadron of them.

UPDATE! Been checking Target's website and suddenly as of Yesterday evening, many stores said "AVAILABLE" So I woke up at the crack of sanity, and ventured down to the South St. Paul store (Where I checked last sunday in the early morn and found none...not even a price placard) and was the 1st person there and there they were. Only 4 fit on the shelf...hopefully they have more in back to restock for other fans (scalpers be damned) but I bought 1 of each. I had to call my friend (Breaker82) and warn him to stop by the one close to him because that one had them too! So they're out there now folks! A just took a week for them to REALLY start hitting stores.
