I AM SORRY, BUT WHAT'S WITH EVERYBODY TRYING TO PARLAY BARONESS INTO A 00 SNAKE EYES EXCLUSIVE TRADE????
Come on, no one is going to trade for that, Baroness will get you 2 Cobra Troopers max. Baroness has now flooded the market and she's lost her value. 00 SNake Eyes is a one time exclusive that won't be purchasable in the foreseable future guys! Sorry to burst your bubble... |

In case anyone is interested I finally received a response from Hasbro regarding my email that lambasted Hasbro's horrendous distribution practices for the Classified line as a whole, and the Target exclusives in particular. The consumer representative acknowledged that there has been "challenges" and that they would work with their retail partners to rectify these concerns. She further advised that Hasbro appreciates the fan community. Hopefully they are true to their word.

Found myself in Lake Jackson Texas again this week for more project follow up. I hit the same Target I’ve been lucky twice with already and found nothing but a single Duke. Can’t win them all I guess. Still had a pretty good week with the app.

The reason people are asking for the Baroness/00 trade is because Baroness was fetching quite a lot when she first landed and at some point, they were a fair one for one trade. Unfortunately for these people, by the time they got Baroness, the aftermarket values plummeted once everyone else flooded the market.
For someone that is more fair minded, they were both $40 retail before trading in the aftermarket and some people who pre-ordered many 00 may not have access to a Target. I traded a banged up Storm Shadow and Baroness for a 00 two weeks back. I'd still like an opener and would trade a Baroness plus another spare figure I have for another 00. If I don't get any takers, I can flip the Baroness for $90-100 shipped to help fund another 00 purchase.

This morning I had one errand to run and drop some items off with my sister. On the way home I was going to pass the Target closest to me. This is the Target which I found and purchased...
1. Cobra Island Roadblock 8/10 with some help from associates at lunchtime. 2. Cobra Commander the week after 8/10 after 5pm. (it wasn't there at lunch but was the only figure there with a couple more CI Roadblocks. 3. Cobra Island Beach Head 8/31 after I tried to order pick up and it was canceled saying not in stock, only to find it there right after 5pm. 4. Gung Ho 9/9/2020 right after 5pm when I saw stock go from 6 to 5 on Popfinder. ....and then today, on the way home I checked Popfindr and it showed 6 in stock. Odd, it did not show any at 8am when I checked. I went back to the aisle and there was nothing on the pegs. I asked an associate in the DVD section to look up 087-16-3310. He said, "Well we do have some which came on the truck today. Aren't there any in the aisle?" I said no. We walked to the aisle and I showed him where they would be. He asked what was I looking for and I said the Red Ninja #08. He asked to see a picture and I showed him one from the Target App I have saved in my "favorites". He said, "Let me go look in the back, it may take a few minutes but let me look." Off he went. Almost ten minutes goes by and he came out holding the Red Ninja with a smile on his face and said, "Here you go." I thanked profusely and said have a good day. I checked out and that was that. So I am glad I have one Red Ninja. Now the odd thing, knowing there was nothing on the peg, and I didn't need a Gung Ho or Cobra Commander so I didn't ask for them, why not bring the rest of the case out and put them on the peg? Just made me go hm when I thought about it. It was very nice of him to go back, find it, and bring out the Red Ninja though. |

Fair, fair. Given the state of the world in general, this isn't on the radar. But the general point stands - this was handled incredibly poorly.
