It does kinda feel that way some days, no?

I was able to secure a Bludd today thanks to a local collector! It helps to build a network!

I've given up. If Target doesn't want me to buy one, I'm not going to do the heavy lifting any more to try to make it happen.
Debating whether I even care about my other classified figures enough to keep them or if I should try to at least get a % of my cash back on ebay. I'm trying to wait and see if YoJoe June turns out to be anything or if its just more depressing bullcrap to bring me down. But its hard not to just give up now. I mean, this is backwards, right? I mean, the person who wants my money should be doing the work, right? Not me?

Not having any luck here in Pinellas County. Sure missing popfindr right about now; nothing but empty pegs at about a dozen Target locations.
Buying toys is supposed to be fun... |

Whelp I walked into Target five minutes after a scalper and they let her buy the entire case. This was the last straw for me. I’m done. Greedy scalpers have ruined this hobby and Hasbro, Walmart, and Target seem to have no motivation to do anything to stop them. Why are these exclusives not one per customer? It’s ridiculous.

You can remove me from the list. I went to my two closest Targets this morning after being told they'd get Major Bludd in on the 19th. The first store said they arrived on the truck yesterday (understandable) and they only had one on hand remaining. We couldn't find it anywhere. The second store said they also got theirs yesterday and they all sold out immediately.
So my chances of getting one at Target are pretty much over because the West Michigan stores never seem to restock those hard-to-get exclusives. It went the same way with CI waves 1,2 and the MOTU Rise of Evil pack. I already placed my EBay order. I'll probably have to do another one for my kids because I feel bad telling them over and over again that Hasbro will eventually re-release these CI figures. On the plus side, I am glad my 8yo loves Roadblock so much because he was the easiest CI figure to get for a reasonable price on EBay! So yeah, feel free to scratch my name off. Good luck to everyone else!

Sorry to hear that. I was just commenting on another forum how few scalpers I see in my area, but clearly if you're buying a case of the same figure, chances are you're flipping them. And some Target locations are supposedly enforcing a one-per-customer limit... Who knows.
